Do fewer reeds make it last longer? Yes - each reed wicks oil, so fewer reeds mean a slower, longer-lasting release.
Does flipping use more oil? Flipping daily does - it refreshes the wicking and speeds use. Flip only when the scent dips.

The short answer
Short answer: fewer reeds, a cool still spot, flip only when needed, buy the 500ml.
Longest run: the 500ml refill - 14-18 months, ₹3,499.
Avoid: heat, sun, draughts and daily flipping.
Straight answer
Fewer reeds, a cool spot, and the big size
Stretching a refill is about slowing the rate the oil wicks away. Four habits do most of the work. Use fewer reeds: each reed pulls up oil, so three to four in a small room lasts far longer than eight. Keep it cool and still: heat, sun and draughts all speed evaporation - a cool, sheltered shelf is best, and it matters in Indian summers. Flip only when the scent dips, not every day, since each flip refreshes the wicking and speeds use. Refresh clogged reeds so you are not tempted to add more to compensate. And simply buy the big size - a 500ml refill holds far more oil and lasts 14-18 months. From ₹2,399.
One line: fewer reeds, a cool still spot, flip only when needed, and buy the 500ml - it lasts 14-18 months. From ₹2,399.
Longest run: the 500ml refill, up to 18 months, ₹3,499.

Four habits that stretch a refill
1
Reeds
Use fewer
Each reed wicks oil. Three to four reeds in a small room lasts far longer than eight - add reeds only when you want more throw.
2
Placement
Cool and still
Keep it out of sun, heat and draughts - all speed evaporation. A cool, sheltered shelf makes one fill last.
3
Flipping
Only when needed
Flip only when the scent dips, not daily - each flip refreshes wicking and uses oil faster.
The SOSA principle
Longevity is a matter of slowing the wick - fewer reeds, a cool shelf, less flipping.
Those habits plus the 500ml size carry a room for well over a year. From ₹2,399.
Keep it full
Make it last - the 500ml refill, up to 18 months, from ₹3,499.
