I think 20lb is quite practical since it's the same size as a corny. Also, it's about the most I'd care to carry when full. Usually fills are cheaper as you go up in size but my local place just charges $1/lb. If you really think you'll be portable, a 5lb is more practical but you'd either need a convenient local exchange place or a backup tank.
Can you post their address? It cost me $20.00 to fill a 5 lb cylinder.

I have a 50 lb tank. Well, I rent it. It costs me $70 a year for the rental and fills are extra. I haven't had to fill it in over two years. Definitely not too big.
20 or 50 years?? Do they collect the tank from the deceased's estate? Who signs a lease for 50 years? I didn't have to sign any term. When I'm finished with the tank and return it, they just prorate the bill for whatever portion of the year I used.
Thanks Bobby,
I'll check them out next time I'm in the area and need a refill.

Honestly. I have never understood why people store their CO2 cylinder inside their kegerator where space is a premium. Tubing is cheap. Put the cylinder somewhere convenient and out of the way.
+1, get them out. And no, a 20lb tank isn't over doing it IMHO.
Where did you get those fittings for the sidewall of the fridge?
Where did you get those fittings for the sidewall of the fridge? Thats great! I was thinking of just drilling in the side and using a tight fitting gromet, but this looks way better.
if your not worried about getting all of 5# in it, make a coupler and invert the 20#. i use my 5# only for mobility because of the high fill price.
