hi there

guess it depends what type of fridge and gas tank you have.
Mine is really economical and i guess they're all like that cause it's a small pilot that warms the refrigant.
A full tank will keep you chilled and cooking for at least a week or so.

Have a good festie

A Camping Gaz 907 bottle lasted us nearly for three weeks in Norway, not very hot but we were cooking and brewing up tea off the same bottle as the fridge
