Heft

[Count Bassy]

Heft: Is it measured in RMS, or Peak?🙂

[PaulThePlug]

Heft... i think its like Torque... and i think Peak with the SI unit of ooomph.

 

So 'x' amount of 'Heft Ooomphs Peak'... (HOP)

 

I seem to remember reading it in a Trace Elliot Brochure back in the 80's...

I believe this is now oookph in the metric era? 😃

Is it not measured in 'trouser flaps'?

As in 'trouser flapping goodness'?

[Lozz196]

Yep, get out the Flapometer

[Bassfinger]

I still use the imperial units for heft, you know, 144 strains to a grunt, 12 grunts to a strain, 20 strains to a heft, 105 hefts to a prolapse.

Hasn't it been out of production since Trace Elliot moved to The States?

Super useful, thanks. But finding myself having a hefty prolapse with the first two: 144 strains to a grunt AND 12 grunts to a strain??

Imperial units make perfect sense!

[BigRedX]

It's done by the PA.

Can excessive heft result in unfortunate exhibition of cleft?

[paul_5]

Alas, not so in my case.

If it went to the Deep South it would now be hay-eft.
