        <li><label for="diameter">Wheel Diameter</label> <input type="text" name="diameter" value="6"> <span>inches</span></li>

        <li><label for="circ">Wheel Circumference</label> <input type="text" name="circ" disabled="disabled"> <span>inches</span></li>

        <li><label for="speedIPM">Speed</label> <input type="text" name="speedIPM" disabled="disabled"> <span>inches per minute</span></li>

        <li><label for="speedFPM">Speed</label> <input type="text" name="speedFPM" disabled="disabled"> <span>feet per minute</span></li>

        <li><label for="speedMPH">Speed</label> <input type="text" name="speedMPH" disabled="disabled"> <span>miles per hour</span></li>

        <li><label for="speedMPM">Speed</label> <input type="text" name="speedMPM" disabled="disabled"> <span>meters per minute</span></li>

        <li><label for="speedKPH">Speed</label> <input type="text" name="speedKPH" disabled="disabled"> <span>km per hour</span></li>

        <li>* This is the reduction from the output of the gear motor to the wheel. If direct drive, reduction = 1. If your reduction is 1:2 put in 0.5.</li>
