Formula, while using 2 charges, takes
Pw - primary element weakness: 0.5 (resistant), 1.0 (neutral), 1.5 (weak)
Pd - primary element damage (137 holy, 130 fire, 120 ice, iirc)
Sw - secondary element weakness (always lightning)
Sd - secondary element damage (125 for max lightning)
Using the numbers as above, the total percent multiplier is
Pw * Pd + 0.1 * Sw * Sd
That 0.1 is the reason Lightning-weak stuff should be approached with Lightning alone. If you dual charge, your elemental damage comes out to 130*1.0 + 0.1*125*1.5 = 148.75% (as on the chart). If you single charge, you get 125*1.5 = 187.5%.
