The efficiency of truth: introducing the jot(clayshentrup.medium.com) |
I propose a unit shift to align physics with human scheduling: The Jot (Jt ), defined as 1 Joule/hour.
It shifts the awkward math (1 hr=3600 s) out of the usage calculation and onto the device rating.
Conversion: 1 Watt = 3.6 kiloJots (kJt ).
Usage Math: A 50 kJt bulb running for 10 hours uses exactly 500 kJ. No conversion factors.
Battery Math: Capacity (Joules) / Rate (Jots) = Time (Hours). Pure integer division.
This post argues for killing the Watt-hour, measuring energy in Petajoules, and measuring power in Jots.2 case: It's an issue with mAh markings. Battery rated in Wh has same simple math.
There are no consumer issues jot solves. More over additional ~10^3 magnitude is consumer hostile.
