What does 1 hectojoule per second represent in watts?

One hectojoule per second equals 100 watts, representing the rate of energy transfer per second.

Why convert from hectojoule per second to deciwatt?

Converting to deciwatt allows expressing power in smaller, more precise units ideal for low power electronic components and scientific measurements.

Can I use deciwatts for high power ratings?

Deciwatt units are most appropriate for low power levels; using them for high power values results in very large numbers which are less practical.
