The only reason I bring this up is if a person does reset it at every fill up then there would be less samples to draw from thus sitting at an idle would have a bigger drop? Am I applying the right reasoning?

Yep, but as I said earlier 4 tanks is not always the 28 hours. I could burn through 4 tanks about 16 hours depending on how much I drive. I would only reset it after maybe you make a large change. As in when they change from winter to summer gas or if you put on new tires. Once you start getting past 50K readings the mileage isn't going to change much.

Haha, its a shame the gryphon cant record run time like some of those bike odometers. Mine will show how many minutes/hours I've have been riding the bike for. I wonder if Bill could add a feature like that to the gryphon. It probably wouldn't be hard if he can because the gryphon records engine run time for the average mileage anyways, 1 reading per second. Take the readings and divide them by 3600 and you have runtime hours. But I dont know much about the development capabilities on his side. As far as I know he could make the gryphon shoot out fire and sparks if he wanted.
