Second Blog Entry, Seeking Feedback

I'm in a highly technical field and often need to give presentations to fellow engineers. I then will need to give the same presentation to managers. I need to give consideration to the audience I'm presenting to and adjust my presentation. My fellow engineers will get a very technical presentation and managers will get a layman’s version with technical information omitted because managers will not understand it. You need to take into consideration your audience you’re presenting to.

Yes. The chemistry one is aimed at people that are considering their first DIY and maybe people that have made mixes but want some of the terms we use explained. The math one is more for people that can use the calculators but want to know some of the math behind them, or maybe want to set up their own spreadsheets.

I used Excel a lot, before I started using that calculator I linked to in my first post, and I still use it if I just want a quick 'n dirty avg for mg/ml and PG -- here's one I used just a few days ago --

Thanks everyone for your time and feedback. I have tweaked to math one quite a bit based on responses. I added more narrative to hopefully make it less of a headache-inducing pile of letters and numbers, and provided some more real-world explanations of what is going on. Although that one is still more technical than the other, I would like it to be comprehensible to people without a lot of background in scientific and mathematical notation, assuming they have the motivation to sort through it. So again, thanks, and just in case there are any gluttons for punishment left, I seriously welcome any additional feedback.

I guess math geeks can follow it. I really can't. That image in my last post, of the Excel calculations, was the only way I can arrive at proper figures when mixing liquids of different strength and PG/VG proportions. Now, I do use that linked calculator because if the liquids I want to mix don't give me sufficient nicotine or PG, the calculator can add those quantities for me, based on my target settings, to add some of my 100mg nicotine or my PG to arrive at my usual 10mg, 80%-90% PG.
