Technical Questions
We use conversion factors from authoritative sources like NIST (National Institute of
Standards and Technology) and ISO standards. All formulas are regularly verified for
accuracy and updated when standards change.
Results are displayed with up to 10 decimal places to maintain precision, though for
most practical purposes, 2-4 decimal places are sufficient. Very small or large numbers
may be shown in scientific notation.
Currently, our converters handle one value at a time. For multiple conversions, you can
bookmark specific converter pages and quickly switch between them, or use our conversion
tables for common reference values.
Once a converter page is loaded, it will continue to work even if your internet
connection is lost. All calculations happen locally in your browser, so no internet is
needed for the actual conversions.
No. We do not store or track any values you enter into our converters. All conversions
happen locally in your browser, and no conversion data is transmitted to our servers.
Your privacy is important to us.
