what is the fuel that measured? Is it the amount of energy you used?

It is a Nike thing. Nike has come up with a standard to measure activity. I believe it probably takes into account the "Hours Won", the "Steps" taken, and "Calories" burned. It seems as the hours won increase or steps greatly increase, fuel is increased as well.It really doesn't take a lot of effort to ear more "Fuel". We like it because if you are next to your goal by say, 200 points, it causes you to have an attainable goal reached and met by simply not accepting that and getting up and exercising for maybe 5 minutes, or walking to the end of the block, etc. vs. laying down for the night and accepting a lost goal.

It's the equivalent to various factors measured from your movement. Steps taken, calories burnt, hours won, kilometers run (for others Nike devices) and many others factors are translated to a single easy-to-understand unit: fuel points.

Nike Fuel is their way of measuring your activity. When you are active, you earn fuel. You set your goal in fuel then try to meet that goal everyday.

With a little experimentation you can figure out how much fuel to put in it to get about two hours out of it. About a third of the little measure that comes with it should be a good place to start.

no idea! LNG is sold by weight so I don't think the amount in gallons is important

Virtually nothing! With fuel cell, and pad, maybe 2 lbs. Be sure to order the belt holster to go with it, has two pockets allowing you to carry extra fuel and pads, the whole works doesn't weigh 2 lbs, thermacell, holster, fuel, pad, spare fuel, and spare pads. Clips on your belt, you don't even know it's there.

When I use it my goal is to accomplish 93 octane for 16 gallons of California 91 octane top tier fuel. It appears to do that.

Depends on the bottle, doesn't use much fuel, I only used it a couple of times and still on the first bottle. Will use it more this year.

Well, you really don't know. You kind of have to know how much is in the tank and how big the gas can is and calculate.

It's hard to see, but if you look inside the little window (where the spring is), you should be able to see the fuel level.

It does give you an instant mpg while driving, but the average mpg is calculated by mileage recorded by the device and your input on number of gallons of fuel.

Usually just 87 octane but I try to get gas without ethanol to prevent long-term gumming up of the fuel system. This thing has been rock solid starting on any fuel so far.

I believe you need higher quality diesel fuel. The guage on the fuel is cheap plastic and broke within the firt two times using. Now the fuel leaks when you move it. My opinion this is junk. I wish you read my review before buying. The thermometer guages heat immediately around unit, without fan in back unit turns off and on way too often. Unit should have a choice of 25,000 50,000 or 75,000 btu's. I should have bought used at garage sale. J.W.

No, it's only displays you current fuel economy. Only way to save fuel with this is with your foot!

Just as Patrick has answered, the most accurate way to check mpg is to fill up, start 0 trip (or write down your odometer on piece of paper if old car), drive mixed Hwy and city driving til you get to 1/4 tank, fill up again, write down your odometer reading and gallons used, example: 220 miles / 20 gal = 11 mpg. My employer reads the ECM data on the old truck I was assigned and it kept telling him I was getting 6.5 mpg. I used this technique and proved I was in fact only getting 4.7 mpg. He found that I had a bad injector that wasn't showing up on the scanner

Not sure what you mean, but there is no reserve of any kind built in. The fuel gauge should provide adequate status of remaining fuel.

OK, if I want to measure how many watts my refer uses in 24 hours,how do I do it on the 4460?Tx for any comments.

It doesn't measure wattage. I use a combination of rpms and resistance to measure progress. Not convenient if you're used to wattage. Resistance is computer controlled and is magnetic which means it's quiet and efficient. I like it a lot so far.

Rose, as I have stated before, I don't know exactly the amount of electricity used, however, I do know that my electric bill went up only slightly, while we saved a surprising amount of propane. Very satisfied with the overall savings.
