Default Converting LME lbs to litres

My LHBS sells liquid malt extract in litres not lbs, and the recipies I have been looking at all have LME listed in lbs. I even tried to see if Beersmith would convert this for me, but nothing so far.

Does anyone know the conversion rate?

1.43 Kg/L. 1 Kg = 2.2 lbs.

1.5kg/3.3 lb tins of extract is about 1liter in volume. It's not the first time I've heard it being sold by volume but it's really a poor way of doing it.

If you have an android device, I'm sure iwhatever has one as well, you can dl vconvert and get your conversions for anything. I use it religiously when I make wine.
