Looking for input as to which kegs are best to use. Pros cons??
Thanks

Ball locks are shorter by a small amount. Personally, I like the pin locks, but my supplier started only carrying ball locks, so that is what I have. Either are fine. I just like the twist action to secure the pin locks. The ball locks are ocassionally a bit harder to put on. (Like when you put them on the wrong side...)
I think you have that backwards. Ball locks are taller and skinnier than pin locks; 8.5"x25" for ball lock vs 9"x23" for pin lock.
I use ball locks because I can fit four of them in my keezer, where I'd only be able to fit 3 pin locks. My friend on the other hand has a mini-fridge kegerator that will only fit pin locks because of the short interior. Some people prefer the pin lock disconnects because you can't accidentally put them on the wrong post. The posts are interchangeable if you want one size but the other fittings.
