The accepted unit of measure referring to the degree of offense of an odor.
One would have to reach the stench of ten hobos in order to gain a measurment of 10 hobo power.
i.e.
8-10 hobo power(or HP) may describe the exhaust fumes from the bus that just pulled in front of you.
A good broccoli fart might reach 25 hobo power.
At 50 hobo power there is projectile vomiting.
100 hobo power has never been documented in nature. It is theoretical at this point in science, much like absolute zero. It is widely assumed that if one were to experience 100 hobo power, its effects would surely be fatal.

I swear when Jimmy pulled that Yokozuna on my face, I almost puked. His ass must be about 45 hobo power.

As the previous definition mentions, it is a measurement of stench created by Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew a few years ago on Loveline.
The scale ranges from 1-100. As as benchmark, 50 hobopower is strong enough to make a person vomit. 100 hobopower is only a theoretical concept is not actually attainable (just like absolute zero temperature).

Cousin Sal cut a savage fart and everyone in the van threw up, it was probably a good 55-60 hobopower.

A term coined by TV and radio personality Adam Corolla.
The level of stink/stench that can be given off by a human being. The scale goes from zero (they have no scent) to 50, which according to the creator of the term 'hobo power', is theoretical. In his own words, "If you experienced 50 hobo power, you would die."

One of the people who called in to the Loveline radio show explained he takes care of a mentality retarded man. He went home one night after his shift was over, and the next worker on the shift turned the heater up in the patient's bathroom. During the night, the patient went to the toilet and deficated, but missed and got some on the heater. The poor caller had to clean up the mess the next morning, and nearly threw up. Adam Corolla pegged the hobo power of the incident at about 26 or 27, stating that if the caller had slipped in the fecal matter, it would have been boosted to over 30.
