    Default HEET bottle caps New Design

    Just found out that the caps on the Yellow HEET alcohol bottles have a new design. The dispense caps I made available will not fit the new bottles

    any idea when this happened? I ask as a year back, I bought a 4-pack on end-of-winter sale....have not used/opened them to check if your cap will fit.

    I hate when they do things like that.

    That happened with the container used for the Starlyte burners. Had to search high and low for a new cap to fit them.

    I suspect your old inventory bottles will fit the dispense cap.

    This new bottle is made for capless gas tanks, so it says on the bottle.

    It did look like some child proof caps to me.

    It is a child proof cap.

    The caps on the HEET in red bottle have not changed yet. I suspect they will change once old inventory has been sold.

    I tried the Zelph cap on the 4 bottles of Yellow Heet I had. They fit, so "old" design. But I purchased those around 6 months back when Wally World wanted to reduce inventory last spring.
    Another reminder, the Zelph flip cap also fits the Lucas Fuel injector treatment bottles. Unfortunately, that bottle only hold 6 ounces, but that would work for a few days if you are only boiling water for dinner.
