I'd rather have a 30 lb. cylinder, but everyone is free to DIY as they wish.
Supertech is $9.98 per 12 oz. which is $0.83 per oz.
DuPont is $449.99 per 30 lb. (480 oz.) which is $0.94 per oz.
$0.83 versus $0.94 per oz.
I would not call that a massive ripoff.
There's actually another place I found online that is $275 per 30 lbs., but I have not verified if they are legit, although they appear to be.
R-134A 30 lb Chemours/DuPont Automotive Refrigerant MADE IN USA
We offer Freon R-134a as a non-ozone-depleting, low-toxicity, and nonflammable refrigerant, which makes it a safe choice for use in a variety of applications.royalrefrigerants.com
It is a massive ripoff when buying in bulk isn't cheaper. If I'd compared their 30# bottle to their 12oz bottles then yes, it weighs overwhelmingly in favor of their 30# bottle as they want 30 for 12oz. And working out of a can is not the same as from a 30# bottle. You can't use as nice of gauges and you can more accurately gauge how much freon has left the big tank by keeping an eye on its weight.
