I gave up on all the safety can nozzle/spouts. The solution is a little battery powered transfer pump that is incorporated in a hand held wand.
No lifting, while trying to balance a can in the air into a funnel and trying to hold the safety device disengaged.
Spend $25 at amazon for this 2 D cell hand held pump be done the problem. It has auto shut off and hose with nozzle.
Oh and the seeet thing about this, you can fill your cars and trucks.
Agreed. So easy and quick
I recently bought one of these:

It’s still unused, but it looks pretty decent. One problem I have is I want to find a good way to keep the nozzle clear of junk when it’s not on the spout. I may try to make a cover/plug for both ends and a magnet to hold it to the can.
I have another one from Harbor Freight with the no-spill end and I don’t really like it. The only thing really going for it is the end gets flipped over to go inside so it can’t get gunked up by bugs or whatnot between uses.
Cookie tins, or those $5 metal popcorn tins. Check your local recycling dropoff (or the back of your garage/yard shed).
This is the wand battery pump that ends the gas can problem. I exhausted all my creativity trying to use/fabricate the perfect nozzle for the various jerrycans etc.
