But here is my question. Is there any significant damage done by leaving a
normal battery charger on overnight, where it might get to zero amps but

I understand this problem
what I did was to use a gas that I found out was a refrigerant it was of
all things computer key board cleaner... I have a side can tap so it worked
just like the r 12
I had a major leak and it was easy to find actually I needed to blow old
oil and debris out
you can do this use any dry gas I used the key board cleaner because it is
a refrigerant gas ( just not for mobile ..auto ... systems)
what you do is add 3 or 4 cans to the system and check for leaks
this is done first immediately by looking for the big obvious leaks than a
few weeks
