Don't Shake that Can!XIKAR Experts Kurt and Scott
Through form of habit we often shake a can or jar of liquid to determine how much is left. While this is fine practice with a deodorant spray or air freshener it is NOT OK to shake your can of butane right before you refill your butane lighter!
Shaking the can increases the amount of propellant in the mixture that goes into the lighter tank. Anything other than fuel in the tank will cause ignition problems, including excess propellant.
I am going to try to remember this, because I tend to shake aerosols as a habit.
