I have 6 of them, they all work great. Kept a few in my truck over the winter, froze solid, no issues once they thawed out.

Quite a few of us have them... after adding an o-ring to the vent they seal up just fine and have bounced all over Utah with me.

I've got about 8 of them. We're on well water that goes out on occasion, so they are my camping, and household back-up.

No problems with a few winters and a trip to MX on them.

good deal I think I'll order a couple.

Hey what would keep someone from painting and using one of these as a fuel container???

Kurt - where did you pick up the o-rings? Just your local hardware store?

From a local industrial hose/rubber supply outfit though they are nothing special. I can't remember exactly what I used off the top of my head (its here in a thread somewhere), I'm thinking it was 3/8" with a 1/16" cross section. I took one off of a Scepter and matched it up from there.

How much did you save on a group buy? If the savings are good would someone be willing to take shipment and deliver them to the Expo and divy them up? I'd be in for 4.
