Yes, I think it is. I have all of the 419 upgrades but the glass powder hopper because they break easy, I still use the plastic Lyman hopper. The billet base for the trickler and the powder cup are must haves for sure. I did the Bluetooth upgrade on mine as well, this should be the first upgrade.

Yes it really speeds the process up, especially throwing charges for load developent.
Wasn't OP asking about the Area 419 accessory kit for the Autotrickler (that doesn't add bluetooth) and not the Autotrickler V2-V3 upgrade kit (which does add Bluetooth)?
Yes he was indeed and I answered that... I then told him that I would buy the Bluetooth upgrade ($60.00) before I purchased any of the shiny aluminum upgrade kits($450).
Yes I surely think that it is. I just do not care for the pyrex powder hopper because the plastic Lyman one is way harder to break. My brother broke his pyrex hopper that was full of powder. It made a mess.
Bluetooth is the shizzle. Lets you dial in exact charge from your phone or tablet. Plus, you can run the trickler motor continuously for “priming” the trickler’s powder tube. Both are massive time/frustration savers. Bluetooth upgrade is by far the best, most valuable upgrade.
Funny with the bluetooth - I was switch from h4350 to varget and was cycling via app. Didn't have the cup underneath the funnel and accidentally hit my finger on cycle thrower. Just wasted 36grns of varget and 30 minutes of my time cleaning it up.
Still will never go back.

Small shop vac makes quick work of that!
It did but got powder in all the tinny nooks on my bench. Had to air can and vac up.
