You should be able to get close to a day from a bag.
If you set the low feed rate to 3, instead of 6, on 1-3 you can get 26-28 hours
depending on your pellet size..
(if you need info on the feed rate, just search "magic buttons")

Dan when I do that do I have to change it when it gets really cold out or can I leave it on 3. Thanks

You will need to play with the settings as it gets colder outside.
Low settings ---- 24 - 28 hours per bag
Mid settings (4 - 6 on the heat setting) -- 12 - 18 hours
High settings (7 - 9) under 10 hours

That is something you will have to decide based on your own application.
Like how big your area is, how tight is it, and how warm you like it..
Just remember, for all practical purposes... there is no magic.
It's strictly more pellets in/burned = more heat.
You don't live in an 'extremely' cold area, you may get by with the lower setting.
You can always go up one click at a time.. these lower adjustments are not mindblowing
differences, so give it a while to settle in before making quick changes.
Just my opinion... YMMV....

( Clad's estimates seem close to what I see as well...)
