Page 34 of the manual gives an average of 5 fuel per second.

Slightly off topic but relevant to receiving updates for 2017

Last year I received notices of game updates through an app on my phone. This year, I recommended to team members to get this app on their phones too since it is much more convenient to get a notification than to go to the website and search for the updates.

Searching the app store, no one found the app listed anymore. And my app didn't get a notification of this game update. Seems to not be functioning for this season.

what are the rest of you using to get these updates automatically? any suggestions?

Twitter. Following @frcteams. It's sometimes a bit spammy for my taste, but the timely notices make up for it.

(And I should note, I have an extremely low tolerance for SPAM, YMMV.)

... And they do respond to tweets too!

Thanks! Not sure how I missed it in my reading or in my search. Any idea where the 15 fuel/second comes from?

There was something about processing up to 8 Fuel/Second in a full hopper. So, if the High and Low hopper were full, it could process about 15 fuel/second combined.
