I tried to be pretty accurate, but circumstances differ. It would not be too far out to say that an org whose mission it is to promote pellets might tend to favor one side of the equation, just like those promoting other fuels (oil, electric, etc.) always give the best case.
It is good to consider that your mileage may vary.

You have the fuel calculator here but where the heck is the link?
I know you posted it here but where is the link listed on this forum?
