Sure, use some tubing and clamps to bridge a ball lock connector's hose barb to a tire valve stem. Charge the keg with the Princess Auto device like it's a tire.

It's English Rob. I thought Sandy's wondering if you have done anything like this before and if you had any comments like ...

You can do it but ...you could blow yourself up, etc.

That might be too much pressure for tubing and hose clamps. There's no regulator.

I've looked at these but at $3 per cartridge it can become rather expensive considering 3 cartridges to empty a keg.
