Watts ↔ kWh calculator

Watts ↔ kWh calculator: mAh measures charge, Wh measures energy.

Your result

Complete the fields and calculate.

Calculation method and formula

Watts × time → kWh: Power or energy × Time period [h] ÷ 1000; kWh ÷ time → watts: Power or energy × 1000 ÷ Time period [h]

Understand the inputs

Direction
Choose the matching option; it determines the table value or calculation variant.
Power or energy
Minimum 0. Use a measured value or your own assumption.
Time period
Unit: Std.. Minimum 0.01. Use a measured value or your own assumption.

Assumptions and limitations

mAh measures charge, Wh measures energy. Voltage is therefore needed for energy comparisons. Efficiency, temperature, aging and charging curves can differ from the constant model.

The formula uses the specified units. Displayed numbers are rounded; whole packs, item counts and full time periods may also be rounded within the calculation.
