Hi all. Been on here for years, but just got (finally) a Absolute 63 in brown.
Beautiful stove! Works real well.
Had prev exp with my parents old XXV, which I learned a great deal about how pellet stoves worked with. They only had a few minor issues over the 15+ years they ran it. (Still running, to my knowledge, btw)

Is there any info on the constant burn rate settings? Very little in the manual.
Does it directly relate to lbs burnt/Hr? Seems that at max (7.2 setting), the math seems to pretty much work out. 8600 BTU/HR for pellets (as spec on their website times 7.2 (max setting) is 61,920. Pretty much max btu rating of stove. Does the same hold to for settings of 4.0 or 6.0?

I guess I could do some tests to find out......just curious.
