Got one on clearance last year. I believe the "Can Insert" they are referring to is just a fake 2-part can used for display purposes.
I guess one could hide junk in it and then keep the fake yeti can in the colster but it's not exactly a feature, more like a difference in packaging. Can't open the fake can without opening the colster.
If you want to adapt to standard cans, you need to 3d print something or buy an ice pack adapter from brumate or fity-freeze.
I did that and learned that:
1 - a drink doesn't last long enough for this to actually matter (unless you were keeping it cool before opening/in transit)
2 - it's "heavy" and the brumate insert makes it heavier… it's weird experience because you can't tell if the can is full or empty and so the reflexive determination of how steep an angle to hold it at for a drink doesn't work … you end up doing a slow tilt up every time because it feels fuller than it is.
