What is the relationship between joule/second and millijoule/second?

One joule per second equals 1000 millijoule per second, making mJ/s a smaller subunit for power measurement.

When should I use millijoule per second instead of joule per second?

Millijoule per second is used to measure very low power levels, such as in sensors, microcontrollers, or low-power LEDs.

Is this conversion tool suitable for all power measurement scales?

Yes, but it is especially useful when converting to smaller power units for fine measurement scales.

What Is This Tool?

This unit converter allows you to convert power values from joule per second (J/s) to millijoule per second (mJ/s). The joule per second is the SI derived unit of power equal to one watt, while the millijoule per second represents smaller power values useful for low-power systems.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the power value in joule per second (J/s) into the input field.
Select joule/second [J/s] as the source unit and millijoule/second [mJ/s] as the target unit.
Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in millijoule/second (mJ/s).
Review the result and use it for your measurement or analysis.
Repeat the process for different values as needed.

Key Features
