Watts to Nanowatts Converter
1 watt (W) equals 1,000,000,000 nanowatts (nW).
Quick answer
- 1 watt = 1,000,000,000 nanowatts
- 1 nanowatt = 1 × 10-9 watts
- Formula: nW = W × 1,000,000,000
1 watt = 1,000,000,000 nanowatts
How to convert watts to nanowatts
nW = W × 1,000,000,000
To convert watts to nanowatts, multiply the number of watts by 1,000,000,000.
Example: 1 W to nW
- Start with the value in watts: 1 W.
- Multiply by 1,000,000,000: 1 × 1,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000.
- Result: 1 watt = 1,000,000,000 nanowatts.
Going the other way, 1 nanowatt = 1 × 10-9 watts, so to convert nanowatts back to watts you divide by the same number. See nanowatts to watts.
