I think that's carbon monoxide (one of the outputs of the exhaust). I've not heard of "not smelling fuel". It's a pretty obvious smell. I could be wrong as I'm not a chemist but if it's good enough for guys who have done 400,000 miles of global expedition travel, it's good enough for me.

I would only consider doing this with the wavian cans, but would absolutely 100% never do it with Rotopax. I just think there a absolute fail of a design that happens to have good marketing.

Oh thats right, its the carbon monoxide. Hmm then I guess I will look into the Wavians.

But having the jerry cans inside the cabin is still an idea I am prolly gonna need to reach a certain level of comfort before I could commit :)

Yeah it took me a while too but I did it on my 2000 mile trip and had no issues. It’s my go to plan at this point. Your mileage may vary.
