Has anyone used the burn time calculator that is in the Hearth.com articles? I was wondering how close it is to being correct. I wish it covered bigger fireboxs than 5 cubic ft but ... It don't https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/articles/burn_time_calculator

It should be easy enough to use the table to compute any size since it appears to follow a consistent formula. The btu amount of a 2.5 cubic ft burn times 2 is what the table shows for a 5 cubic ft burn. Just a matter of ratios for any size should get you in the ballpark?

I haven't really played with it, but I would say it's in the ballpark, but don't bet the farm on it...
