I've been dry camping in Wyoming for about 2 months the last 4 years and get about 16-20 days per 20# bottle. The water heater is seldom used,
the oven has been on once just to see if it worked. Most of my cooking is done outdoors on an old stove or BBQ that are hooked up to a 3rd bottle that seems to last forever. Stove is used to heat water for washing, cleaning and coffee and non-greasy items. Seldom run the heater,
I fire up a lantern and put it down by my legs while I read or watch TV. Much quieter than the heater. I'd say the frig uses the most gas.
