I'm thinking a mini CC is comparable to a Minor and I get 2 1/2-3 hours out of my little tank, working soft glass.

Looks like the Mini CC is rated for 7 LPM. Do the math for the conversion.

Use will depend on flame settings. Let us know what your actual use is.

2 - 2-1/2 hours sounds about right, a little tank like that would be nice for hauling.

You Just now setting up... AH you will enjoy having all your own gear.
