ElitechHVAC Refrigerant Leak Detector 10 Yrs Infrared Sensor Life, Halogen Freon Sniffer, Air Conditioning Detection, Automotive Gas Finder, ILD-200

Not a tool I use often but it comes in handy when I need it. I like the Elitech brand as I have multiple HVAC tools from them and this is another on in the arsenal. Seems to be pretty accurate for automotive applications. Has a low, med and high sensitivity which is good. The noise it makes when it detects a leak is audible and you will know. Works as it’s designed to work and I think it’s a good value. Just doesn’t work all the time. But it’s a tool you use along with other diagnostic methods. I.e UV light & dye, soap and water, or just simply charging the system and using the leak detector to pin point an area to use all those methods in unison.

I have read other product reviews and found this has an exceptional product life (10 Yrs), and it works very well. Highly recommend.

Way better than my other current meter at picking up smaller leaks, at least for R410. And easy to use. And claims a 10 year life. Not tested that yet, but that would be great. Was an issue with my last sniffer that did not last more than a year or so it seemed.

Saved me thousands of $ :-)We had a tricky leak and the plumber wanted a leak detection company to find the leak … it would have been from $2500 and up. I found the leak with this gadget and replaced the pipe myself.

The media could not be loaded. Bought this cause it was my last resort on finding a leak ive had for a while. I dont like the dye and glasses and all of that junk because if its leaking bad enough it will get into the fan and spread all over the engine block specially around the compressor. So after reading reviews and talking to some ac folks they recommended this detector. In the video above you will immediately found my leak on the compressor seal and also some small leaks on the fittings. Awesome product for the money. Would recommend has a nice case with it as well to protect. I would recommend to put this product in your home in the closet or somewhere safe to keep out of humidity and moisture don't just store this in the tool box and also remove the batteries as well so it doesn't mess up the connections from leaking acid. Awesome product. 5 stars

This refrigerant leak detector really works. I never trusted cordless detectors, but this one actually worked. First job that I used it, found a small leak on a weld joint. After that I was confident that with this tool I would be able to locate refrigerant leaks.

The media could not be loaded. Works great used it today for the first time to find a leak in a condenser and found it really quick.

Found leak on 410a easily.
