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 5 models with manufacturer data, full-load consumption runs 7.40–19.73 gal/h (median 16.91); at 50% load the median is 5.92 gal/h.
At 50% load, documented tank sizes give 39.3–39.3 hours (median 39.3 h) across 1 models.
