Wow!

Wow again!

It sure works better then the Midway 1292 I had been using. Amazing how much faster it cleaned up the brass then the Midway unit given the same time in the tumbler. Quiet, smooth running and very effective. I will have to post a picture of it compared to the Midway because it is much bigger.

Here is the link to the UV-45I bought. I bought the beast on a whim because I felt my 1292 had been repaired enough and I was worried about the cord vibrating off again. After the third fix I figured I should reduce the load on it to just small batches and keep the big slugs of brass in something bigger.

So again. Nice unit, works great and is very quiet.
 
I've had mine now for about 10 years. What sold me was a commercial reloader told me he used them and you could let the things run all night long without fear of the thing heating up. I tried it and it just keeps on going. It's certainly as good as any of them out there and much better than most. I've had nothing but good luck with mine.
 
No dought the Thumblers Tumblers are very good products and I have eyeballed both them and the Berry's tumbler to replace my Lyman, but the Lyman won't wear out. I routinely run it overnight or all day while I'm at work and it's been doing that for over 20 years.:)
