Mist From AC Registers. Solution?

AC was low on freon. Seems to be working OK since I did a quick recharge.


Noticed a mist coming from the AC registers this afternoon. No smells, air is nice and cold and it went away then came back then went away again. We only went to get gas for the lawn equipment so it was not a very long drive. (About 12 miles total.)
Interested in suggestions as to what may be causing it.
Tried the SEARCH first but nothing seemed to match it.

Sounds like condensation mist. Not terribly unusual as the compressor cycles if you are in humid weather.

Hopefully it's not a pinhole leak in the evaporator.

We had a little humidity and I did think it may be related to that.
If it is a leak I'll soon find out when the AC warms up.
At 13 years old you got to figure there will be some system failures.
