kWh works too. Phone batteries usually have capacity in mAh while cars usually have kWh ratings. Easy enough to convert back and forth.
A lot of the heat in a laptop comes from the CPU and the GPU. Those are usually activally cooled (on laptops at least) and that's with a thermal limit of nearly 100⁰C (212⁰F).

Ah need to be multiplied by the voltage to get Wh. So yes, that's pretty easy.
