Review on πŸ”§ Gas Spout - Upgraded Replacement Spout and Cap for Pre-2009 Gas Cans and Water Jugs (White or Black Set) by Draven Invert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Includes vent and flame arrestor

I bought this to replace the spout on my gas bottle because the bottom cap was cracked. After all, I've done way too much research on gas lines and I like these for a number of reasons. First, it's a very simple design that delivers gas very well and seals the tank very well. My gas canister came with one of those self-closing spring-loaded canisters that were very difficult to use and also never closed, even with a lid. This one just tilts and pours and the lid is pretty tight. Second, it has an air vent and a lid. Due to environmental regulations, gas cylinders can no longer be legally sold, which is definitely affecting bottling. Instead of a steady flow, it squirts out, causing spills. Modern gas cylinders are supposed to have "self-venting for fill and pour" but I don't think they work properly. You can modify your (empty) gas cylinder to add a vent and solve this problem. Last but not least, it includes a muzzle flash hider. This is a metal grid designed to prevent sparks from entering the can and turning it into a bomb. The Blitz Banks had no Blitz Suppressors and the company was declared bankrupt. Whether it's user error (people use glasses near flames) or environmental factors (static electricity) causing harm to people, it's nice to know that a glass has a 5 cent function that can help keep me from getting hurt to preserve.

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • old
