mcracco Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 (edited) Forgive me if this has been posted before but quick search and I didn't see it. I was stumbling around looking for a 1050 something or other and I came across Reloading Innovations who has a very nice LED lighting system for the toolhead of a 1050. It is a very nicely designed PCB with 8 white LED's that clips to the underside of the toolhead. Power connector is rear facing and power supply and switch are included. $50. I couldn't order one fast enough. Installation was simple enough though I wish the power supply cable was longer. I haven't loaded with it yet but boy, this floods the work area like all get out. I have a gooseneck LED light mounted on the left side on bullet tray bracket and that thing is now retired. BTW, just noticed web site lists a 5 ft power cord extension.

Want2BS8ed Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Awesome product. I've already replaced or added them to every 1050 head I own. Like the fact I was able to buy multi-packs without the power supplies. Smart. Customer service is outstanding as well.Purchased one of their low profile bearing kits. Before I could install it, received an email there were some issues with the material used for a 3D printed part and they would be sending replacements. Sure enough 2 days later I received an envelope with the new pieces.That is how you create customer loyalty and boy-howdy you better believe I'll be back as often as I can.MSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camaross400 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I have the same light on my 1050. It is a great light. However, I had to add an additional light to see into my 223 cases because I have the Mr. Bulletfeeder.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD1 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I too, added the light some weeks ago and have been totally happy with the gear and the way above normal customer service with all their products including the spill stops. I now trim or load 223 at max speed on my 1050 Mark 7 Pro wonderfully. Really makes reloading smooth. P.S.- I also use the zip tie mods from powder drop to bullet drop to bullet seat stations.

wchangose Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I've never seen the rubber band on the Mr Bullet Feeder die, does that make the bullets feed more consistently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a spring kit that takes care of a couple of issues. And a few other things that will help your reloading too. RE the zip tie trick, that sorta works, but adding their Spill Stop did more to prevent bullet tip than the zip ties have. Also, on the light, I had to secure the power plug with a couple of zip ties to keep it from being worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually surprised Double Alpha hasn't come out with a permanent fix. It makes an appreciable difference especially when loading something like a 147 grain 9MM truncated cone that's prone to double feeding in the MBF.MSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
