How to use this Milliwatts to Megawatts Converter 🤔
Follow these steps to convert given power from the units of Milliwatts to the units of Megawatts.
Enter the input Milliwatts value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Milliwatts into Megawatts in realtime ⌚ using the conversion formula, and displays under the Megawatts label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Megawatts value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Megawatts value using the Copy button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
Formula
The formula to convert given power from Milliwatts to Megawatts is:
Power(Megawatts) = Power(Milliwatts) / 1e9
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider that a mobile phone consumes 500 milliwatts (mW) of power while in standby mode. Convert this power consumption from milliwatts to Megawatts.
Answer
Given:
Power in Milliwatts = 500 mW
Converting Power from Milliwatts to Megawatts...
The formula to convert from Milliwatts to Megawatts is:
Power(Megawatts) = Power(Milliwatts) / 1e9
Substitute given Power(Milliwatts) = 500 in the above formula.
Power(Megawatts) = 500 / 1e9
Power(Megawatts) = 5e-7
Therefore, 500 mW is equal to 5e-7 MW.
2
Consider that a smartwatch operates on 200 milliwatts (mW) of power. Convert this power usage from milliwatts to Megawatts.
Answer
Given:
Power in Milliwatts = 200 mW
Converting Power from Milliwatts to Megawatts...
The formula to convert from Milliwatts to Megawatts is:
Power(Megawatts) = Power(Milliwatts) / 1e9
Substitute given Power(Milliwatts) = 200 in the above formula.
Power(Megawatts) = 200 / 1e9
Power(Megawatts) = 2e-7
Therefore, 200 mW is equal to 2e-7 MW.

Milliwatts
A milliwatt (mW) is a unit of power equal to one thousandth of a watt. It is often used in contexts where power levels are low, such as in electronics and communications.
Megawatts
A megawatt (MW) is equal to one million watts. This unit is often used to measure the output of power plants or the power consumption of large-scale facilities. It is a standard unit in the field of energy generation and consumption.
