saveSource: https://cdn.shopifycdn.net/s/files/1/2672/8290/files/Zeus_VTX_800mw_V2.0.json?v=1635392484 — Copied from the maker's Betaflight file Zeus_VTX_800mw_V2.0.json, linked from the Zeus VTX 800mW product page ('You can find VTX Table here'). Five bands as the file names them: BOSCAM_A, BOSCAM_B, FATSHARK, RACEBAND and IMD6 (letter I, 5362-5621 MHz, the band others call LOWRACE); no Band E, which is how the page's '5 bands, 40 channels' comes out. Power 25/100/200/400/800 matches the page's PIT/25/100/200/400/800mW; the page names the protocol IRC Tramp, so the values are milliwatts.. Transmitting is only legal on the frequencies and power your country allows; see VTX frequency bands.

Where this data comes from
Cited to HGLRC, whose own labelled block reads: 'Model: Zeus VTX 800mW, Built-in Microphone, Input voltage: DC 6-26V, Output voltage: 5V/2A, Antenna interface: MMCX, Output power: PIT/25/100/200/400/800mW, Frequency: 5.8GHz 5 bands, 40 channels, Installing Hole: 20X20/30X30mm.M3, Size: 37mm x 37mm x 5mm, Weight: 4.8g, Protocol: IRC tramp', with a current draw per step (PIT@94mA, 25mW@169mA/14dBm, 100mW@199mA/20dBm, 200mW@216mA/23dBm, 400mW@279mA/26dBm, 800mW@387mA/29dBm) - conducted milliwatts with a dBm equivalent, not an EIRP. The 800 mW, 40 channels, MMCX and 4.8 g the retail listing gave us are all confirmed. mount_mm gains the second pattern the board is named for: this is the 'Smart Mounting' Zeus, whose ears carry both a 20x20 and a 30x30 hole set (both visible in HGLRC's own board photographs), and the scrape had only the 20x20 from the retail title.
