but that is what marketing is all about...
if you can take a number.. like watts and then multiply by 3600 to give watt/hours then they have a bigger number to make their claims with...

unless they make a statment that you can actualy prove that is wrong...
then they can be sued... and if they can't be sued.. then they will make that statment..
hell... a marketer will tell you that the sky would be more blue if you bought their product if they could get away with it.
