    Hi Dave

    I have a medium and if I load it with Royal Oak to the top of the fire ring at 225º it will burn for at least 24 hours. I have the same set up including the DigiQ and it will burn at low temps for a long, long time. I don't know what lump you use and that may be a factor, that is why I specified that I use Royal Oak.

    I have a medium and get between 16 and 20 hours with a full load of lump and a 250 dome temp. Full load = top of fire ring.

    Yes, and longer. I've done 20 hours. No electronics at all.
