Cheers.
I've got an old CycleOps Fluid² trainer, no idea how it performs when heated up.
I'll give it a go.

As ever with these things, It'll be about consistency. So make sure the tyre pressure and the roller contact are kept the same and your numbers should be ok :-)
I think the lever on that trainer is pretty good for consistent tyre/roller contact?

I had the same set up for many years until I got a PM and still got a lot out of training with it.
Its a big brand trainer so Trainerroad has seen plenty of data to draw its power curve.

I used my Kinetic trainer with virtual power for a few years and haven't seen much disparity since swapping to a trainer with built in power meter
I think it depends quite a bit on your particular trainer and how consistent it stays when it heats up
