Estimate fuel burned and cost of running a generator daily.
The hourly fuel burn is multiplied by run hours for total gallons, and the daily cost follows from multiplying by fuel price. Backup power burns fuel fast, so knowing daily consumption tells you how long supplies last and what an outage really costs.
