Lightbulb Reda Gas Can

My bud, Caveman, bought one for him and one for me.

Reda Gas Can
http://www.redagascan.com/

It's super cool. Built really durable, compact size, fits perfectly in my HD saddle bag, holds 1 gallon of gas, and won't spill when you pour it.

The nozzle has a valve in it. Once you flip the can upside down and place the nozzle into your filler neck, you place it into the groves to hold it in place, then push down on the neck. This opens the butterfly valve at the base (green) of the nozzle releasing the petro.

Very cool and will use it on my road trips. Just in case.

What's the point of this? Your Caddy holds like 13 gallons anyway...thats not enough to get you to the next gas station?

This lets them take more breaks at bars instead of gas stations.

Then you'd need another one once you break the seal...

That one would also doubles as a KY dispenser for those lonely nights on the road.

Wow, this thread went to shit and we are still on page 1.

That gas can seems like a neat idea for a niche product, its still pretty cool in its design, but I would worry about any vapors that could leak (even if the company says its leak proof). I Think there are better options out there, but this one is cool
