Galactic black holes release an unknown fraction of their accreting matter and energy in the form of collimated outflows (or jets) that travel into the surrounding medium. Black Hole X-ray Binaries (BHXBs) are the essential laboratories for understanding the overall physics of the accretion process in these systems, and have provided us with a wealth of understanding of, for example, the properties of the accretion disc. Measuring as accurately as possible the total power content of the jets and hence their importance with respect to the accretion process in terms of energetics, is a primary aim of high-energy astrophysics.
