Buy the way, according to Bob Gale, it's really GIGAWATTS. When making the movie, they wanted a big number and looked up the prefixes for large numbers and liked "GIGA-". The problem was, nobody knew how to pronounce it correctly, so he just went with the actors pronouncing it as "Jigga" in the movie, not knowing it's actually pronounced with a hard "G".
Yep, knew that
Seeing as you guys have been talking about 1.21 Gigawatts. I figured I'd post this here. To use 1.21 Gigawatt hours you'd need to use 1,210,000 kWh. Based on the 34 kWh per 100 miles on the window sticker you'd need to drive a Model S approximately 3,558,823 miles.

Brilliant!
