Cell Juniors are equal to Perfect Cell?

Where does it say that each of the Cell Juniors are equal in power to Cell? Is it in one of the Daizenshuus?

Daizenshuu 7 says they have power equal to Vegeta and Trunks. That's all I know of.

It's from the Special Attack Dictionary:
Birthing Cell Juniors
First Appearance: Chapter 406
Category: ability
People: Cell
Special Characteristics: This is a technique where perfect-form Cell uses his own abilities to create children from out of the tail which he had earlier used to absorb life-energy life. Cell can freely control the number of children created. Each of the children then has roughly the same amount of power and speed as Cell. This special ability could be called a more developed version of the Namekian Piccolo’s ability to create offspring. (Daizenshuu 2, p.214)
So it says they have "roughly" the same power and speed as Cell. I think it's just talking about how the Cell Juniors are closer to perfect Cell than they are any of Cell's previous forms, or to guys like SSj2 Gohan, Boo, etc.

I would place Cell Jr's battle power around Super Vegeta/Super Trunks range.

Perfect Cell (Supressed) = Cell Jr

No way the Cell Juniors are equal in power to Cell.
Piccolo Daimao's spawn were no where near his equal, which is the only real comparison we have.

It would be hilarious if all the Cell Jrs just turned on Cell and ripped him apart though.

Did Perfect Cell say "Cell Jr's power level is same as himself". If that is the case Cell Jr and Perfect Cell are equal in my opinion.

Same as Vegeta and Trunks. Don't recall the exact wording, but I remember him also saying something along the lines of "they're not as strong as I, but they are still my children after all," implying that they are weaker, but not by a lot.

If Cell Jr.s are equal to suppressed Perfect Cell either Vegeta/Trunks are stronger than Goku is or equal to half-Goku. We know neither the cases is true since Vegeta/Trunks are in-between 50%-100% of Goku. Thus the Cell Jr.s are in-between the very first time Perfect Cell's appearance and suppressed Perfect Cell.
