I like that the liter capacity bottle has a translucent vertical strip marked in 100ml increments so you can see how much alcohol you pour and how much remains. The 300ml and 500ml olive bottles I have don’t have this feature.
The liter bottle has a slightly larger diameter (by about 8mm) than a standard 1 liter water bottle and it fits the regular size water bottle cages on my bicycle. The 300ml and 500ml bottles diameters are about 64mm and too small to fit snug in a water bottle cage. I add a thin foam can coozie to these bottles and then they fit perfect.
The plastic is a thick HDPE that you can’t squeeze/crush with your hand. I haven’t had any leak issues, and generally keep the bottle upright when traveling. Valve is reliable and easy to use. After pouring and then closing the valve, there is usually a drop of alcohol remaining in the pour tube. A quick shake before stowing dislodges the drop. The valve has never leaked on any of my bottles. Also I have never broken a valve cap, but it’s nice to know Trangia sells them separately if a replacement is needed.

These fuel bottles are superb.
They are robust, can store several different types of liquid fuel and the valve type filler/pouring mechanism takes the grind out of filling burners.
My only gripe is that the height difference between the .5l and the .3l is negligible. Many titanium pots these days are only about 10cms tall so whilst the diameter of the fuel bottles is spot on, the height is way over. How about a 10cms tall bottle with the valve at the top buton the side Trangia?
