The 10kW consumes 1.25 gallons per hour at half load and 1.93 gallons per hour at full load.

The generator uses approximately one gallon of propane per hour. I'm not sure how much is used for the Weekly self-check.

As with any question, depends on the size of flame. We typically have it over 1/2 to 3/4 high level and were very surprised at run time. Nice size flame. I don't have actual hours per tank, but I would estimate maybe 15-20 hours of run time depending on setting. Wide open, maybe 8 hours. Side note. We used the supplied cover that came with unit. Bad idea on a deck in full sun/Chicago. Damaged finish on top wood grain metal surface. Contacted company, no response. Sanded and painted over myself and purchased an nicer cover on line. No issues now. Otherwise, very happy. Many compliments.

Not sure have only used once, for about 5 hours and did not seem to use much propane. Estimating about 40 hours.

I believe that it is 3 amps per hour at 12 volts.I run it off a honda 2000 generator with a 5 gal propane tank and a 100 gal water reservoir, as there are anywhere from 5 to 12 showers taken a day with it,we are way back in the Sierra mountains prospecting and the wife's and kids take one every day we have been running it for over 2 months now and have had no problems with it, we all love it. if you want a review on it go to you tube the Reed Lukens channel we just posted it

There are 90,000 BTU's in a gallon of propane gas so it will burn for 9 hours on a gallon on high setting. I returned these heaters as they did not have a thermostat control, just a heat control, low medium high. Be sure you get a heater with a thermostat not a heat setting.

if you were to cook on high every-time you cooked you would get six uses. One full propane tank would typically last me a 3 night, 2 day camping trip. I would usually use it to boil water for coffee, fry eggs, and cook bacon in the morning, and heat the baked beans until they are nice and hot for dinner.

I use natural gas which connects to our home gas line. A small propane tank would work on a unit made up for propane use.

Gallons are never referred to when discussing propane. I have never seen or heard of a 5 gal. tank for propane.

I do not know the exact amount. If filled full the heater holds 1.9 gallons which for me lasts about 3 days if I am using it in 6 to 8 hour intervals.

fuel capacity is about 1 gallon. You can expect to get about 7-9 hours runtime from it, depending on the load on the generator. If you need longer run times there are extended run kits available for it. The kits include a special gas cap to replace the one on the generator, that connects to an external tank by a hose.

The gas tank holds 1.1 gallon of gas. Ours ran for almost 11 hours on one tank.

I wish I could help you but I don't know. All I can tell L you is you have to replumb the filter system and it uses a lot of propane.

Advertised at 1450 gallons per hour. I emptied an 1100 gallon pool in about one hour.

This grill definitely used a lot of propane! I cooked Breakfast and Dinner on this using both burners and used 1 to 1 1/2 cans of propane each day. It puts out some heat though and can bring a large pot of water to boil within 5-10 minutes. You don't need the burners on high with this grill. Medium/low worked just great. Love this grill a lot but wish it had indicators to help control the low/medium/high settings.

I haven't run my generator more than a few minutes as it has only recently been received. I do remember seeing 4 1/2 hours at approx. 1/2 load with a 20 lb tank. I've stocked up with a few extra tanks and figure I'm all set as I'd probably run it for a few hours at a time to keep heat, hot water, and refrigerators available as needed. The fact that propane doesn't go bad was an influence in the decision to buy a LP powered generator.

I have several of these heaters installed at 5400 feet and they all work fine. As far as bottle size goes, propane has 91,000 btu/gallon and this heater is rated at 10,000 btu/hr, so it will operate on high for approximately 9 hours per gallon, or 45 hours on a 5 gallon bottle. Choose your bottle size according to your usage needs.
