I think average shinigami captains would increase ten fold.

Mid level shinigami captains would increase by 10-15times.

High level shinigami captains would increase by 15-20 times

i think it all depends on how strong their base shikai is ...
ex: yamamoto's shikai is way stronger than any other captains shikai n even bankai also IMO ..
so depending upon their reaitsu n base shikai their bankai would proportionately increase

Agreement. Maybe has something to do with base stats x spiritual pressure or something...

In terms of power up there's no real scale you can measure with to be fair as the bankai's all vary in power.

the zanpakto is a reflection of a shinigamis soul . Tosen bankai creats absolute darkness , which given his blindness fits him perfect . Its kind of hard to compare different bankais . They are all so different

There is no set number of times that it increases their base power. But a general rule of thumb is that it increases their battle potential by 10 times. Again, this is only a rule of thumb - a ballpark. What matters is what the Bankai is and how it's used in battle.

Refer to this page for what I just said:

Strictly going by the manga... I would say 5x-10x times stronger but it only seems like Ichigo is the only character that only gets physical enhancements as a result of his bankai.
