I bought a mykegonlegs 6.8kg for $299 from my local HBS

Pricey but I'll make up the hire cost of $120 per year from BOC in under 3 years

Kegonlegs sounds good.
Is the fire extinguisher option any good?

I went to Brewcraft for the mykegonlegs swap & go. Got fed up trying to get a CO2 supplier to give me some details on renting
Pubs serve beer in schooners because the heat warms the beer. Cant we have the beer in pints and drink faster?

Long time lurker, just to add my two cents worth. I use Supagas their rental is cheeper than BOC and they will deliver the replacement bottle to me. I have a probelm with Kegs on Legs in that you buy a new bottle and when it is swapped, are you sure that you that you are not going to get a dinged up old bottle in return?

My gas is from BOC, only place I could find here in SA.
I don't know how they compete for price, but the bottles are all top notch.

The local HBS does CO2...but I use Tony from Pub Gas in Canberra - $50 deposit, $50 for a fill and he delivers to my door.
