I don't really know what to say to you guys. Bill Cohron is responsible for much of the software/firmware in the Edge/Gryphon and when he states the Avg Econ uses 100,000 samples, I have to believe him. I know when I used to monitor it, the Gryphon's value would stay more constant than my dashboard message center's readout, which tells me the dash readout DOES use a smaller sample size.
And, in my case, sometimes the dash readout would be exactly what I would "hand calculate", at other times it would be a bit high. The Gryphon was always higher.
I HAVE determined that when my "low level warning" comes on, I have about 60 miles of gas remaining, assuming normal fuel usage rates (and how much I was able to put into the tank when this happened).
I really don't monitor Avg or Inst Econ anymore. I just use the trip odometer feature in the dash and the gas gauge itself.
