Todd7446 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I have a lot of Dan's (Inline) stuff on my current press (Hornady LNL AP - I know, different forum). I just got a couple items from him that I'll be using on the press I plan to get soon. Yes, a blue one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warpdrv Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I got the skylight kit for both of my 650's..... I'm very happy with them, even though I have a good amount of light above and around my bench - these make all the difference in the world.... Can you do you own for cheaper - sure, but it seems like they really spent the time getting this laid out just right and installs very easy & quickly. I do like the ingenuity of members making their own stuff, look forward to the results... The Skylight is super bright and machined to fit perfectly with the right amount of cable to route, and the strip LED's are the perfect length and very bright as well. Tons of light flooded into the work place. I ended up routing the power for my casefeeder and the light kit up to the ceiling area so none of the electrical chords are laying about on the bench.... Super Happy with the investment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouSlide Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Ordered the Inline product and absolutely love it. Don't see how it could be better for the purpose. Great price as well…lots of value for the $$. It replaced a couple of battery gooseneck LED lights that could never get the light right where I needed it.

PopPop Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I've had the strip and skylight on my LNL for a year or so. Just got a 650 and added same to it. I thought the lighting at my bench was good but I wouldn't reload without the LEDs anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngeyes Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Dan made two 550 skylights for me with special wiring. They work great. With strip lights my presses are well lit. Thanks again Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snollygoster Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) I just put the light in my 550. Maybe I got a bad one, cuz I'm not impressed with the amount of, or lack of light I get. It's no where near as bright as the pic posted by beanie-bean. I was about to make the same comment until I saw this post. In my case, the amount of light provided is only useful if I was to reload with all other room lights off. Mine casts a weak blue-ish light and no, it's not just because the loader is blue. When mine breaks I will not replace it. But hey, glad to hear others are happy. Edited January 16, 2015 by Snollygoster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terlingueno Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) I have an Inline Skylight on my 550 and some bin barriers from Dan. Even though I have a lot of light in the room, not much is right down in the case. The Skyllight puts good light right down in there and I can see the powder level much better than I can without the Skylight. Good stuff.

cynjon Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Just ordered mine for my 550b...I think I'll attach the wire to one of the tool head locating pins so I can't forget to remove it before changing tool heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracker366 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I put one over the shell plate and made a bracket for the strip light to put over the bullet tray they work great. Here's one without the lighting and one with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkreutz Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) I like the lights a lot, I can't imagine trying to handload without them. I've also included pictures of my other two favorite modifications. 1). Spent primer catch bottle, makes cleanup foolproof. and 2). Unused primer catch bottle, this replaces the "ski jump" and it was very useful when developing loads, now that my favorite loads are set, I don't do much changing so the usefulness of this modification isn't what it was originally.

SilverBolt Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I thought about getting one but didn't really see the need. The lighting in my loading area is very good. Then I got one as a gift and tried it out. Simple to install and what a difference it made. I promptly ordered another one for my second 650.

Mikelindsey Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I just got one from inline today. I'm very impressed. Prior I was using their small flashlight and a battery gooseneck zip tied to the top of the press. No comparison. Should have bought the light a year ago when I got my 650.

Sarge Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Got mine today as well. I couldn't resist! It appears to be very high quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Well, the euphoria was short lived. I must already have a very well lit reloading room as I could barely notice a difference with the light kit on. I don't want to say I'm not impressed and bash the product by any means but it is nowhere near as bright as I had hoped. Now I'm stuck with it and will probably take a loss on it by selling it to somebody on the forums who doesn't already have the amount of light in their reloading room as I apparently do.

CSPCRX Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I need to try this i think, the llittle flashlight i got from uniquetek is just not cutting it. I also found it does not fit one of my tool heads. The hole is smaller. Hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
