These units exchange to:
-1 Pneum (pressure) = 60 PSI (pressure the piston operates at)
-1 Pneum (length) = 24 3/8" (Measured stroke Pneumasiah)
-1 Pneum (time) = Time Pneumasiah takes to extend 1 Pneum(length) at 1 Pneum(pressure), not officially measured yet
-1 Pneum (mass) = Weight of Pneumasiah, not officially measured yet
Funny quote related:
"how fast does our robot accelerate?" "Oh, about 6 Pneums per Pneum squared"
