1 case: 14w * 1h -> 0.014kWh * 40p of total cost. There is nothing complex.
2 case: It's an issue with mAh markings. Battery rated in Wh has same simple math.
There are no consumer issues jot solves. More over additional ~10^3 magnitude is consumer hostile.

I propose a unit shift to align physics with human scheduling: The Jot (Jt ), defined as 1 Joule/hour.
It shifts the awkward math (1 hr=3600 s) out of the usage calculation and onto the device rating.
This post argues for killing the Watt-hour, measuring energy in Petajoules, and measuring power in Jots.
