A 60W bulb will use 60W X 1 hour / 1000. this will give you the KWh - the units your electricity company uses to charge you.
So 60 X 1 =
60
60/1000 =
0.060 Kwh

You have to pay for the work (enegy) of 150 watt hours. Scroll down to related links and look at "watt-hour - Wikipedia".
The Watt hour efficiency is the ratio of the amount of energy available during the discharge of an accumulator to the amount of energy put in during charge.
The energy unit is not watts per hour, but watts times hour, simply called watt-hours.One BTU is equal to about 1055 Joules or Watt-seconds; that is about 0.293 watt-hours. Actually there are different definitions of the BTU.The energy unit is not watts per hour, but watts times hour, simply called watt-hours.One BTU is equal to about 1055 Joules or Watt-seconds; that is about 0.293 watt-hours.

1kilowatt = 1000 watts but you cannot compare a kilowatt hour to a watt, the extra dimension of time changes what is being measured. The watt is a measure of power. The watt second and the kilowatt hour is energy. The misunderstanding comes from our use of the term POWER COMPANY for our electricity suppliers. They bill us in kilowatt hours which is energy, not power.
The Joule is a unit of energy, while the Watt is a unit of power. Joule is the alternate name for a Newton-meter of energy, and Watt is the alternate name for a Newton-meter per second of power. This means that one Watt is one Joule per second; a 100-Watt light bulb converts 100 Joules of electrical energy every second into heat energy and light energy.
