Whats the deal with do-it yourself AC recharge Kits

[Anteloper]

Do these things work or do they do more harm then good.... What are the best ones to use and how much do they cost??? TIA!!!!

I have used them before and they worked like a charm. They are likely all produced by the same manufacturer and labelled for appropriate distributer. I can't remember what I paid for them though??

A GOOD IDEA IS TO>>>>> REPLACE ALL THE O RINGS! TO START!

I paid $40 for one, worked great, but it won't fix leaks. Good if you have a slow leak and want to put off fixing it.

Are the o-rings available at my local Ace Hardware or is this going to be one of those scavenger hunts? And how do I know which, what and where the o-rings are?

TIA!!
