[QUOTE="EnglishAdam, post: 5544458, member: 32290"] Chill out. Nothing is going to explode unless your storage cans start to vent gas fumes into the atmosphere and THEN you have a source of ignition. Don't get confused between the flash point and the auto ignition point. The flash point is the temp where the gas will give of fumes (evaporate) and that may form a combustible mixture. This is -45 degF. The auto ignition point of gas is +475 degF so you shed would need to be getting pretty toasty to ignite the fumes in there. If it really still concerns you, consider keeping the storage cans in an insulated case (like a big cool box) or at least out of direct sunlight. [/QUOTE]
