You have a third option which works best, the ultrasonic leak detector. The brand I use is accutrak. What makes this better then the other two? You don't have to have refrigerant in the system to find the leak. You can find the leak with little to no refrigerant or nitro in the system. It would behoove you to investigate and master this tool as it will save you tons of $$$$ and are extremely accurate.

Yep had mine for ten years.. extremely sensitive. Had a mini split leaking from a flare joint inside, and I initially started my leak search outside, and I was getting a hit outside just from the residual refrigerant traveling between the armaflex and line set.

Now I wish I wouldn’t have bought the D-Tek 3 although it’s a great leak detector. Only thing I don’t like about it is the power button. It can be a pain to turn on but I’ve found a lot of leaks with it. Probably would’ve bought the Fieldpiece infrared though because I love Fieldpiece products. I got the wireless probes, the new SC480 meter, and the 380v manifold and I love them all. I gotta quit spending so much money on tools it’s an addiction

I have a DR82 and the one gripe I have is the USB-C charge port is kinda janky. The connection is not very secure so it's very easy to accidentally become disconnected. This is frustrating when you're searching for a leak and you have plugged in at the same time.

If the infared is like previous models, the operation will be different than the heated diode. You must sweep with the infared as it will zero out if you hover over a leak.

I have yet to see any leak detector that doesn't lose its ability to detect leaks within 2 years including the infrared detectors no matter how well you try to take care of them. They all suck in this regard no matter what brand it is. You just need to buy a new one every couple of years.
