Power = volts x amps, so your example will be 12 x 0.5 = 6 watts. (500mA = 0.5 amp)
Note we don't talk of 'watts per hour', it is just watts. 1 watt = 1 joule per second
A watt hour is a unit of energy, not time -so you cannot ask how 'long' it is. The time taken to consume a watt hour of energy depends upon the rate (i.e. the power) at which it is consumed, expressed in watts. A watt hour is defined as the amount of energy consumed, over a period of one hour, at the rate of one watt.
A 12W downlight uses 12 watts of power per hour when it's running. To convert this to kilowatt-hours (kWh), which is how electricity is typically billed, you divide by 1,000, resulting in 0.012 kWh per hour. Therefore, if you run the downlight for one hour, it will consume 0.012 kWh of electricity.
Kilowatt hour
I assume you are asking how much energy a 5-hp motor will consume in one hour?The first thing to understand that a motor is rated according its output power which, in North America, is expressed in horsepower and, elsewhere, in watts. So, the output power of your motor is 5 hp, which is equivalent to 5 x 746 = 3730 W.Next, you need to find out its full-load efficiency. You then need to divide the output power by the efficiency to determine its input power -remember, input power is always higher than the output power.Once you have found out its input power, convert that into kilowatts and multiply it by one (hour) to determine the energy used in kilowatt hours.
The electricity usage of a drill depends on its power rating, typically measured in watts. Most standard electric drills consume between 500 to 1,500 watts, depending on their size and capabilities. To estimate usage, you can multiply the wattage by the hours of operation; for example, a 1,000-watt drill running for one hour uses 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity. Always check the specific drill's specifications for accurate power consumption.
If a device is rated at 1000 watts and is used for 1 hour, it will consume 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) of energy. To calculate the energy consumed for a different duration of use, you can use the formula Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) x Time (hours).
5.5 watts is 0.0055 kilowatts. in one hour the equipment uses 0.0055 kilowatt-hours.
In ideal conditions, about 6W Amps x volts = watts 500ma = 1/2 amp (1000ma to 1a) 0.5 X 12V = 6W
The batter uses 5 Volts for charging and it takes 1 hour to fully charge your iphone which is 7 Watts.
A typical iron uses 1000 watts all the time the heating element is working. It is controlled by a thermostat so the element might be on for a quarter of the time. In an hour the iron might consume 250 watt-hours or 0.25 of a unit.
an 1100 watt microwave wil generaly consume aproximatly 3.0 wats when not in use and close to 1100 watts while in use, the internal light while the door is opn will consume about 32.4 watts. There are 1000 whats in a Kilowatt hour.
When 1000 watts of power is consumed over a period of 1 hour, the consumption is 1 kw/h.
Watts are units for measuring the rate of energy consumption. So it is meaningless to speak of how many watts something consumes in a length of time. (It would be like asking how many miles per hour a car drives in an hour.)Energy consumption may be measured in kilowatt-hours. A typical microwave consumes 1500 watts, which would be 1.5 kilowatt-hours in one hour.
Your question is rather like asking "How many miles per hour do you do in a week?" You don't consume watts over time, it's a measure of how many joules of energy you consume over time.
One kilowatt hour (kWH) is the amount of power used at the rate of 1000 watts for one hour. Therefore a device of 120 watts running for one hour would consume 120 / 1000 x 1 = 0.12 kWH
1 kilowatt (kW) is equal to 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) when used continuously for one hour. So, if you use a 1 kW appliance for one hour, it will consume 1 kWh of electricity.
The Signature Classics 8 cup model sold by Walgreens uses 500 watts.
