Re: 2.5 kWh? Over what period?
This could be an annoying confusion / mistype of units as: KWh = Kilo Watt Hour which seems to imply an hour???? BUT a Watt is a rate unit with a rate of joules per second ie. 1j/s multiply by an hours worth of seconds and Kilo to give 3,600,000joules x 2.5 = 9million joules of energy saved over this test period which might be 1 hour or could be the expected lifetime of the unit in the style of typical inflationary marketing speak. Who knows???
All thanks to my old engineering tutors who said: "look at the units":)
