Now, while I don't actually homebrew myself the only questions and answers related to this topic came from you fine folks here at /r/Homebrewing so hopefully this is an OK question to ask!

We have a kegerator which we keep stocked with beer from the local craft brewery my wife bartends at. Typically we get standard half barrel kegs and that was the case last night. Picked it up, threw it in the trunk of our sedan and drove home - with it rolling around a little bit.

Got home, manhandled it down the stairs with a fair bit of jostling and slid it over to the kegerator. Tossed it in, hooked it up, but then headed upstairs for the night.

First time back down at lunchtime today I smell a beer-y smell and see that there was a leak - I'd say maybe a liter or two on the top of the small kegerator and out onto the ground next to it.

Nothing pooled inside, kind of looked like it maybe came out of the tap so I tested it and confirmed it was pouring and shutting off.

Now, my only thought is that due to us giving the beer the ol washing machine cycle, when we connected and immediately walked upstairs it overpressured and pushed past the tap causing the leak. Is this something that can happen? Assuming so, the fix would be to just not immediately tap the keg and let it settle before putting it on after a rough homeward bound journey?

Any and all insight is appreciated, thanks!

Crazy question but was wondering whether I could buy a lr/performance 48amp on board charger and swap out the 32amp limited one or if it's somehow software locked. Have heard of rwd owners randomly being able to charge at 48amps so half assume it has been done accidentally or intentionally before
