My legs say otherwise when I try to stream full screen with my laptop on my lap. My phone gets physically hot to the touch when charging. Both are well outside of the optimal temperature range for Li-Ion batteries (60 to 95F)

The 2.94Ah iPhone cell has a nominal voltage of around 3.6V. So that's almost 10.6Wh.
The Model 3 Long Range battery is around 79,000Wh, or 7,464 times bigger.

kWh works too. Phone batteries usually have capacity in mAh while cars usually have kWh ratings. Easy enough to convert back and forth.
