Support Msec to hours

[poudenes]

Hi All,
Love this add-on so much!!! use it for many things!!

I have some sensors that show the uptime in msec. How can I change this to convert them to hours?
Or is there a way to make it possible to support this to convert it to hours?

Cheers,
Peter

I'm guessing format: duration will not work, as your sensors are in milli(?)seconds? If so you could make a template sensor that divides your sensor value by 1000, and then use the duration formatting option. Not sure I want to add custom conversions for all types of numbers, but I'll see what can be done.

I would also appreciate this feature - in a more general form:
Add a configuration property "convert" to scale the value before displaying it.
This allows for the above conversion as well as converting from Wh to kWh (without using template senors).

Added formatting option duration-m in version 4.4.0 for converting milliseconds to a HA duration.

(also added kilo to convert Wh to kWh, i.e. divide number by 1000)
