One of my ski buddies, who is a promo driver, bought one after I sent him the original video last year.  He is very happy with how easy and effective it is, especially refueling during tournaments.   I think it might be better than the shaker hose as well.

Looks very well designed but I think the jiggler is still my go to. I can get every last drop out of a can by being able to peek into spot where the end of the hose is, I lift can and angle into the corner. I reckon over 2000 cans I must have added an extra gallon of gas into all boats I have filled 🙂

I had a shaker this looks way better.  Sure I could put the shaker down in a corner and get the last drop or I could just dump in the little bit that remains after walking away and doing something else while the can empties itself.  So cool.

I assume flow is much quicker than jiggler because there's nothing restricting the flow. However can the seal be slid along the tubing to suit different container heights?

Garden hose and not a clear one is what real men use!  Take a long draw and ram that hose in the tank! Sometimes leaves a little taste in the mouth so you can feel like a prize fighter getting a whiff of amonia...not get out there and ski!

When I'm going out of cans, I just use a clear 1" hose, wrap a rag around it to seal and squeeze the can until it flows, and pull the rag to let it fly.  Empties in less than a minute generally with the big hose.

IMO this is the best solution since as there is no siphon to deal with - just press a button and it fills. Pretty quick too. It has an auto shut off to prevent spills just like a real gas pump.

I had two tera pumps fail in two months. Their quality is not good. But then i found the cheap knockoff at Walmart for $20 and it’s worked great. 

Odd - I am going on year 3 with mine - running strong. I even accidentally hit the on button in the garage and let it run dry for about 20 mins :0
