Description
I would like to propose adding a set of fuel-related calculators/tools to LubeLogger to enhance its analytical capabilities.
The inspiration comes from the mobile app Fuelio, which provides simple but highly practical calculators based on existing vehicle and fuel log data.
Proposed calculators
-
Trip Cost Calculator
Inputs:
- Distance
- Fuel price per liter
- Fuel consumption (e.g., L/100km)
Behavior:
- Automatically pre-fill fuel price and consumption using existing logs (if available)
- Calculate total trip cost
-
Distance Calculator
Inputs:
Output:
- Estimated travel distance
-
Fuel Consumption Calculator
Inputs:
Output:
- Consumption (e.g., L/100km or MPG depending on user settings)
-
Required Fuel Calculator
Inputs:
Output:
Key idea
These tools should ideally integrate with existing data:
- Use historical averages (fuel consumption, fuel price)
- Allow manual overrides for flexibility
- Respect unit preferences (metric/imperial)
Why this is useful
- Reduces the need for external tools or apps
- Makes LubeLogger more actionable, not just a tracking tool
- Leverages already stored data to provide immediate value
- Supports planning (e.g., estimating trip costs or fuel needs)
