Be interesting to know how the smart trainers compare with powermeters.
I presume someone like DCRain has been testing them?

My neo seems bang on.
No reason to not be if calibrated. -
He has tested the shit out of them. Direct drive turbos tend to read a few watts lower because of drive train inefficiencies.

my Neo is consistently a couple of watts lower than my quarq d zeros looking at average over a longer session (2.5-4 hours), never looked at the shorter ones, I resume this is because of losses in the drive chain between the crank and the rear hub.
I don't let it worry my pretty little head, as there's not a lot going on in there most of the time, but even less after 4 hours on the turbo...

I’ve got a crank based PM so no issue for me there.
Unless one turns out to be wildly inaccurate.
