Actual composition of the canister is pretty rugged.
What was purchased is what I got, and it works wonderfully. Not sure what else could be asked for

Rotopax cans are expensive, but worth it for permanent mounting and use
I have had 2X 2 gallon Rotopax cans on my Jeep for over 10 years, and they have held up extremely well. When it came time to add fuel storage to my new truck, it wasn't even a question, I was going with Rotopax again.I went with the smaller 1 gallon can for the truck, as I would only be using it for emergency fuel and wanted to be able to store it on my Molle bed panels. The 1 gallon fits well on them, without interfering with the tonneau cover.I've only had the can mounted for a couple of months, but it has already helped. I saw someone walking the highway with a gas can, and stopped to give them some fuel and get them back on the road. I think it's good karma to help someone, and a rotopax fuel can mounted on my vehicles has helped out a lot of stranded motorists throughout my travels.

Quality Fuel Transportation
My GS has a range of only around 225 miles or so, and fuel stations can be sparse out west. Instead of looking for a used GSA and all the hassles of buying/selling vehicles, I spent around $100 for the 1g can and mount. Not necessary, but I fabbed up a mounting plate that plugs in like the pillion seat so it's quick-release and easy to remove when I'm not touring. If I ever find myself able to get away for the Alaska trip, I'm going to buy another can and the double mount thingy to carry two gallons.My only gripe is that the can is labeled one gallon, but I can only ever really get like .8 gallons when filling. I'm not sure if I should go a full gallon and assume there will be room for the filler tube, but it's also not worth the possible mess.I'm not in love with the filler tube, but I played around with it and hacked the system so it's a lot easier to use.

Awesome product
These gas cans are expensive, but damn they're awesome. I was a little skeptical, but I'm impressed with how sturdy they are and more so, how well they secure down in place. I have a couple attached to a camping trailer. They're purely as backup, just in case I'm on a long road trip and run out of gas between stations. I've come close too many times to not have a gas can as backup.In terms of the expense, yeah I feel a little foolish spending a total of something like $130 on the cans, mounts etc. But they're high quality and I really should have them forever. If I sell my trailer, I'll take these with me because you can mount them anywhere.FYI - all gas cans intended to hold gas (red can) comes with the new CARB spouts. You will see many reviews of people complaining about them. They pour slowly and can spill more gas than they were intended to protect against. I would recommend getting either the spout for the water jugs or the flexible vented spout. They are sold separately. These spouts are a little more predictable when pouring gas, which means you spill less gas. But of course pay attention to how full your vehicle is, to avoid over filling!....hence the intent of CARB restrictions. (Good intentions, bad implementation)I passed on getting the locks. I heard too many complaints about them sticking. I'm sure it's only a small number of people with this issues, but heaven forbid the one time I need spare gas is the one time I can't actually get the lock to unlock. My cans sit outside my trailer, so they are exposed to all kinds of rain, dust, dirt, etc. The locks are exposed, so no covers (future design idea they should consider). I bet that's part of their problem. I ended up just using a cable lock system, running it through the handles and securing it to the trailer via a padlock and u-bolt. I was more worried about someone just taking the can vs the gas. If they really need the gas, they can have it, but this way they can't take the can too! I wanted to prevent the grab and run type theft. So far, so good.

Not exactly 1 gallon
Only getting .8 of a gallon before it starts spilling out. Then when you put the pour spout in the stowed position, it pushes a little more fuel out. So you won't be getting a full gallon, but something is better than nothing. I'd rather have .8 spare fuel than none and stranded. Would've given 5/5 if it stored a full gallon or even a little more.
