I generally write (with a felt pen) how many days are left and then save
them for the next appropriate length trip.  You can also weigh the used
canisters and compare the weight to a full/empty canister to determine what
percentage is left. I usually don't go to that extent.  When they are
near empty (at 10 days I call them empty) I use the CrunchIt tool to put a
hole in the canister and put them in recycling.  I s'pose on a through hike
recycling may be difficult if not impossible, but I think the same will
apply to the HEET bottles?

Anyway, I almost never have a second canister with me.

<<  Question about canisters.  I get that they last a while.  But at the end
of a hike, assuming that the canister has some fuel left, would you on your
next hike carry the partial canister as well as a full canister.  Assuming
that's the case, your hikes will always be with one empty or nearly so
canister and one full or nearly so canister.  Do you see it that way, and
how does that change the analysis? >>
