Volts are an electrical measure of potential difference and Watts are a measure of power.
The high school physics way of calculating the power (P) in watts, would be to multiply the given current (I) by the voltage (v).
P = V * I
From Ohms Law we know that V = I * R,
where R is the resistance of the electrical circuit given in Ohms, so we could also state that
P = (I * R) * I = I2 * R
So you have two equations there that should be useful.

∙ 14y agoWatts and volts measure different properties and cannot be converted. If the current and wattage are know then the voltage can be calculated.

∙ 15y agoBefore you can do this you need to know what the amperage of the circuit is. Watts = amps x volts.

Can an 18 watt bulb be used in low voltage outdoor lighting?
If it is an 18 watt 12 volt bulb, then yes. But an 18 watt 120 volt bulb - then no.
Is 120 volts kind of the same as 1850 watts?
No, Volt and Watt is two diffrent things. 1 Volt * 1 Ampare = 1 Watt
What is the amount of power consumed by a 60 watt 220 volt lamp when it is connected across 110 volt supply?
What is the amount of power consumed by a 60 watt 220 volt lamp when it is connected across 110 volt supply?
What is the relationship between a volt an amp and a watt?
Voltage times amps equals watts. A watt is sometimes called a volt-amp because one volt times one amp equals one watt.
Will your 60 watt solar panal light up a 12 volts bulb without inventor?
If it is a 12 volt panel it will light a 12 volt bulb. Most likely it is not a 12 volt panel, it is some other voltage, so you then need equipment like an inverter to convert the energy to 12-volt energy.
Voltage frequency inverter dc or ac output?
An inverter changes a d.c. input to an a.c. output. Inverter is a device to change low volt DC to high volt AC 12 Dc to 220 Ac volt So many type of inverter of watts 500 watt 1000 watt 5000 watt
How much does 1 volt of electricity cost?
Electricity is not sold by the volt. It is sold by the watt, a unit of power. One watt equals one volt-ampere.
Can an 18 watt bulb be used in low voltage outdoor lighting?
If it is an 18 watt 12 volt bulb, then yes. But an 18 watt 120 volt bulb - then no.
Where did the watt came from?
A watt is the product of amperage times voltage.
What is ampire?
Ampire. watt/volt
How many watt of 220 volt will get by convering inverter from 200 Watt 12 volt?
Probably about 180 watts, assuming 90% efficiency.
Is 120 volts kind of the same as 1850 watts?
No, Volt and Watt is two diffrent things. 1 Volt * 1 Ampare = 1 Watt
What is the amount of power consumed by a 60 watt 220 volt lamp when it is connected across 110 volt supply?
What is the amount of power consumed by a 60 watt 220 volt lamp when it is connected across 110 volt supply?
What is the relationship between a volt an amp and a watt?
Voltage times amps equals watts. A watt is sometimes called a volt-amp because one volt times one amp equals one watt.
Can you use a 120 volt - 500 watt bulb in a 220 volt lamp?
no , it will burn out
Can you use a 130 volt 60 watt bulb in a socket that was made for a 110 volt 60 watt bulb?
yes the bulb will actually last longer
Will your 60 watt solar panal light up a 12 volts bulb without inventor?
If it is a 12 volt panel it will light a 12 volt bulb. Most likely it is not a 12 volt panel, it is some other voltage, so you then need equipment like an inverter to convert the energy to 12-volt energy.
