Over 78 hours is usually sufficient to eliminate EtG regardless of amount consumed. There are however cases where heavy, long term drinking, has been detectable for around 96-100 hours post consumption. (Beck, et al 2007) (http://alcalc.oxfordjournals.org/content/42/4/321.full) However, the 80 hour range, so widely promoted, is in fact a rare exception and derives mostly from Detox studies of chronic alcoholics. (Wojcik & Hawthorne (http://alcalc.oxfordjournals.org/content/42/4/317.full#T1))
