About this conversion
Power conversions help compare car engines in hp and kW, and air-con units rated in BTU/h against their electrical draw in watts.
Many conversion factors are exact by definition. The inch has been defined as exactly 2.54 centimetres since 1959, and the pound as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms, so conversions involving them can be as precise as you need.
A conversion table is handy for common values, but a calculator is faster and avoids interpolation errors for anything in between.
