Default 5 Lb CO2 Tank Pressure

What is the full reading of the tank if I keep it in the fridge?? Should it dip at all b/c it is cold vs if it is warm?? Mine read about 500 after I wasted a bunch of co2 b/c I had a leak. It was a big leak and I had to replace the MM reg. Over the past 2 days it has dipped below 500 to maybe 350-400 PSI.....am I running out?? Should I refill it if I am trying to have a party for labor day?? Or will it last much longer....I am on my 2nd and third sixtels....

Also, how quickly shopuld the beer equalize from an increase in pressure if I went from 8 PSI to 14 PSI??? How quickly will I notice a foam decrease??
