"mw/hr" should be "mw" True, but it should actually be "MW" since the prefix "m" means "milli-" which is 1/1000 whereas "M" means "Mega-" which means one million. Watts should be abbreviated "W" rather than "w". "mW" is a valid term, but it means "milliwatt" which is 1/1000 of a watt.

So do you believe it would be more impressive to generate 4 times the total current or a current density four times greater than a previous record?
