Well it arrived and I tried to take out the plugs of an old regulator and they would not budge. One got stripped out in the process. I got one out, so I can use it for a friends kegerator. I had one on my 20# tank where the Hi End pressure gauge broke (let the tank fall over after a brew fest ), so I decided to use that one. The instructions are very straight forward on what to do, size of wrench and so on.
I removed the tank adapter and installed the Paintball tank fitting, then I removed the broken gauge and the low side gauge and installed the new ones that came with the kit, so that both are not oriented to read when you screw a paintball tank into it.
I picked up a 12 oz. tank at Academy for $18 and had it filled for a couple. All you do is screw the tank into the adapter when you are ready to use it and you hear a quick psfft and it is charged.
I'm impressed with how easy it was to convert it and it's portability. This is not a kludge conversion and it does not leak. The parts came pre-taped and ready to install. Total time spend converting once I found my tool kit was about 7 minutes.
I'll be measuring how many kegs a 12 oz. tank will push, but I now know I can always get a tank at Lowe's on Sunday 4 minutes away.
So far I'm a happy camper with it.
