154 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 154edo or 154ed2), also called 154-tone equal temperament (154tet) or 154 equal temperament (154et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 154 equal parts of about 7.79 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/154, or the 154th root of 2.

154edo is a contorted 77et in the 7-limit; in the 11-limit, it tempers out 126/125, 1029/1024 and 243/242, which define the 11-limit 31 & 123 temperament, for which 154 provides a good tuning, though 185edo gives the optimal patent val. In the 13-limit, it tempers out 196/195, 364/363 and 676/675.
