When we've been away in winter for 10 days, Kayserserg & German, we used a full 11Kg and 1 day out of the other cylinder [2 days had EHU].
And no winter vents on the fridge.
We don't leave the heating on all night, as we hate it being too stuffy.
My mate was snowed in at Gravelines around Christmas, and he went through 11Kg in three days!
Gas consumption can be heavy in winter, especially if you are having it on 24/7.
I was using a 19Kg cylinder per week, or a 13+6 per week during the really cold spells. I am in the van 24/7 and have the heating on all the time.
So at worst I have enough for 1 week. In summer it was lasting me 7 weeks.

Wow Karl, thats a lot of gas you've ben using then.
I,ve never really measured our consumption whilst away in the winter. although to be fair its on a few days at a time(winter), even so i wouldn't have expected it to be so much, but you are much better placd than me to guage it.
the Gaslow guages can be a bit sticky (on the way down and after filling), so the readings can be a bit iffy.

I based my calculation of 4Kgms per day on how many litres of gas were required to refill my 11 Kgm gaslow bottle. I used the figure of 1 litre of LPG weighs 500gms.
