I know this is a bit of a how long is a piece of string but how long should a tank of gas last with the fridge on all the time and cooking every day. I have tried to find the gas consumption for the fridge as this should be constant but can't find any figures. Anyone got any ideas.

We have had our Westfalia since 2007, each year we do a summer Euro trip normally around 3 weeks (22/24 days) we have the fridge on gas (where sites haven't got hookup) we mostly use a cadac Easy Chef Deluxe on the BBQ take off point or cooker hob...plus cups of tea and coffee regularly every day over that time.
Given that the tank fills to 80% we have usually got between 10 and 20% remaining on the gas tank gauge.
So the short answer for us would be around 30 days camping.
Hope this helps......never ran out of gas even after 3 and a half weeks.

I definitely agree with Martin, for last couple of years have done very similar trips, have cadac BBQ too and get same results
