*Creating a Temperature Difference Between Canisters
There must be a slight temperature difference between the two canisters to allow fuel to
flow from one can to the other. The temp differential does not have to be extreme for a
fuel transfer to be successful.
There are many simple ways to create a temperature difference between the two canisters.
Here are some recommendations and ideas:
ā€¢ Set one canister in the sun. Keep one canister in the shade of your pack.
ā€¢ Set one canister in the sun. Use a cup of ice (leftover ice from a drink etc.) from a
local store when you're in town refueling on a thru-hike. Place one canister in
the shade with some of this ice around it.
ā€¢ Set one canister in the sun. Place one canister in a freezer or air-conditioned
room if you're stopping overnight in town on the trail.
ā€¢ Place one canister in the freezer and sit on the other one like chicken (see video for details)Ā 
ā€¢ And many more ways.

This thing rocks!

This thing rocks! It sure beats having a bunch of half-full canisters lying around. How many times have you left a partially full canister at home because you weren't sure if it had enough for the whole trip and you didn't want to bring two with you? This solves that problem. And then I use their Handled tool to properly recycle the spent fuel canisters.
