How to convert microwatts to horsepower

1 µW = 1.3410220896 × 10⁻⁹ hp, so multiply by 1.3410220896 to go from microwatts to horsepower (mechanical, 550 ft·lbf/s). Going the other way, 1 hp = 745,699,871.582 µW.

hp = µW × 1.3410220896
µW = hp × 745,699,871.582

Worked example:

1 µW = 1.3410220896e-9 hp
5 × 1.3410220896e-9 = 6.70511044798e-9 hp
