    I don't know of the specific jerry cans you're speaking of, but look for a youtube video on the differences between cheap jerry cans and expensive jerry cans. There is a huge difference between the chinesium stuff and the premium stuff for sure even though they look really similar.

    I think premium ones have nicer welds and the interior of the can has a coating to prevent rust. There are probably more information found on YouTube like previous poster mentioned.

    I think you’ll find your answer just by reading the description of each.

    The premium is lined internally to prevent corrosion the other is not

    Premium can has:

    better paint
    fully welded handle
    thicker metal
    internal paint
    stouter locking pin

    I use the regular cans because they are about a pound lighter and I just store fuel and don't really care about the paint.
