A quick way of converting fuel economy data is as follows
(For UK gallons)

L/100 Km = 282.5 divided by mpg

mpg = 282.5 divided by L/100 Km


To convert miles into kilometers - multiply miles by 1.61

To convert kilometers into miles - multiply Kilometers by 0.62

To convert litres to UK gallons - muliply litres by 0.22

To convert gallons to litres - multiply gallons by 4.55


Alternatively open this website and use the conversion there :-

Years ago, working with surveyors, we had official conversion booklets with many figures for distance, volume etc. Two I committed to memory were,

Kms to Miles (statute) / 1.609344

Litres to Imp Galls / 4.546086865

They're firmly embedded in my memory & used to this day.

"Where do I get one?".. says Dazz (searching Ebay)

I knew those things existed  (I just thought I had almost every gadget already)

Yeah I think a museum in Prague might have that model for sale ..  Not many on Ebay might look out for one locally (you know me I wont pay much)

It's actually not that bad, it's credit card size when folded, and being solar powered I haven't had to replace batteries.

I was only joshing I would have forked out a lot of money (up to say $10) for one just like it... If I could find one 

[rustynutz]

That much?
