Show the working
  1. 1 hp = 745699.871582 mW
  2. 1 × 745699.871582 = 745699.871582 mW

How to convert horsepower to milliwatts

1 hp = 745,699.871582 mW, so multiply by 745,699.871582 to go from horsepower (mechanical, 550 ft·lbf/s) to milliwatts. Going the other way, 1 mW = 1.3410220896 × 10⁻⁶ hp.

mW = hp × 745,699.871582
hp = mW × 1.3410220896

Worked example:

1 hp = 745699.871582 mW
5 × 745699.871582 = 3728499.35791 mW
