Product review (5 stars): YES, you need this.
Made the jump from binge drinker to full-blown alcoholic! Converted mine to ball lock to keg homebrew, just takes barbed ball lock poppets (a gas in and a liquid out), ball lock kegs and some hose clamps and boom, 24 hour party time. If I feel lazy switch back to the sake taps the kegerator came with and buy a keg from the store. Mine had no problem keeping beer sub 38 degrees. CO2 regulator is terribly inaccurate but just get to know it and you will be fine wit carbonation. 2 beers on tap all the time? Game changer.
