The WSM will never get much beyond 8 hours on one load of charcoal. It's easy to totally refill and not lose power. Pick the center top piece as one unit, dump more charcoal and put center/top back on. Takes one minute.
I would not feel comfortable for anything beyond 5 hours without intervention on the WSM.
