Frequently asked questions

Symbols and assumptions

L: Input unit — litre
US pt: Output unit — US pint
m³: Base unit used internally for volume and capacity

• Both units measure volume and capacity, so the physical quantity is unchanged by the conversion.
• The relationship is exactly linear: 1 L = 2.113376419 US pt.
• Values are converted through the SI base unit for this quantity rather than pair by pair.
