About These Units
Milliwatt (mW)
A milliwatt (mW) equals 0.001 watts or one-thousandth of a watt. Milliwatts measure laser pointer power (1-5 mW), wireless signal strength (WiFi: 30-100 mW), LED indicator lights, and low-power electronics. Bluetooth devices typically transmit at 1-100 mW.
BTU per Second (BTU/s)
BTU per second (BTU/s) equals 1,055 watts or 3,600 BTU per hour. BTU/s measures high-power thermal processes, industrial burners, and rapid heating applications. Rarely used compared to BTU/h; primarily appears in engineering calculations.
