Can't comment for heatbeads, but I manage well over 12 hours on 5kg of lumpwood. Save your heatbeads and go to Sainsburys - the basics lumpwood is £4 for 4kg and is actually damn good stuff. Use the heatbeads when you cook

I have not done a big cook yet 6hrs max, I switched to big k ach15 and never looked back it is better than any lump wood I have used.
I used under 5kg on my cheap offset and got a good 6hrs
