I am reminded of the company some years back that marketed "45 Watt
CB Radios". Eventually, the FCC caught wind of this and inquired
about their enterprise. It turns out they had beefed up the audio
output stage of one of their existing models until it was capable of
putting out 45 watts. It didn't make a lot of engineering sense,
but OTOH they were sure selling a lot of radios.
YMMV,
