Time Conversion Tips

⏰ Quick Mental Math

Remember key conversions: 1 hour = 3,600 seconds, 1 day = 86,400 seconds, 1 year ≈ 31.5 million seconds. These help with quick estimates.

📅 Calendar Variations

Months vary from 28-31 days, and leap years add an extra day. For precise calculations, consider using exact dates rather than average values.

🔬 Scientific Precision

In scientific contexts, use precise definitions: 1 second is defined by atomic transitions, and time zones/daylight saving don't affect calculations.

🌍 Time Zones

This converter works with duration, not specific times. For time zone conversions, you'll need a different tool that handles dates and locations.
