166W an hour? You can power a laptop and a light for that. What on earth were they smoking to say this is worthwhile..

    Unit pedant here: Just 166W. Watts are joules per second (they already have time in them, adding another unit of time confuses things).

    This might seem silly, but it will help avoid confusion when you encounter Wh (watts * hours).
