Anyone have one????
Looks good.
I've never tried an electric trickler.
Always used the Lee dipper to top off a load.
Don't do it much now that I'm using my old Lyman auto scale.
But it does look interesting.
Long ago, Midway had a cute electric trickler.
Powered by a battery.
I wish I had gotten one.
Been thinking about making one, but never got around to doing it.

I have an old Lyman electric trickler for many years, and I wouldn't live without an electric now. The cool thing versus the dipper method is you do not have to watch the trickler, just the scale, when it's spot on stop the trickler.

Hehe good one. I've wondered how accurate they really are. Some day I may have to find out when I try reloading the 17 hornet.

I didn't know Hornady made an electronic trickler. I suppose when you're not looking for something, you don't notice.

I've used an Omega trickler for probably 10 years and when and if it wears out, I'll get another electronic trickler. I won't be without one. They make that perfect charge so easy.

I've had a newer version of the Chargemaster for a few years and haven't pulled it out of the box. I've gotten so used to using a Redding benchrest measure to throw the intial charge and the trickler to get "there". Old school I guess.
