Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Bottle Tops are meant to fit can tops that are about 2-1/8 inches in diameter, which is the standard size in most but NOT all places (Coke cans in Hawaii are about 1/4 inch bigger, about 2-5/16 inches across and will NOT fit). Other brands (like SnapCaps) seem to be the same size as Bottle Tops.
I bought these because I like to drink Coke from cans a little at a time. These help to keep the Coke from going flat as quickly once the can is open, but won't keep it as fizzy as it was when you first opened the can (you'd need a pressurized top for that). Also, if the can is almost empty, even with the Bottle Top on, your soda will probably go flat as quickly as it would if it weren't covered.
These tops are also useful for keeping yellow jackets out (which matters for regular soda--yellow jackets usually don't bother diet sodas) and for making sure that the contents don't spill when the can falls over.
Drinking from these is a little weird (it adds a glug-glug sensation that you don't get from drinking directly from the can)--but you get used to it.
These snap on easily, but can be a little tricky until you get the hang of it. Open the can FIRST. With the cap on the Bottle Top closed, position the top over the can at a slight angle and push down. The top should snap on, but if not you might have to move it around slightly to find the sweet spot. Also I think some tops might fit easier than others, so if you are having trouble--switch to a different top. It takes a bit of force--if you aren't careful you can knock the can over--so for your first try you might want to do it in a sink. Having the cap closed helps as it reduces the chances that you might crush the can while trying to push down on the top.
Again: open the can BEFORE snapping on the Bottle Top. The tops go on securely and are almost impossible to remove from an unopened can. (If you forget you can use a stick to punch in the top of the soda can.) To remove the Bottle Top, close the cap and squeeze the can. The air pressure is enough to send the top shooting several feet. (To avoid this I hold the top in one hand with a slight prying motion while I squeeze the can with the other. In addition to the air pressure, the way the can gets crushed when you squeeze it often makes the top come off.)
If you are in Puget Sound, you can find these in several stores. Fry's, RiteAid, and Bartell's carry these (in packs that have around 12 caps) for $9.99. (I saw some at Target the other day that were on sale for half price).
