Candi sugar for priming?

[NorthCountyBrewing]

I'm sure this thread is on here somewhere but...I've bottled with the Brewer's Best Light Candi Sugar before but I seem to not be able to get consistent results. It comes in small chunks about 3/8" and usually drop 2 pieces in each bottle. I use 16oz and 64oz bottles(more sugar here). How much sugar is used typically to prime? Does beer type/gravity/yeast play a factor? Also If I keg in my 5G corny I'll use less than if bottled individually but never stays carbed long. I only have 16g CO2 cans to "force" carb it so that's not really an option until I man up and get a tank. Thanks for any feedback.

If you are unsure then use a calc like this...

I would guess about 3.1 grams of sugar per 16oz bottle. Is there a reason you use candi sugar to prime? I simply use table sugar, it produces no off flavors that I notice, and it's cheap.

I started with candi sugar as it was easy to get into a bottleneck cleanly. The light sugar really has no flavor and have just never steered away from it. Thanks for the responses. After I run out of this bag I may just switch to table sugar for cost reasons.
