Weird. They've been around for years but someone at Flip-fuel obviously has a marketing budget and isn't afraid to use it.

I do this, but a word of warning.
Weigh the can before, note the weight on the can which states it's full weight.....
But never over fill this weight on the can, because it's easy to do and it makes lighting your burner like dodging a volcano with no control.

I thought you loved a good light shown John

It can also help to freeze the can that's receiving the gas

Have been doing this for a while also. Nice to be throwing away one less thing!

Slight edit to my post to correct a spelling mistake from "not" to "note"
It should and now does read
"the weight on the can which states it's full weight"

They're a great little device ! Better to reuse than throw away.... buy a larger gas cannister for cheaper gas and it makes the smaller ones far more economical.

And don't mix gasses, only swap the same gas from one to the other
