I apologize to all for my above post....I was writing it as I was having my 
morning coffee, I hit the wrong key,
and it went out before it was finished.  :-(

It should have read:

Try taking 3 different photos (Polaroids will do), at a 60th, 125th and 250th 
of a second.  Will will see that
there will be a significant exposure differences between them (due to long 
flash durations).  In fact, usually,
the less expensive flashes will have longer durations than the better ones.  
Which is to say that they get they
power by flash duration rather than initial power.

As far as 'specs' go, this would not be the first time that manufacturers have 
fudged them.

Again, sorry about the mis-post.
