Does anyone know how many pounds of pellets the Breckwell uses based on each Heat Level from 1 to 5?

[pibe75]

Hello:

I am not sure if this has been asked before but I just wanted to know if anyone knows how many pounds of pellets per hour the breckwell brands (I have a p23I) or similar breckwell models use based on each heating level.

This is all I know From the manual: 1 & 3 are illuminated - 0.9 pounds per hour

I would like to know the others:

1 & 4 is illuminated - ?
1 is only illuminated - ?
2 is illuminated - ?
3 is illuminated - ?
4 is illuminated - ?
5 is illuminated - ?

If anyone can provide that information it will be greatly appreciated.

Thx.

This is just a rough estimate so do not pull out your stop watch and scale.
#1 approx. one pound an hour
#2 approx. two pounds per hour
#3 approx. three pounds per hour
#4 approx. four pounds per hour
#5 approx. five pounds per hour

My Big-E will use 2-1/4 bags on number 4 in 24 hours

I got 40 hours on #3 manual on 3 bags /120 lbs. SOOOOOO much heat it almost killed me . So I used about 3 lbs an hour on #3.

on a Big e the rating is almost right but on 5 the burn rate is 5.5 lbs a hour
on the smaller models it varies some stoves at 5 will only burn 4.5lbs a hour
