So after the next revolution it will all be 100V or 1000V (and a week will be 10 days)?

- strbean 4y ago128V ftw.
- a9h74j 4y agoAnd for an upper limit: 18000V / 137 = 131.4V
- eru 4y agoOf course, not. That would be silly. The Volt is an arbitrary unit. After the revolution, we'd be using natural units. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units Basically, you'd express things in terms of speed of light, electron charge, planck length etc. In this case, [Planck energy / electron charge] might be an appropriate unit. (It would also be a pretty useless unit, because it's absurdly large compared to everyday voltages.) See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units
- a9h74j 4y agoPretty sure that David Graber demonstrated that there have been societies which used Natural units.
- imtringued 4y agoAncient Egypt apparently used something very similar to the meter.
