    We use ones similar to the pic.
    Not the cheap ones though.
    We have had 2 or 3 of them in about 20 years.
    Never had a problem with them and they last.
    NASA recommended them for Skylab, and now I recommend to you.

    What as an emergency escape tool?
    2005 GU IV ST 3.0. Snorkel. Roof rack. Awning. Spots. Welded I/C. Dual batteries & VSR. UHF. Barn door hinge extension. Roof top spot lights. Rear drawers. 2" lift. NADS. EGT and boost gauges. Trans temp and water temp gauges. Provent 200 catch can. Rear ladder


    And crawling on the planet's face, some insects called the human race. Lost in time. And lost in space... and meaning.

    Fred needs a good smack in the head to get him working, TD.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    I have got a MagiCan Auto, holds the lid & has an eject button, mainly gets used on home brew cans, you can hold the lid while you rinse it.
    I have had it for around 15 years or so, works right every time.
    I still think the old butterfly type were the best, but there are too many cheap copies around.
