ERG Mode on Wahoo Kickr feels much harder?

When you use ERG mode on the Wahoo Kickr does the power feel harder compared to what it feels like on the road? I had this experience and even noticed I had to put out 10-20 watts more than the ERG mode was set at to keep a good cadence on ERG mode. I since discovered this setting that has made my specific sessions using the Wahoo Kickr + Bolt head unit more in line with what the power reads and feels like on the road where I use a Quarq or Stages L/R power meter. 

I know there are many more tricks and tips to discover with indoor setup. What about you? What set-up or settings have you found work best for indoor training? Please leave a comment and please share.
