Review on Wavian USA JC0020RVS Red Authentic NATO Jerry Fuel Can and Spout System (20 Liter) - Reliable and Versatile Fuel Storage Solution by Ryan Ramirez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent gas cartridges

First of all. Those are big gas cans. They are very durable and have an airtight seal. You can place them in the back of your SUV and don't have to worry about gas fumes getting into the cabin. In addition, due to their rectangular shape, these gas cylinders are very compact, especially when storing large quantities, and can also be easily stacked. The weak point of these cans is the CARB compatible spout they come with. To get around this, you can purchase additional European-style flexible spouts for $30 each, or use a Super Siphon. However, the buyer should be aware of two things: 1) No, this is not a real NATO specification. If you want the real NATO specification, you need to look for gas cartridges marked "7240-12-179-5054" on the side. Wavian gas cartridges do not have this marking. However, they are as close as civilians are usually to buying NATO-style gas canisters. They are manufactured by Valpro, a NATO military supplier, and are manufactured in the same factory as real NATO compliant gas cartridges. material difference. Genuine Valpro military gas cylinders are made of aluminized steel that will not rust. Wavian canisters are made from automotive steel, which will rust if the paint is scratched. 2) These canisters are overpriced in the US: Valpro sells the exact same gas canisters in Europe under the Valpro brand for between $20 and $25 each. However, because Wavian canisters are the only CARB-compatible NATO-style gas cartridges, they can cost a lot more in the US.
