Uses [[Types/string]] to specify the amount of electric energy in joules or electric energy per time in watts.
 
Internally, the input in Watt or <code>Joule/second</code> is always converted into Joule/tick or <code>Joule/(1/60)second</code>, using the following formula: <code>Power in Joule/tick = Power in Watt&nbsp;/&nbsp;60</code> ([[Units#Power]]).
