Of course you can use this for it&#8217;s intended purpose of getting automotive radiator coolant into the tank or reservoir, but I got this to use with sports drink powders. Most kitchen funnels have really small openings, generally around 8 to 10mm. Dense powders like <em>Endurox R4<\/em> or <em>Cytomax<\/em> have difficulty getting through openings that small without tapping or shaking the funnel. I was looking for a jar funnel, but those are difficult to find, and the ones I have seen have openings that don&#8217;t fit in the neck of a standard sport bottle or liter-sized <em>Nalgene<\/em>. The 25mm+ opening on this funnel lets powders through unobstructed! Once you use it for coolant, don&#8217;t use it for anything else! Get two if you need one for coolant and another for sports drinks.<\/p>\n<p>Highly recommended<\/p>\n<p>Four out of four techno monkeys<\/p>\n<p>$1 USD plus tax!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I picked this up in the automotive section at Wal Mart for a buck &#8211; really, $1.00 USD!
