Thinking about Perlick 650SS faucets for my very first ever keezer build. I have some questions:
How do you like it? Is the flow control worthwhile, or just a gimmick?
Is it true that if you turn the adjustment valve all the way to "off" that it stops all flow...even if the faucet is turned on by the handle?
(I ask the above because there does not currently seem to be any off-the-shelf solution for locking these faucets. I wonder if there's a way to do that using the adjustment lever and a removable zip-tie or something...my dog will empty my taps if I don't find a way to lock them!)
So, has anyone found way to lock these?
Anyone used the GT600 growler filler (or another alternative?) with them? How well does that work?:

Now for some dimensional questions:
What is the distance from the face of the keezer/kegerator to the (center of the) nozzle? Want to make sure my drip tray is wide enough.
(Maybe Perlick 630SS is the same size? If so, owners of that might give a measurement, too)
(Also, what is the typical diameter of the flange on a shank?)
