I ran across this Skylight light made by Inline Fabrication for a Dillon 550 and thought it looked useful. It is a small LED light that is made to fit in the center hole of your Dillon toolhead and shine nice bright white light down onto the stations. I was interested in this because you can't have TOO much light in your reloading room, especially when visually checking powder levels before seating bullets.
So I placed the order. The product arrived within a week.
There was not much in the box, as this is a very simple light. There are two cords. One of the cords has the plug and the power switch. This cord plugs into the second which actually has the light.
Pretty simple stuff. Two steps:
1. Plug in cords
2. Install light in center hole of die plate
Here is my view WITHOUT the light (no camera flash)-
Here is my view with the new light turned on (again, no camera flash)-
As you probably noticed, my whole reloading area is VERY well lit normally. It's not like I absolutely needed this extra light, but you can see that it does put the light right where you want it.
I recommend this to anyone who reloads on a Dillon that would like to have a little more light right where it counts... especially if your whole area is not well lit. And at $34 it wont break the bank.
