    “3.7 MWh of power annually” - With authors like this, it’s no wonder some people find math and science confusing. I actually thought Toms Hardware was a quality site.

      Toms used to be solid. I can’t place my finger on it, but sometime around the 2010’s everyone stopped using them as references and they slid somewhat into obscurity.

      Ok technically it’s energy not power, big deal. Sometimes electricity is colloquially called power.

        Both energy and power relate to electricity formally. Power is energy over time. There is no reason to confuse the two in writing, especially if they know enough to use MWh.
