dyno
Engine output tester
A dyno is a dynamometer—a device that measures force, torque, or power output, typically for engines or motors.
Mechanics use a dyno to test vehicle performance: We put the car on the dyno to see how much horsepower it's actually making.
In rock climbing, a dyno is a dynamic move where the climber leaps to grab a distant hold, momentarily airborne: She stuck the dyno on her third attempt.
