Watt-hours is a perfectly pragmatic unit. Measure instantaneous power and multiply by a common human unit of time. It's easy to compare.

- ben_w 2y agoPart of me is tempted to suggest kilograms as a unit of energy. 428.6 kg relativistic mass-energy equivalent: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=10.7PWh%2F%28c%5E2%29 https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=10.7PWh%2F%28c%5E2%29 But then, I am a silly person.

- XorNot 2y agoCall the unit "Kilogram-Joules", abbreviate as KgJ and it works pretty damn well and unambiguously. The problem is we don't live in a society powered by matter-antimatter annihilation reactions, or black evaporation so it's not really useful - unlike say, the electron-volt which at least serves physicists nicely.
