Enough with the watt-hours already! Let's all just measure batteries using Joules, we have a unit specifically for quantities of electrical energy.

A watt-hour is 3600 Joules, which is not a nice round number, but it's fairly easy to remember. At least they're both proper units of energy.
My thinkpad battery holds 5e23 eV of energy.
