- 6 to 8 Langstroth jumbos, a few Langstroth and National nucs.
The scientific experiments tend to suggest a tolerance of +1 g with a base of 2.5g.
I use half that on nucs.

3g worked for me in a single national brood box when vaping under the floor. I used a plumbers soldering mat to place the head of the vaporiser on so it did not burn the mite tray. Foam in the entrance and to cover any gap where the mite tray slides in.
