If we just used watts life would be so much easier.
The beauty of SI units is you just add or remove zeroes.
Unless you're converting seconds to minutes, hours, days, years, etc.
Then you get things like watt hours. Or light years.
Which is why neither are SI-units
The Hives were right, we need to convert to the metric system for time.
Fun trivia. It's called a second because it's the second division of an hour after minutes. You can keep going with thirds and fourths for sub second time.
