Personal experience...  TA33M will handle legal limit key down no problem.
TA33JR will fry the drive element traps at 1kW RTTY, as a friend of mine
unfortunately discovered some years ago.   The JR will handle a kW on
sideband - have done it many times.   TA33JR's strength is its portability
anyway, not its performance.  TA33M strength is its durability, performance
is on par with other trapped tribanders.

>>  From my Mosley catalogs the TA-33 jr is rated at 0.5kw cw, the MP-33 is
rated at 1.1kw cw,  the TA-33M, TA-34, TA-53, TW-33, CL-33, CL-36, are rated
at 1.5 kw cw and the PRO-57,67 are rated at 2.5kw cw.  Yet except for the
TA-33 jr they are all rated for 600w RTTY.
