Jolly Ranchers

The Jolly Rancher Candy Company was originated in Golden, Colorado, by Bill and Dorothy Harmsen in 1949. They called the company Jolly Rancher to suggest a hospitable, western company. The company originally made ice cream, chocolate and hard candy. As hard candy sales grew, however, they began to concentrate on developing their "Famous for Flavor" line of hard candies. Bought by Hershey's in 1996 they now make three types of candy under this brand name.

They are different terms. Amps refer to the amount of energy, volts refers to electrical "potential".

Amps * Volts = Watts.

So if you don't already know a little about electricity, it just became more confusing. One volt of power into 1 ohm resistance equals 1 amp of flow Volts = electrical pressure, Amps = current flow, ohms = amount of resistance in the circuit. dividing voltage by resistance gives you the amount of current. Dividing voltage by current gives you resistance. Muntiplying current by resistance gives you voltage If you know any 2 values, you can calculate the third.
