    I picked some up for another member from ds tactical recently and they were only about $70 each. I do remember seeing some expensive Amazon cans that would have shipped out of Quebec, probably the same listing you found.

    Yeah. Princess Auto seems to have the shipping price. DS Tactical wants me to enter my credit card into a pretty mickey mouse little setup without much security or precalculated shipping. I'll go with Princess Auto. Plus then if I have an issue I can return it to their local store.

    You need a spout too unless you are going to make one or use a funnel

    I'll use a siphon tube. I've seen similar canisters used with one very successfully. Then I can mount the can on my new rack I'm building in a holder and not have to take it off to transfer gas.

    That's weird. It doesn't show me as being logged in.

    Yeah I remember the site wasn't as streamlined as it could have been. Princess Auto should work well for the reasons you already mentioned.

    I'm sure they are, but they need to update their website. It's not safe the way they have it setup. Given how their setup appears from just online, I won't be making a phone order at this time either.

    That's the plan. My bed rack mounts down to the bed which means I can have a holder right down safe in the box. With a siphon tube it should work great. If not I can go the funnel route or order their attachment tube.
