high-power

Very strong output

High-power describes something with great force, intensity, or capability.

A high-power rifle delivers significant energy; a high-power laser produces an intense beam.

The term extends to people and situations involving influence or prestige: high-power executives, high-power negotiations.

In optics, high-power magnification provides significant enlargement.

The hyphenated form typically modifies nouns; without the hyphen, high power stands alone: a telescope of high power.
