    The editors/authors and standard setters clearly have no idea.

    "We've got a 3 ✖️ 1000 ➗ 1000 AmpHour battery!"

    Yeah, I know Dave in marketing says big numbers look more impressive, but just say it's just a 3Ah battery.

    Power bank specs are worse to a factor of ten, often quoting 20,000 mAh capacity! I'm surprised they aren't trying to do 20kmAh which would be a crime against units.

    I always quite liked
