Considering all of the errors and mistakes government makes, the post about A Flock of Seagulls seems to be a perfect case of the pot calling the kettle black. (Not to mention that there is no such animal as a seagull).
An electric heater rated at 1000 watts (1 kilowatt), operating for one hour uses one kilowatt-hour (equivalent to 3.6 megajoules) of energy. A television rated at 100 watts operating for 10 hours continuously uses one kilowatt-hour. A 40-watt light bulb operating continuously for 25 hours uses one kilowatt-hour.
First, kilowatt. A kilowatt is simply 1000 watts of power. Second, hour. We all know an hour is simply 60 minutes of time. Thus, by definition a kilowatt hour can best be visualized as the amount of electricity consumed by (10) ten 100-watt light bulbs burning for an hour, or 10 times 100 watts which equals 1000 watts.
