Flame Anneraler

Annealeez or EP 2.0?

Either of there offer something more than the other? The Annealeez looks a little less DIY so I am leaning that way. Thoughts?

For that style of flame annealer, I’d look for a Giraud annealer. Solid piece of gear and they pop up in the PX occasionally. Still have my Giraud and use it occasionally for run of the mill gas gun cases. AMP for everything else.

Any of the flame annealers can work just fine as they're all simple machines tending to be pretty reliable. It's all a matter of getting the necks heated up to the right temperature for the right amount of time.

I've been using my Annealeez for a little over 8 years now having annealed ~15,000 case in that time. Back when I first got mine, it didn't have a digital display and just had to rely on the nob setting for the speed. I added a digital display and change from the pencil flame torch head to a swirl flame torch head. Other than those mods, I've not done anything else to it and it's been running just fine. Some people have had an issue with the flame getting the rubber rollers too hot. That was easy to avoid simply by making sure the flame pointed at an angle away from the rollers while keeping the flame on the neck properly.
