Review on ๐Ÿš— Aupoko Car AC Refrigerant Charge Hose with Gauge and R134A Can Tap Valve: Complete Recharge Kit with Low Pressure Gauge and 59'' Recharge Hose by Reginald Sealy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use but the meter is really flimsy and cheap and doesn't seem to work (seems to get stuck)

The length is great. Many are very short and depending on where the AC charging port is located, they can be difficult to reach. But. When I took it out of the box the gauge read almost 10psi while disconnected. In addition, the transparent plastic dial kept falling off. I would snap it back up just to have it bounce right back up. I tried to find a way to reset the display to 0 but couldn't find anything in the instructions. After hooking up to the van, I poured in 1.5 cans of refrigerant before realizing the gauge wasn't working properly. I have no idea what the actual line pressure is now because the gauge is now stuck at around 50 (see picture). Buy something with a more reliable gauge, not this thing. It might be even better to buy something locally so you can pick it up if it doesn't work properly.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
