I built a portable kegerator for two 3 gallon kegs. It's identical to the one on the original post. I use the crap out of it when we go on camping trips with a large group, vacations (several through out the year) and going to parties like 4th of July, Halloween, Christmas...etc. I even use it for birthday parties.
As much as I love the thing, I find myself not using it when we go out to the river, lakes or even out fishing. The reason is the thing is just too big when only a few people are out and we're not heavily drinking. So I decided build a 2 gallon babyrator.
I lucked out and managed to score 3 of the 1 gallon Taylor flavor kegs off Ebay. I paid $50/ea shipped. But that's not bad considering a decent growler is easily $25 and these hold two. Plus I never see them for less than $100 if you can even find them.
Here it is:
It's a 28 quart. The 16 would've been great, but it was about half an inch too small in the width to fit the kegs. One fit fine. But I wanted two. Plus the CO2 would've never fit.

There's the 2 gallon in comparison with the 6 gal version. I know I gotta get that 6 gal one cleaned up.

I had to adjust the regulator to a flat position in order to get it to fit, but there is plenty of room for ice, snacks and some cups too.

I have different faucets installed. One is a ventmatic and the other is a perlick, so they look a little crooked, but they're not. I am going to swap the prelacy with my other ventmatic.

This gives perspective next to a 3 gal keg

We're headed out at the end of this week to Lake Chelan in Wa. We stay there from Sat to Sat with a bunch of people, so I always bring the 6 gallon kegerator with several filled 3 gal kegs. But I found it difficult to bring down to the lake with us, so I plan to bring the babyrator too just for that purpose. It also has the wheels and telescopic handle.
