35 Watts to Joules
Watts measure power and joules measure energy, so the answer depends on time. Here is what a 35 W device uses over each period.
35 J per second
Because 1 watt = 1 joule per second, 35 W delivers 35 J every second it runs.
- Per minute
- 2,100 J
- Per hour
- 126,000 J
- Per hour (kWh)
- 0.035 kWh
- Per day
- 3,024,000 J
35 watts to joules, explained
A watt is a rate: one watt means one joule of energy is used every second. So 35 watts means 35 joules per second. To get a total number of joules you multiply by how long the power runs.
For example, a 35 W device left on for one hour uses 35 × 3,600 = 126,000 J. Over a full day it uses 3,024,000 J. On an electricity bill, one hour of use is 0.035 kWh.
Understanding the difference between power (watts) and energy (joules) is crucial for sizing batteries, calculating thermal output, and estimating utility costs. Power is the instantaneous draw of the device, while energy is the total capacity consumed over the entire duration it remains active.

FAQ: 35 watts
How many joules is 35 watts?
35 watts is not a fixed number of joules on its own — watts measure power and joules measure energy, so you need a time. A 35 W device uses 35 J every second, 126,000 J over one hour (0.035 kWh).
How do you convert 35 watts to joules?
Multiply 35 by the number of seconds the power runs. Joules = 35 × time in seconds. For one hour that is 35 × 3,600 = 126,000 J.
How much energy does a 35 W device use per hour?
A 35 W device running for one hour uses 126,000 J, which is 0.035 kWh on an electricity bill.
