I wasn't going to gloat but seeing as you brought it up.
This seems a bit like gloating
Told yah! And everyone else. !![]()
It is a pity as you would have lost.
I wouldn't have lost, he is using over 900g each off grid day.
Originally we both thought it was 45 days off grid.
We plan to be away for 45 days
You said he would use under 20 kg for 45 days off grid = 20,000 / 45 = 450g per day
Ill bet you wont even use half of it.
I said he would use 750g per day
I'm not as confident as Barryd
When it comes to gas planning I use the following based on Manufacturers specifications and personal experience.
Cooking - 350 ; Fridge - 400 gram per day .
So 750 g per day for 45 days = just under 34 kg. If all your cylinders are full to start with you have 39kg. So only 10% contingency.
Hopefully you will eat out a few days and save some cooking gas, but on the other hand you will also use a fair bit for showers and washing up.
You did of course start changing the goal posts
Nope, the bet I proposed was.
If it is more than 700g (700g for 45 days = 32 kg) You give £10 to my charity.
If it is less than 600 g (600g for 45 days = 27kg) I'll give £10 to your charity.
If it is between 600 and 700g we each give £10 to the others charity.

Considering his gas usage overall including the 30% of days when he has eaten out or had EHU and used no gas.
He has used 13kg in 26 days which is 500g per day.
If he continues this use pattern he will use 22.5kg, which is more than half.
