Not sure why. This has been a productive thread, with good advice and just some minor misunderstanding. But all in the best spirit of helpfulness.
To answer your original question: search this forum. I remember a discussion some years back. Here is how I remember it:
The life of bb depends on how dirty your filter is. A fellow member reported his canister turning into a stinky mass within hours of an outage. Others had filters survive a day, but only if they had been recently cleaned.
Makes sense?
