I've not Seen these before But Seem To Be Available From A Few Online Suppliers. If They Are Any Good They Would Have The Advantage For Me Of Holding 23 Litres And Cheaper Initial Set Up Costs Due To type Of Gas Used Over Cornelius Kegs, Also No Black Rubber To Mark Up The Floor Etc.

Anyone Tried Them Yet?, I Assume They Are New, Any Thoughts?

Essentially these are Chinese Cornelius keg knock offs just made bigger. I expect the kegs themselves are fine but at over £100 each very pricey especially considering you can get a reconditioned 19L corny for just over £50. Personally when I buy into cornys (soon hopefully!) I'll be getting the 19L ones and accepting the fact that I'll be putting ~4L of beer into bottles each time I keg a brew. Also not sure an S30 cylinder will last long for these sorts of kegs and would rule out forced carbonation. Much cheaper to get a pub cylinder in the long run.
