Sid,
I arranged the first equation wrong, it should have been

720 = ASF x minutes / thickness in mils

The second equation to solve for anodizing time is correct.

Look at it this way; since coating thickness is proportional to current density (ASF) and time. This means that if you half the time you half the coating thickness.

Good catch, thanks.
