    Dillon 550 press lighting

    Hey guys I seen a photo somewhere of a Dillon 550 or 750 with a small led light mounted on the press. I'd like to get something like it to put on my 550 and 450 but haven't found anything yet. I don't even remember where I seen the photo now. My eyes and mind both are going.

    I use the Inline Fab SkyLight and it's bright enough to check powder charges in small cases. You can move it between presses, too.

    I use one that looks like the INLINE model but it has no markings on it anywhere. It mounts in the tool heads center hole and lights the shell plate well.

    Inline is a banner sponsor so you only have to click in their ad at the top of the page. (Shameless promotion of a proud Cast Boolits supporters.)

    I bought 4 stick on led's and the transformer from Oznium long before Inline and others offered specific kits for Dillon. I think this is much cheaper and works great. PM me and I can text pictures to you. Here is their link https://www.oznium.com/car-motorcycl...ed-light-bulbs

    And just fyi for everyone I use this 10 watt from Oznium mounted on the post for the brass case feeder on the Dillon 1050. $24.95 plus one 12 volt ac adapter which can run all your loading machines as long as you don't plug in more than about 3 at a time. Link

    I used some T10 led light bulbs and sockets I got from Amazon. I cut the end off some old 12v DC power adapters I had laying around from old electronics. I was able to make 6 of them for less than $15.
