Watts and volts are units of measurement that are used to describe different aspects of electrical power. Watts are a measure of the rate at which electricity is used, or the rate at which electrical energy is converted into another form of energy, such as light or heat. Volts, on the other hand, are a measure of the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit. In other words, volts is a measure of the force that drives the flow of electric current in a circuit.
