    Silly to throw away a $2000(replacement cost) ice-maker fridge if it has such as slow leak that you just top up with 10-20g of Jaycar air duster spray every 3 years.
    The bullet valve from Ebay I use is probably 8 years in use and no problems. So next top up would be next year, running perfectly ATM. Bit like servicing a car LOL. Always got it on the kWh meter and if I see the average going up I take a closer look and a good opportunity to remind me of cleaning out the dust build up in the condensor.
    When you have your stuff running in the night on off-grid battery you become a lot more aware of these things.

    ...and apparently you are allowed to spray air duster in the ...errr... air!
    Their freeze spray has the same R-134a but you have to hold it right side up. The accessible region of the pipe on the low pressure side is right down near the floor, so air duster a bit upside down works better for me.
