Each meter.me user can choose what units they view their components in according to their preference. Each user can set up default account-level unit preferences and also component-level unit preferences. The account default preferences will be used if no unique component-level preferences are specified.
How to adjust your account-level unit defaults (for time, volume, height, pressure & temperature)
