16808edo's step size is sometimes called a '''jinn''', a term proposed by [[Gene Ward Smith]]<ref>[https://www.huygens-fokker.org/docs/measures.html Stichting Huygens-Fokker: Logarithmic Interval Measures]</ref>, when used as an [[interval size unit]].

Among the enormous list of 31-limit commas it tempers out, the simplest are 43681/43680, 49011/49010, 52326/52325 and 53361/53360. In the 13-limit it tempers out 123201/123200 and 1990656/1990625; in the 17-limit 194481/194480 and 336141/336140; in the 19-limit 43681/43680, 89376/89375 and 104976/104975. Since 43681/43680 is both the simplest comma it tempers out and the limit is as low (in this context) as 19, it may be regarded as rather characteristic of 16808.

It is also notable for being the smallest EDO after [[311edo|311]] that is [[purely consistent]] in the 31-odd-limit (approximates all odd harmonics from 1 to 31 with less than 25% relative error).
