About Energy conversion
Energy shows up on food labels, electricity bills and heater specs, each with its own unit. Fiction Units converts between joules and kilojoules (scientific), calories and kilocalories (food), watt-hours and kilowatt-hours (electricity) and BTUs (heating).
Food calories are kilocalories, the 200 kcal on a snack label is 200,000 small calories, and 1 kWh is 3.6 megajoules, the same energy as running a 1,000-watt heater for an hour.
Units supported: Joules, kilojoules, calories, kilocalories, watt-hours, kilowatt-hours, BTUs.
