Just put the last bag from the first ton in my stove and wondering how others are doing? We live in western Connecticut and it has been unseasonably cold. 17 degrees the other morning. I'M NOT COMPLAINING especially given that some folks near Buffalo have had upwards of 7' of snow in the last week. I'm just asking. Hope all is well with all of you and wishing you all A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

about 25 bags so far since middle October.
 
About 75 bags since September.
 
23 bags since 3rd week in September.
 
Been cold, about 2 bas a day for the last 8 days
 
I've gone through 30 bags since November 1st. I was running about a bag a day. Except for lately when the sudden cold blast came in. I had to bump up the feed rate a little.
 
Just dumped the last 15 bags from the first ton in the rubbamaid garbage cans on the back deck this morning. So much easier that way. 4 rubbamaid plastic garbage cans = 15 bags. Still have 5 ton in the barn. Makes good cat beds....==c
 
About 35 bags so far since Oct 1st. And yes this past week here in CT I am using more then a bag a day. Brrrrrrrrrr
 
70 bags since beginning of October. Just got 4 T delivered last Monday and 4T more to come in December.
 
I'm on bag 42 today. Just did a shut down and did my first thorough cleaning today. I'm new to pellet burning this year. Not as hard as I thought it was going to be.

42??? Wow.

I clean every 10 or so.
 
Not sure how many pellets I've burned, but the most important number is roughly 2: the number of gallons of fuel oil I probably burned when we went away for a weekend.

Just put the first bag of my 2nd ton in today so I guess that makes 51. Starting on the EasyHeats, interested in seeing how they compare to the White Lightnings I just finished. Been burning since mid-October. Keeps house in the mid-70's.
 
26 bags, 5+ tons to go.
 
You all are scaring me. I just ordered 3 tons (150 bags) and the really cold season hasn't started yet. And my stove's not installed yet.
 
18 bags between the 2 stoves since 11/1. Keep the house around 70. Love these Presto Logs.
 
Bag #3 is in the hopper waiting for cold weather to return. Wood insert doing most of the work.
 
Just dumped the 40th into hopper - that's starting from October 1st.
