"The answer to your question is in the description..."

Oh, thanks, John. Somehow I missed that. I didn't realize you could get liquid (as opposed to compressed-gas) CO2 that easily.

this sounds great! I wanted to install a large co2 tank for a soda stream, and now this is more of a reason to go for it!!

Powertank is the big name in CO2 and you pay a big premium.
10-LB Powertank CO2 kit. $620
PowerTank Package B Portable CO2 Air System & Tire Inflator 10 lb Bottle...

10-LB CO2 tank kit from Poly Performance CO2 kit. $245

Both kits do exactly the same thing, our Poly Performance kit is 16 years old and is used regularly, primarily for the Jeep. It's still in good shape.
The tank is refilled at a local tavern and home brewing supply store.

Andy,

This page has a map showing locations where one could presumably get a Powertank refilled, but I think there are many more.

Power Tank Online Store and Blog

I've used both industrial gas suppliers and fire extinguisher suppliers. Some of these normally operate on an exchange basis, your empty tank for theirs filled. I've never done that, always asking for my tank back, which can add some time or complexity to the transaction. But I've always found that with some explanation and patience I could get my tank filled.

I recently bought one of their small 20 oz systems for use in our cars, mostly when traveling for airing up and the possible emergency. I've gotten that filled at a paint ball store.
