@letsbetechs: When I actually find a leak in the schrader, I take pictures and video of it because who is gonna believe it? It gets abused by technicians who are in a hurry and don't want to look for leaks, and we all know it. I search the system over for a leak using both my whisper and my Stratus and only able to get hits in one location. I use a Schrader tool, and show how it's used to replace the valve core while the system is under pressure. Then we verify there is no more leak there through the same method of locating the leak. #hvac #hvacapprentice #hvactechnician #hvaclife #onthisday
Last time I had a Schrader leak my manager asked for proof. I sent a yellow frost ball.

Very nice tool. Looks it would work with racing tires that are filled with nitrogen and need to change Schrader valve and save most of the nitrogen.

in my experience the Schrader leaks all the time, if there are no bubbles with the cap on its fine, I do wish my leak detector was as responsive as yours even when I change the filters it take a while to register a leak when its directly on something I know is leaking

I’ve always had issues with the plastic caps because of temperature cold hot doesn’t matter it causes swelling and contraction even with a no ring I’ve never trusted the plastic caps to maintain their shape
