Default GPH?

Without a guage, I need suggestions as to how to estimate my gph use

there a better way?


Sure, fill tank. Run around at your usual speed for half an hour.
Refill, take that amount and multiply by two, the answer is your GPH.
You could do 15 minutes and multiply by four, but the less of a run
you make, the more inaccurate the result.
