Why convert millihenry to stathenry?

Converting millihenry to stathenry helps compare inductance values between the SI system commonly used in electronics and the cgs system used in theoretical physics and older scientific literature.

In what fields is stathenry mostly used?

Stathenry is mainly used in theoretical electrodynamics, plasma physics, astrophysics, and in academic settings to explain electromagnetic phenomena using the cgs (Gaussian/ESU) unit system.

Can stathenry be used for practical electronics measurements?

Generally no; stathenry is mostly confined to theoretical or historical work, as the tiny conversion factor makes it impractical for modern electronics measurements.
