Except for the color, is there a difference between the red gasoline can and the blue water can? The red can cannot be imported to Calif.

I could use these for fuel if I wanted to. Very happy with them. I dont know anything about the red can.

There is no real difference as far as design and function. However it does have "potable water" written/moulded on the side. Whereas a red container would have something like warning flammable liquid or danger explosive written on the side. If I am not mistaken gasoline must be in approved containers that have that warning and are red, diesel and kerosene are in similar containers but green. So if you fill a blue one with gasoline I suppose you could get in trouble or face a fine. Your local hardware or outdoors store should have 5 gallon gas cans for a reasonable price.

i believe its just one can for sale for that price. you do have an option of either black or red though!

Have not really noticed much difference from one can to another. One might have a little more liquid at the top. It really makes no difference. The bigger problem has been cans coming in dented. I have had to call twice and Amazon replaced them.

Some sellers may not offer shipping to California for ALL their K&N; products as K&N; has some products that are not allowed to be used in California. If you order from our marketplace store MDI Performance, we do not have the California restriction on this item as it doesn't apply.

No. This is the military water can (MWC). The Scepter brand and equivalent military fuel cans (MFC) not only have a different handle, but the cap is different (to include different gaskets for different types of fuels). Although you could certainly put fuel in it, the MWC was not intended to hold fuel, and will likely leak.

You can only go by what the manufacturer says and that is that all parts that come in contact with water are BPA free. The customer that claims the California prop issue needs to do some more research about what that means. There isn't a single water distribution system on the market that isn't flagged by that proposition so every drop of water you use has already passed through piping prop 65 deems questionable.

Yes, it meets all federal standards, but the color also indicates the type of fuel you can put in a can. Red is for gasoline only, Yellow is for diesel fuel only, Blue is for kerosene. They also make Green but I do not know what that color is used for.MikeM

I've used them in several regions of California, and I now live off the coast of Washington. Not sure on the comparison basis because I don't know how the water types match up.....but I do know I had hard water in San Diego, CA. The different water types do not seem to affect the product. Why don't you just get a small bag or sample to try first? I have found that people have a lot of difficulty accepting that these little things work, probably due to their shape, etc. Why don't you ask the company for a sample?

This is not meant for fuel, it's specifically for water. The plastic is not the same and will decay.

I have used both. The impact is the same but the red lid seems to be newer.

I think the one I got was the 20-50. Too red for my diving (so calif). I ordered the light magenta filter for "green" water. It works fine. Otherwise this is by far the best filter I have tried. I have tried and lost just about every other one on the market.

That is correct. There are 2 colors available - one is clear and one is blue. We ordered two which were about $11 a piece and they shipped us one of each. Please note that one had a slow leak and one was perfect. If possible, blow it up within 30 days because if it has a slow leak, they will refund you.

Simply put California has a stricter NOx emissions than any other state, this product will only do so much to remove smog from ur exhaust, they do not want to be liable for this state unfortunately. Same reason that most after market cats are not allowed there either, they just won't do good enough jobs getting rid of the nitrogen and other contaminants in the air.

I was told by the customer service team leader it could not be shipped to my address in CA due to shipping restrictions. I'm not sure why as it contains no liquids, flammable agents, or hazmats. I see it at the pet store 5 blocks away from me for $2 more.

the stainless are against the law to ship to CA. That should tell you something about the product.

I think the only difference is the red one is concentrated. You'll have to dilute it with distilled water, whereas the pink one is premixed already. The price is almost the same.

There is not. The color is the result of the two ingredients mixing in water. Whenever these two mix you have the color.
