Verdict
The clearest difference is price: LOC8 at Free against Electrical Calculator's $3.99. LOC8 also leads on iOS requirement (13.2 vs 17.6). Electrical Calculator's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 9 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
