Alpenglow says:
This is the world's lightest tool to transfer fuel between canisters! You can split larger canisters at home, siphon from half-full canisters, or even drain a canister before recycling-- all for 3.1 grams (0.11 oz).
By creating a temperature difference between the canisters, liquid fuel will flow from the donor (on top) to the colder recipient (on bottom).
Saturn Revision: This updated version includes feedback from thousands of trail miles: instructions, a lanyard loop, and a wider outline are all now baked into the body so it's easier to use, keep, and find.
