I'll take 4. Put it on my Saaz, McMaster, less Belma tab.
The Belma was $7.80, I'll trust you to tell me how much I owe you.

Let me know if they work out well for you (how truly "universal" they are). If it saves me the hassle in the future from having to count the number of Firestone, Cornelius, et al makes and models of kegs I have acquired, buying poppets for each specific brand, then it will be worth the added cost. Don't need any now, but I surely will in the future.

It's a $1.50. Buy one and give it a try. You pay 5x that much on a 6-pack of beer you've never had before.

I could do that, Rob, but considering I'm already flush with brand-specific poppets, and all of my kegs have freshly replaced brand-name ones, it's unlikely I'll to need to swap one out anytime soon. :) I am merely curious, and was hoping someone might throw me a bone... someone who might be needing to replace poppets long before I will.

Besides, then I can use that poppet money to try beer I've never had before. :)

I've used these and in some cases they can be too long and will not permit the QD to push on far enough to lock. However, they can be modified easily by clipping off the bottom (one coil should do it) of the spring. They work fine then.
