Can be very sensitive with certain powders. Constantly adjusting it. Hoping DAA will allow me to return it, as it didn't work for me.
DAA has a lot of great ideas, and I've purchased many of them over the years.

I originally purchased a Dillion powder check for my 9mm 1050 toolhead;

I replaced it with the DAA Magnetic Powder Check and bought additional powder checks for my 45 ACP and 5.56 toolheads. The DAA Powder Check is a superior design because the height is adjusted based upon the height of the magnet. It is easier to install and doesn't get out of adjustment like the Dillon powder check.
Stop if you are going to get a powder check and you are considering the Dillon. I had to continue to check the powder level visually when using the Dillon to avoid squibs. Why bother getting a powder check if you still need to check the powder visually to eliminate squibs?

This powder checker is fabulous! I never really had confidence in the other powder checkers I had this one has the alarm, LED light signal and is super sensitive and easy to set. It is totally changed my reloading game!

Works great if Im using a specific brand of brass. Dial it in for Winchester brass, and it chugs right along with no problem. If you collect range brass as I do, you cant run hodge-podge brass through it. Differences in head space from brand to brand will set off the alarm.

Works great but I can’t use it because the two in one die did not work for me ?

This is much better than original unit. More accurate, and I have confidence in it. I taped on a visual indicator (paper arrow) so that if I hit a limit slightly, I can tell if it is high or low limit. Made initial adjustment and haven't had to reset yet.
