Your alc% may be higher if your putting more heat in, which would bring the volume down.

outta 1 8.5kg I'll get 2 ~40l strips and 1 ~40l spirit run. Maybe a little left over. Mine puts out 104,000btu

I just got hold of a 44 so I gonna cut up an insulator in the next few days, that should save a bit!
