Anybody have any experience with these ,they're more in my price range for annealing and I don't like the idea of an open flame torch.
 
Cbostick, I sent you a PM. I don't use the Annie, but from what I've read it's about the same as what I use from a guy who's on a couple other forums: a box, an electric cord and a copper work coil. The electronic guts are pretty cheap from him compared to Annie but it's not a polished commercial product like the AMP/Asstec.
 
I've used one for a couple years, they are great, quick. I use the water cooled coil. Cycle time on 223 and 6.5 CM is about 2.0 to 2.5 seconds per piece. I made a trap door type base to set the unit on, drop brass in coil and push the start button, when light goes off, drop the brass out the bottom into a tray. It's actually the fastest step in my reloading process.
