Hi Gordon,   You're right.  Let's not talk about PF and the inductive VA that the electric companies charge for.  Since we're talking DC, that's not a problem.  As to Hertz and CPS, they are identical.   When alternating current and radio came into being, the accepted term for the frequency of the wave was cycles per second, kilocycles, megacycles etc. and indeed described the number of complete cycles per second.  Then someone decided to 'honor' Mr. Heinrich Hertz who first described the sinusoidal wave.  So now instead of cps, kc or mc,  we have Hz kHz or mHz.  Note the capitalization of the 'proper name'.
