    I disagree. Joules are really hard to understand to laypeople. Watt-hours directly relate to the power of a device without conversion, and can even be really translated in terms of power bill.

    3.6 megajoules? Eh, I guess that’s maybe a lot? Or not?

    1000 watt-hours? Oh, like running a microwave for a whole hour? Dang that’s a LOT!
