I had the autotrickler v1 (when he was using a modified RCBS trickler!) and now the V4. I've had a few minor issues along the way but Adam has always been very helpful. Also had one of the very early shot marker systems and along with customer service, one thing that stands out with Adams products is that the apps and firmware are very thought out and future proof.My thanks to all of you guys. Your assistance here in the thread and in DMs helped me make a choice on Supertrickler vs. Autotrickler. There are tradeoffs of course, but I think the Autotrickler will meet my needs without going aboveboard. And then, the CE Products black friday $985 package is back up.
To my thinking, the main difficulty with Autotrickler is that it's tied to a smartphone app. Adam will have to keep the app current. If he doesn't, then I'll have an expensive paperweight. At least the balance is stand-alone. A reasonable risk. Supertrickler is pretty cool. I like the "levers/buttons/knobs" which are ripe for fiddling. As an engineer, I can't help myself. But for me, that may be its downfall. Too many fiddly bits for my needs. It's probably overkill. The final blow is emptying and clearing out Supertrickler. F-Class John's video showed what that was about. Autotrickler by comparison is easy-peasy.
All in all, Autotrickler is a significant step up from my existing setup of powder thrower, Creedmoor scale and Dandy Trickler. It works but it's awkward and slow. I also dallied with an RCBS Chargemaster Lite. A piece of junk, it overcharges and then lies about it. Says it hits the mark but when checked it can go over by a significant amount.
At any rate, my search is over. I know . . . . Over for now, until the next shiny thing pops up. Ingenuity Precision may be next up. It probably sounds like I'm planning obsolescence.
The V4 dispenses fairly well but nowhere near as consistent as a friend's ingenuity.
