Ah yes, inquiring minds want to know....

What appeals to me most about these units is they are properly portable ie camping portable, and that you can shrink down kegerator builds.

As well as giving more flexibility in the kegerator they might also be great for aging beers, emptying into from half used kegs, or allowing you to keg in a bigger keg then using a Pegus tap to bottle when convenient and then transferring into to free up the bigger keg for a new batch.

haha i haven't got the capital or desire to do that Pinto, though it might be worth it for a professional vendor as i reckon demand' be there for these and you'd get a good rate for a large order.
if anyone wants specifics then feel free to pm me, but they came from Best Friends, a commercial supplier (to a lot of big brewing companies) i found based in China. as i was only ordering a 'sample' amount i didn't experience the full economy rate, but all costs considered they still shaved a few quid off the 9L cornies. and will allow me to use them as minicasks for low pressure dispense.
they will be perfect for camping (trial run soon!) and a good size for taking round a mate's for the night and chucking in their fridge (or sink!). thinking of adapting one of those 16oz bulb regulators for my couplers to make it even more convenient

Funnily enough I have been in contact with them this morning.
