I just have completed an exercise to see how far a 7kg bottle of gas would go in current Temps. here of +2 --2 degrees C.

Just bringing my Sprite Alpine 2 back to life after winter storage, I put in a new bottler of gas and fired up the heating on gas only, set my CP classic controll to "2" (approx 18 degrees) and let it run.

From full to empty it lasted 2 1/2 haf days round the clock (60 hours).

How does this sound in your experiance ? and if it is normal then the information may be usefull to other's.

    No idea on if it is normal, as we always use EHU. However it does show  what good value the CAMC sites are in the winter, as even with the cheaper options ( not calor ) that usage would mount up.

    Sounds about right.  Which is why off ehu people tend not to use calorlites well not twice.
