Go on Amazon or to your local motorcycle shop and buy a "utility" jug. VP racing makes nice ones. No EPA bullshite.

Those new spouts have their own cell signal and report back to the EPA your fossil fuel consumption so they know what camp to send you to when the time comes.

I've seen one where you need to press a small red button on the spout and there's no handle to support the back.
It's an accident waiting to happen.
Designed by committee of people who will never use them.

The old Blitz yellow cap vented spouts are worth more than their weight in gold

Nah, ive had power since 4pm yesterday. We were one of the first in ebr to get power back that lost it bc we live right across the street from the target on millerville and they made frickin sure to get that place powered up before anything else. Thats one of the benefits living within 500 yards of a target i guess.

Man, i must be in the minority but I find that the green button cans are 100x better than the past designs where the whole nozzle had to be pushed in to get fuel to come out.

For those, I had already replaced with a traditional universal nozzle, but the newest can with the green pushbutton, I haven't really had any issues.

I could see it being hard to fill a vehicle, but it works well for the generator and lawnmower.

Yes sir, learned this after Laura. Solution, find a Harbor Freight and buy their battery powered liquid transfer pump- D batteries not included.
Your misery then ends and you don’t smell like gas!
