I have a fluid trainer. I have a Power Tap. The power it takes to do the same RPM in the same gear varies based on temperature and it just varies by 50 W or so. My wife has a fluid trainer. The same RPM is different on hers.

So I guess a number way above based on the 1st data - under 300W.

Yet two guys within 5 years apart in age about the same weight and body composition that ride about the same amount - put out a closer number to each other than two fluid trainers.
