Well, any micron gauge is better than no micron gauge.
But I would've spent the extra money on the accutools bluvac. It's an amazing piece of equipment. Just my opinion.

As far as I know the two best gauges available are the yellow jacket and bluevac.
I use the yellow jacket and love it despite the price tag...You cannot cheat an honest man. But that doesn't stop people trying!

I've been using the bluvac for the last 2 months. Very accurate compared to some of the other micron gauges. Especially the leak rate indicator. Money well spent.

4 others i had been using also take a look at the accu tool scale.

Just picked up the jb super nova, tho if the blue vac was available I would have liked to have that one. I like the leak rate indicator feature.

I used the bluvac for a bit but got rid of it. It irked me. i then bought a yj 69075 & i like it. Previous to that i used the supco & I'm wondering how inaccurate it's been previous to switching . . . These are hooked to the same system sitting off after 20 min

My neck hurts from trying to look at your pic.
You need to put the phone down and get back to work!

I don't trust the Super Nova that we have in the shop. I use a JB DVN 22. I'd rather my micron gauge error high, if it's going to error. Bluevac sounds tempting, but have have to buy most of the tools I need before i start replacing ones that still work.

I used a supco for the past 9 months but just bought the bluevac with the rapid evac kit and I am loving it.When using the supco after I valved it off the reading would drop instead of rise!!!
