    How fucking big are American canisters? In Germany the regular size is 5l, [Edit: just shy of a bit more than] one gallon.

      Portable US gas tanks are typically 1, 2, or 5 gallon.

      I usually just grab a 5 gallon (about 20L) can to fill up my lawn mower, throw some fuel stabilizer in there, and then I don’t have to go back to the gas station for a long time.

        I do the same for my mower and mini bike. I can last a month on a 5g canister, well 5.5 gallons to the fill line according to the ⛽.
