Figures from each model’s own manufacturer documentation (spec sheets and manuals); runtime = documented tank capacity ÷ consumption at 50% load. Verify against the datasheet for your exact configuration.
Across 13 models with manufacturer data, full-load consumption runs 2.62–264.17 gal/h (median 66.57); at 50% load the median is 40.95 gal/h.
At 50% load, documented tank sizes give 38.3–38.3 hours (median 38.3 h) across 1 models.
