I have two of the 1/2 size pressure barrels with 2" caps that I have fitted with Corny gas posts.
Much to my delight they fitted into a small countertop beer fridge a happy day considering it's starting to get warm out and they're in the garage.
I filled them and carbonated to 10psi with is within their pressure limit and tried to put one in the fridge Agggg..... it had expanded!!!
The gas post was hitting the top of the fridge I need to put the post on some sort of tee or elbow to reduce it's height by about half which should give me a safe clearance.
The post is like the one in the ebay link, I think I need a 1/8 bsp elbow and fitting or hose to connect it to the post, if you have done this successfully please post up the details.

Elbow is a great idea (or a bigger fridge).
