Calculate Power from RT Data

I searched “calculate power” on the “Project Forums” and did not find any help.

Using RT Data, I calculate battery electrical power as:

input_voltage * current_in

I calculate motor electrical power as:

input_voltage * duty_cycle * current_motor

Calculated this way, my motor power is about 1.4 higher than battery power which indicates to me that current_motor is peak while Google searchs indicate it is RMS.
