zelek Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I'm walking out tomorrow on the ice and don't really care to drag my 20 lbs tank out. Does anyone know how long could I could expect a 1 lbs cylinder to burn with a Mr. Heater Cooker turned up on high?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 1DIRTBALL Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 One and a half to 2 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Fergus Mor McErc Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Yep...that's all I get when I use a 1#er. Maybe a little longer if I keep it on low all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 schweady Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I've averaged 3 hours per 1 lb canister on medium heat. That's about all the heat output I've needed so this year far in my Otter Cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bobb-o Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 have you thought aboot getting a 5lb tank? they are pretty handy to have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 schweady Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Only have hauled the Cabin out by hand once by myself for a quarter mile or so to my spot. Wasn't that bad, but took enough to let me know that I need to think about every pound I toss into the sled. It's a big enough tub to encourage that "might-as-well-bring-it-along" attitude, and have done enough canoe portaging to know how dangerous that can be. Bought a case of pounders a ways back and it worked out to around $1.66 each. Maybe shoulda bought a few more cases. But I'm spending less on heat than bait, so not too concerned.

0 Northlander Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I get about 4 hours on low and maybe 3 on medium. I hardly ever use med or high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
