XtremepowerUS 3.5CFM 1/4HP HVAC Vacuum Pump R134a R12 R22 R410a A/C Refrigeration Set AC Manifold Gauge R134 Can Tap Carrying Tote

There's nothing wrong with the kit it works great, BUT you will need this adapter in order to get the R134A into any car, the fitting can't be put directly into the can tap. Even if it fits, you won't be able to get any refrigerant into the car without this adapter. You can find this adapter at autozone for just $3

This thing works great! I picked it up to install a new mini split unit, got this unit and some adapters. It runs flawless and comes with everything you need. I highly recommend.

The kit seems well made from the pump to the gauges and connectors. My problem is not with the kit but the inability of a DIY type person like me to obtain R134a refrigerant. I can't find R134a in any store here in the Northwest. Seems you now have to have a "certificate of training" in refrigeration to purchase R134a. So, in summary, a very nice kit for a small shop with certified staff and those who have access to R134a. Check local laws before purchase.

Working great, no problems or complaints.

Includes everything you need to do a proper recharge job on your vehicle AC, except the freon ofcourse.

Works as expected. Would recommend.

Great value. Worked flawlessly for mini split install.

Kit came with everything you need to vacuum/ leak test a new mini-split AC system, except....the included adapters with the kit are not compatible with the 1/4" - 5/16" fitting between the manifold and the service port on most residential mini-split systems. If I had read down further in the comments, I would have seen a couple of posts that call this out. The service port is pretty much standard, and for this kit, which advertises itself as being applicable for mini-split installations, I felt this was an annoying oversight and caused a delay of several days. The adapter is readily available on Amazon for under $10.00, and it really should have been called out in the description or simply included. That omission, along with poorly written, essentially useless, instructions, is why I have pulled one star for the rating. Fortunately, the AC manufacturer's instructions were directly applicable to most any pump/ manifold kit, so the pump kit worked exactly as described and expected. It would have been nice to have a little better resolution on the negative pressure side of the gauge but it works as intended. I have at least two more systems to install, so this was part of the learning curve, I guess. Probably a $2.00 part, included in the kit, would have made the process smoother. BTW, they do include a 1/4-5/16 adapter however, it is the wrong thread - one is coarse vs the other fine thread, and trying to force the wrong one on would likely destroy the service port threads! Again, it does the job.
