@grochocki any update on this pitch?
This seems like a relatively simple request. I'm confused why it's taken over a year to get a response or add this feature.
Hey, I implemented this feature but i don't know if i have to translate its display name into languages other than english.
Problem Statement
There is no easy way to convert energy values to kilowatt-hours.
Evidence or User Insights
The kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a common unit of energy, used for electricity bills and battery capacity. Outside of scientific and engineering circles, it is more popular than the joule (J). Another representation similar to kWh is the watt-second (W-s).
Proposal
An additional option to the energy conversion units for kilowatt-hour and watt-second would make conversions easier to other forms of energy.
Goals
Non-Goals
Add all possible combinations of metric prefixes and units of time (e.g., megawatt-minute, decajoules, etc.)
Low-Fidelity Concept
1 W-s is equivalent to 1 J. 1 kWh is equivalent to 3600 kJ or 3,600,000 J or 3,600,000 W-s.
Requested Assignment
If adding conversion units is relatively simple, I can implement this.
