This is, at the very least, confusing. It doesn't explain the discrepancy
to the old code nor the change in constant values. I have no idea if this
change would result in erroneous readings on some other system where
the existing calculation may be the correct one.

On top of that, it seems overflow-prune in 32 bit systems.
