I love my RCBS Chargemaster Lite and it was only $200. It works well with all types of powder. Just set it and every time you set the pan on it it throws a perfect charge. Such a time saver and very accurate.
Best auto powder trickler?

Dont have experience with the others you mentioned but I have had the Chargemaster Lite for over a year and it has been awesome. I plan to get a second in the near future.
I use the Chargemaster with a second digital RCBS scale to verify the load. it has been working very well for me.

Chargemaster Lite makes things run a lot faster and smoother. I check every 10th load on the 1010 beam scale and have noticed no more than the occasional 1/10 grain variance. You can remove a few grains, trickle a few, or just rethrow the load.

I've watched the videos on YouTube of the intelidropper and they all like it when they get one for free. Read the reviews from the guys that bought them. Some guys are on their 3rd one to get one that even turns on with the on button. I'm staying far from this one. The v3 is the only one I would get and yes they are pricey but you get the most accurate scale you can get that doesn't drift. And they are faster than I can do buy hand. With Lee Dipper spoons I'm pretty dang fast after 30 yrs.

Who name names? I have yet not to have work and function as it was designed to.
I'v watched all kinds of trash on youtube, don't believe what you see, some have agendas or don't even know the function of the reloading tool?

The guys on YouTube love it. The reviews of guys who bought it from outlets don't.

Midway 3.5 opTics planet 3.0 midsouth 2.6 ratings. After watching YouTube I was going to buy one. When I went to buy it I read those reveiws. Even on Frankfort arsenal site it's a 3.6
I've been using basic RCBS Equipment for 30+ years with the exception of an Ohaus scale. I've been seriously considering upgrading to a Chargemaster lite, and so the post so far have been very helpful to me as well as the OP. Thanks, and keep them coming.

Charge master lite gets lots of good reviews. It's a little slower but seems to be liked by many. The reviews are alot higher than the Frankfort. The Frankfort offers alot for the money but the quality of the unit is not there. Speedy Gonzalez did some modifications to the rcbs units to get them to run faster and more accurate. I don't remember if he used the lite version though.

Another vote for RCBS Chargemaster with straw and speed change. A buddy contacted RCBS about scale drift and they said make sure middle support feet are not screwed all the way in. Sounds crazy but worked for me, no more drift over days of zero or calibration weight value.
Chargemaster lite, ball powders are easily accurate and the big sticks (H4831 non sc) at times will require a stick or two removed, but overall, I believe it makes for safer reloading and better accuracy.
