Commenting on eSteem app at times gives you an extra upvote! Keep going.
With your question regarding Steem Power, there's Steem Power which you earned, and there's what was delegated to you perhaps at 27.5 at times. The Steem Power you earned will not go away unless you power down (or withdraw). The Steem Power delegated will decline if you have gone inactive for a while. The latter is just my observation.
A great answer nonetheless. Thanks for the upvote pal. Every bit helps towards adding SP ya know!
I was hoping the SP never went away, and when SP is "powered down" it is converted to regular STEEM? Which can then be traded?
The SP delegated will likely go away or at least go down. But your own SP earned by yourself will not go away. If you powered it down, it will be converted to STEEM which you can either trade or sell.
