that's my plan, i should have enough capacity to recharge electronics and run a small fridge

For gas cans, if you have a spare car, use it as a gas can and siphon from it. Holds a heck of a lot more. Could use your primary car too as long as you're very careful with that you need in the car vs use.

I have an extra gender

Everyone should have a jiggler for siphoning fuel. Keeps you from sucking on gas fumes.

is that the tube with the little ball check valve inside?

why are those better than the class bump/hand pump style? does walmart sell them?

9/11/2018 4:59:47 PM

they're better than the hand pump because they begin siphoning quicker and more reliably, in my experience. idk about walmart. i think harbor freight has them.

a cheap little 12v fuel pump and a set of leads long enough to reach the battery under the hood is even better.
