Excellent question. That depends on the voltage, for 120 VAC, the answer is 156 watts. PIE, Power (in watts) = current (amps) X Voltage . For 12 VDC, 15.6 watts. An interesting asside, if you ohms check a 120 watt (should draw 1 amp) incandesent light bulb, it will read much less than you would expect (120 ohms). Turns out, the filament at room temp is much more conductive.

∙ 6y agoYou can't convert that, since they measure different things (watts for power, amperes for current).They are related as follows:
power = current x voltage x power factor
In units:
watts = amperes x volts x power factor
For DC, you can ignore the power factor. For AC, you can often ignore the power factor as well, at least as a first approximation.

The differene between amps and watts?
Amps are units of current, watts are units of power. Watts are the product of Amps times Volts. Watts = Amps x Volts.
How many watts does it take to run watersoftener?
Just take the voltage and multiply it by the amps. That should give you a close approximation of the watts used. For instance, 117 volts at 4.5 amps = 5265 watts.
How many watts in a curling iron?
The current draw in amps mulitiplied by the voltage.
How many volts in 6VA?
There are zero volts in 6 VA. The VA stands for Volt Amps. VA for all intents and purposes is the same as watts. You need to state an amperage to find the voltage. Volts = Watts/Amps.
Calculate watts from volts and amps?
Just multiply. (Note, this assumes no phase difference.) <<>> The formula you are looking for is W = I x E. Watts = Amps x Volts.
How many watts of electric on a 13 amp fuse 240 volts?
You need the formula: Amps * Volts = Watts But you get to do the math.
How do you compute the 2000 watts in 220 volt to how many amps?
watts = volts * amps--> Amps = watts/ volts therefore; 2000/220= 9.09 amps
How many amps is 9000 watts?
9000 watts is zero amps. Amps are the product of amps times volts. Without a voltage stated an answer can not be given. I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts.
How many Watts are in 730 amps?
There are zero watts in 730 amps. Watts is the product of amps times volts. As you can see without a voltage no answer can be given.
How many amps with 70 watts 13.8 Volts dc?
Watts = Volts * Amps Therefore: 70 Watts / 13.8 Volts = 5.07 Amps
How many amperes in a watt and how many watts in a volt?
Amps, volts and watts are interrelated, but you need to do a little math. Amps * Volts = Watts
How many watts in a 115 volt refrigerator?
How many Amps is the fridge pulling? Multiply the Amps by the 120V circuit you're plugging into and you'll get your Watts.
How many watts in 40 amps?
I t depends. Watts = Amps times volts. 40 amps x 120 volts =4800 watts or 40 Amps x 12 volts = 480 watts.
How many watt in amp?
It's watts divided by volts equals amps. Example: 1200 watts at 120 volts is 10 amps. To get the watts if you know the amps, multiply the amps times the volts. 10 amps at 120 volts is 1200 watts.
At 12 volts how many watts is 30 amps?
Watts is volts times amps, so 12 x 30 = 360 watts
How many amps are in 2000 watts?
To obtain the amperage from 2000 watts the voltage is needed. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts.
How many volts it takes to cause a current of 1.95 amps to exist in a 200 watt lamp?
The formula to calculate the relationship between amps, volts and watts is Volts X Amps = Watts or Volts = Watts / Amps or Amps = Watts / Volts therefore; 200 Watts divided by 1.95 Amps is 102.5641 Volts.
