“ | An old metal jerry can containing fuel for oil lamps. In-game description
|
” |
Overview[]
A Jerry Can is a large container that can hold up to 4 liters (1.05 Gallons) of Lantern Fuel.
Unlike cans of Lantern Fuel, Jerry Cans are not spontaneously generated. They can only be found in the world, and a Jerry Can disappears after its contents have been used up.
Jerry Cans are noticeably more weight to fuel efficient per kilogram than Lantern Fuel, weighing only 0.40 kg per 0.50 liters collected, while Lantern Fuel weighs 0.50 kg per 0.50 Liters collected.
It is not possible to repair the condition of a Jerry Can.
Refilling[]
A Jerry Can in the player's inventory will collect any Lantern Fuel created from cooking fish (if the can is not full), preventing the spontaneous generation of a bottle of Lantern Fuel. It will also collect kerosene from harvesting a Storm Lantern.
Refueling a lantern with both a Jerry Can and Lantern Fuel in the player's inventory will use the Jerry Can first. Therefore it is best to drop the Jerry Can before refueling so the Lantern Fuel is used first.
Trivia[]
When trading with Sutherland the Trader Jerry Cans are not returned if traded for Lamp Oil.
