About Converting Rontowatts to Nanowatts
Rontowatt and Nanowatt both belong to the electricity family — voltage, current, resistance, power, or energy — units that show up constantly when working across the different standards used by household wiring (120V/240V depending on region), automotive electrical systems (12V/24V), and electronics design. Specifically: Rontowatt is 1e-27 watt units, and nanowatt is 1e-9 watt units.
Formula
nanowatts = rontowatts × 1e-18
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 rontowatt equals 1e-27 base units, and 1 nanowatt equals 1e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct rontowatt-to-nanowatt factor of 1e-18.
Simple example
1 rW × 1e-18 = 1e-18 nW
1 rontowatt = 1e-18 nanowatts.
Real-world example
120 rW × 1e-18 = 1.2e-16 nW
120 rontowatts = 1.2e-16 nanowatts.

Reverse conversion: Nanowatt to Rontowatt
1e-18 nW × 1e+18 = 1 rW
1e-18 nanowatts = 1 rontowatts.
rontowatts = nanowatts × 1e+18

Frequently asked questions
How many nanowatts are in 1 rontowatt?
1 rontowatt equals 1e-18 nanowatts, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert rontowatt to nanowatt?
Multiply the rontowatt value by 1e-18. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert nanowatt back to rontowatt?
Use the reverse factor: 1 nanowatt equals 1e+18 rontowatts. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a rontowatt?
Rontowatt (rW) is a unit of electricity.
What is a nanowatt?
Nanowatt (nW) is a unit of electricity.
Is the rontowatt to nanowatt conversion exact?
Yes. Both rontowatt and nanowatt are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1e-18 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between voltage, current, and resistance?
Voltage (volts) is the electrical potential difference driving current through a circuit. Current (amperes) is the rate of flow of electric charge. Resistance (ohms) is how much a component opposes that flow. They're related by Ohm's law (V = I × R), but they are distinct physical quantities, and this page converts between units of just one of them.
