Determining Trading Power of deposited weeks at RCI

Sand Pebble in Solana Beach, CA
I have 650K bi-annual Wyndham points I purchased at Bali Hai a couple of years ago. I'm finding I end up using the majority at Wyndham Oceanside which is often difficult to secure in the summer months and that's the only time I can travel with 2 little ones.
Additionally, I own 2 weeks at a private timeshare at Solana Beach, CA (Sand Pebbles) that allows depositing weeks into RCI system.
I'm trying to find out what the value of those 2 weeks would be if I transfer into RCI. The CS rep gave me a value of 39 Trading Power for 1 of those weeks next June, but I have no clue how to value that, as she said I could only determine that after I actually deposited the week.
If I look at this site: https://planneratheart.com/rci-resort-directory-how-to/ , it indicates that I should see an Exchange Planner on the RCI site to help calculate past Trading power values at different resorts. However, when I enter RCI through the Wyndham portal, I can't find Exchange Planner anywhere.
For reference, I've typically sold off the Solana Beach unused weeks on RedWeek so trying to compare value of depositing them into RCI system.
Any clues how to assess?
 
I don't really know how to help you, specifically, but you have to have a weeks account to see the trading power. Sand Pebbles in Solana Beach CA, what is the resort code? Is it 5096? If it's 5096 and you have a week 26 to deposit for 2026, you would get 54 TPU's. That's going to get an exchange about anywhere you want to exchange. It's great trading power.

Do you have a fixed week? What is the resort code? This information is important for determining what you would get for exchange.

Sorry, was traveling on business so need to catch up.
I did confirm Sand Pebbles was 5096, so given your feedback above, sounds like I could get a solid alternative if I deposit, in comparison to selling it on RedWeek for ~$800 which has been around the average for the 1br units there.
