          A:  I believe that the device mentioned is the interesting nozzle that you have to use. You push a button on the end of the black nozzle to release fuel. I suspect that the "device" keep fumes from escaping and becoming a fire hazard.

          A:  It was the result of government regulation, OSHA attempting to mitigate a problem that wasn't really a problem. Have you ever heard of anyone catching fire because they spilled gas while refueling their lawnmower or what have you?

It also cautions that kerosene degrades after three months, so don't buy more than you need for that time period: https://homeguides.sfgate.com/how-to-store-kerosene-13419278.html

                A:  FMD stands for Flame Mitigation Device, According to Easy Can, who makes the product: "No Spill Inc., manufacturer of NO SPILL® fuel cans, announced today that a newly developed and patented (US 9,174,075, US 10,029,132) Flame Mitigation Device (FMD) designed by the company will be factory installed in all NO SPILL fuel cans from this date forward. The Flame Mitigation Device was designed utilizing newly developed technology and has passed rigorous testing under latest ASTM-supported testing method. As with all NO SPILL products, the new design meets all standards for portable consumer fuel containers. “NO SPILL has always been committed to providing products that allow users to do their jobs safely and effectively” said company President Tom Cray. “We have spent several years working on the development of this FMD and it will provide an added layer of protection for our customers. Now that our design has passed a rigorous testing protocol, we are proud to make this new development available to our customers and increase NO SPILL’s value proposition yet again.” The FMD utilizes C2R technology recently patented by No Spill. Unlike metal flame arrestors or other flame mitigation devices that commonly use thermal quenching, C2R technology mitigates flame propagation through chemistry by influencing the air to fuel mixture ratio. More information can be found on the website C2Rtech.net."

                A:  Flame Mitigation Device (FMD) Gasoline is very hazardous and contains vapors. The safest use of a gas can is common sense use. The Flame Mitigation Device (FMD) is an additional safety device that can prevent internal vapor ignition. This device must never be removed or altered. To fill your tank, place the gas nozzle straight into the tank opening, the nozzle will rest on one of the ledges inside the FMD. The first ledge is for diesel and kerosene tanks, the second ledge is for gasoline.

                  A:  No, the nozzle will not fit in the can. It should stay attached as pictured.

                  by|Sep 8, 2020

                    A:  No, it is a new anti-evaporation cap

                    by|Sep 8, 2020

                    A:  No, the nozzle is attached to the cap, so it is not possible to remove it and store it inside the can. The cap/nozzle assembly is too large to fit into the can.

                    by|Sep 7, 2020

                    A:  No.

                      A:  yes, its definitely long enough and it has a little horn to catch the edge of the tanks filler pipe to stay open. IMO it's a little slow of a fill for a car but perfect for tiny gas tanks like a mower, trimmer or a leaf blower.

                            A:  I would say no! The spout nozzle of the gas can needs to be directly over what you’re filling and most car’s gas fill will be off to the side!

                            A:  No and Yes. I was not able to fill one car because the spout is too bulky. I was able to fill another car but was not able to empty the gas can. I will probably get a hose to help.

                                A:  An interesting question. Not knowing the generator's fill hole and any obstructions it would be difficult to completely answer your question. However I can say that the spout extends a couple of inches past the side of the container and does aid in filling. If you still have difficulty when you practice filling your generator on calm days, consider having a funnel attached to the generator and ready to use. Hope this info helps and be safe.

                                A:  It should. You can turn the 'can' upside-down if necessary to get the spout into the fuel tank, no fuel will flow out until you press the button built into the can lid / spout. The fuel flow will stop quickly when you release the lid / spout button. Works very well for me, no spillage.

                                  A:  It should unless your gas cap is deeply recessed. The gas can nozzle extends 3 1/2 inches from the can.
