Take a look at the rotopax or koplin. Then you can still lay a tunnel bag over top of it if you wish. MS

I have had tour buddy, skidoo Jerry can, kolpin fuel pk Jr, and now trail tank.
Trail tank FTW!

Never tried the Mt addiction so can't comment.
I loved my linq setup. Over 10k km without an issue.
My buddy had the kolpins and they seemed to work pretty well but he had 2 which meant more things to manage. Also, he experienced some leakage with the caps. Finally, the environmental spout was a real pain when using.
I did a lot of research when deciding on the linq and it performed as expected through 10k plus km cruising, powder or bashing. I think the best solution is the trail tank but comparatively speaking, the price is outrageous especially with Canadian currency. I was also weary of all the early issues associated with the trail tank.
BTW, while I had no issues with the linq can, my turnout failed, twisted and did melt a bit of the can. I originally installed the turn out with one rivet that failed. I subsequently reinstalled with two, checked it regularly and caught it before it failed again. I used 4 rivets in the last and final install with no issues. I think with less rivets there is some movement resulting in eventual failure. The 4 rivet install (90* apart) is still nice and tight.
Good luck with whatever you choose.

Do you have any pics of how it looks on your sled? Also how you mounted it. Are you running an exhaust turnout?Never tried the Mt addiction so can't comment.
