Default OT - What Is A Good Rule Of Thumb For Charging R22 In My Central A/C?

I have a small leak in my evaporator.


Block off the fan discharge of the condensing unit until the liquid line
temperature runs at 100F to 110F. Then shoot for 10-15 degrees subcooling.
It will be reasonably close. Far better than ambient plus 30 degrees or any
other rule of thumb!
