I think I heard once of a stove that could run 42 hours off one fill of wood. Don't remember what it was. I want a stove that can last from around midnight to 7pm, that's nearly 20 hours. Any recommendations?

I usually fill it 1/2 to 3/4 full in the morning and the next morning there are a few half burned logs and coals in there that are still hot from the day before. I rake them forward and toss in another load of wood and that's it. Sometimes I will poke it at night, or add wood if it burned through some light decayed wood during the day, or we used a lot of hot water. On a cold night it will burn all the way down, but there is always enough heat and coals left to light the next load in the morning, especially after there is a good bed of ash in there.
Now, we live in mild Orygun here where the lowest temp I can remember was 8 degrees above zero F. But... we have a smaller OWB that is only rated at 250k BTU. There are much larger rated OWBs out there.
