8.5 bags used for October (had 1/2 bag left from last year). Stoves were started up on 10/9/25. They have mainly just been going at night, using thermostats to let them start up / shut down when appropriate.
I used 28 bags for the month, which makes it 36 for the season so far. I did not use the mini split at all. And although the month has been colder than average, with barely any sun, I've used less pellets than in years before I had the mini split.
