Trying to gas up a little beverage cooler that ran on 134a. Vacuumed, weighed in 9 ounces (factory 10 oz x .9) of Hot Shot. Go some cooling, hot discharge. What kind of suction pressure would i be looking for on this thing trying to keep it 40ish inside?

OK, I'll eat a pizza and see if I get a response1

With 134, I would expect approx 15.

Never used hotshot, so...

thanks guys. It's a hair under 15 psi and cooling down fast. So hopefully I got it close. Of course it may have a slight leak so may not last but they will watch.
