The converters '''[[Template:Convert/2]]''' and '''[[Template:Convert/flip2]]''' will [[conversion of units|convert]] 2 amounts at once, allowing any range words/text between the 2 amounts. However, both amounts are treated as the same unit type. The output unit must be specified, or put blank "| |" for the default output unit. Convert/flip2 will reverse, or flip, the output to show the results on the left-hand side and inputs on the right-hand side.

: '''Usage''':  {{convert/2 |5|by|6|m|ft}}
::: {{convert/2 |5|x|6|m|ft}}
::: {{convert/2 |5.5|up to|6|m|ft}}
::: {{convert/2 |15|rarely|20|km|mi|abbr=on}}
::: {{convert/flip2 |5|x|6|m|ft}}

The template supports most of the options which [[Template:Convert]] allows, including abbreviation abbr=in or abbr=out or abbr=off, wikilinks lk=on, lk=in or lk=out, and adjective mode adj=on. The separator can also be a semicolon: disp=semi, disp=or, disp=comma, disp=x & disp=b (default parentheses). Using optional parameter "warn=yes" will warn when the separator is an unusual word (other than: to, by, and, or, -, +/-, x, xx or comma).

; Examples
The following examples show use of some separator text, with p=2 to round the [[precision]] to 2 decimal places:
* {{convert/2 |5|by|6|m|ft}}{{in5|8}}→ {{Convert/2|5|by|6|m|ft}}
* {{convert/2 |5|x|6|m|ft|p=2}}{{in5}}→ {{Convert/2|5|x|6|m|ft|p=2}}
* {{convert/2 |7,550|rarely|7,600|km|mi}} → {{Convert/2|7,550|rarely|7,600|km|mi}}
* {{convert/2 |7|to|8|km|mi|abbr=on}}{{in5|4}}→ {{Convert/2|7|to|8|km|mi|abbr=on}}
* {{convert/2 |7|to|8|km|mi|adj=on}}{{in5|6}}→ {{Convert/2|7|to|8|km|mi|adj=on}}
* {{convert/2 |7|to|8|km|mi|adj=split}}{{in5|3}}→ {{Convert/2|7|to|8|km|mi|adj=split}}

* {{convert/2 |10|-|20|°C|F|disp=or}}{{in5|9}}→ {{Convert/2|10|-|20|°C|F|disp=or}}
* {{convert/2 |11|-|22|°C|F|disp=semi}}{{in5}}→ {{Convert/2|11|-|22|°C|F|disp=semi}}
* {{convert/2 |10|–|15|°F|C}}{{in5|10}}→ {{Convert/2|10|–|15|°F|C}}
* {{convert/2 |105|-|106|°F|C|lk=on }}{{ns|7}}→ {{Convert/2|105|-|106|°F|C|lk=on}}
* {{convert/2 |45|-|55|°F|C|disp=x| in winter (|)}} – {{Convert/2|45|-|55|°F|C |disp=x | in winter (|)}}

* {&#123;convert/2|700.4|-|700.5|lb|kg}}{{in5}}– {{Convert/2|700.4|-|700.5|lb|kg}}
* {&#123;convert | 700.4|-|700.5|lb|kg}}{{in5}}– {{Convert|700.4|-|700.5|lb|kg}}
<hr width=500px>

* {&#123;convert/2 |5+1/2|wide by|6+1/3|m|ft}} – {{Convert/2|5+1/2|wide by|6+1/3|m|ft}}
* {&#123;convert/flip2 |5+1/2|by|6+1/3|m|ft}} {{ns}}– {{Convert/flip2|5+1/2|by|6+1/3|m|ft}}

The standard range-words are: to, by, and, or, -, +/-, x, xx & comma. Display types: disp=comma, disp=semi, disp=or, disp=s, disp=2 (or disp=out), disp=# (or disp=number), disp=x and disp=b.
