What did you guys write in "length of stay"?

I'm applying DTV 'workcation', and due to my work I'll be flying in & out often, sometimes few weeks, sometimes few months, not sure now.

So I'm worried, if I write my 1st length of stay 15 (or 65) days, they just might issue regular Tourist visa 60 days (or 6m METV) even if I apply & pay DTV (I saw a few cases here).

I'm applying at Thai embassy in Hungary, my 1st entry is at the end of this month, and I don't know how long will be my 1st stay yet.

I rent Thai condo annually (my current lease is from December 2024 until December 2025).

Thanks guys.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on what to write for the 'length of stay' section in their DTV 'workcation' visa application, expressing concern that listing a short duration may result in receiving a regular Tourist visa instead. They mention their unpredictable travel schedule and their long-term condo rental in Thailand. Community comments suggest indicating a length of stay around 175 to 180 days.
