Dawg, I don't 'Hate' inanimate objects.
I don't love or hate 'Things'.
We have tried to point out to you over & over again, other than the timing information Amp posts on their web site, there isn't much difference in the units between Amp & Annie.
Annie can be a coil or Ferrite unit, while the Amp about has to be a coil unit because the case isn't rotated,
A Ferrite heats a little unevenly if you don't rotate the case.
Other than that, not much difference, power supply, induction units work under the exact same electrical principals, the timers are 1/10 or 1/100 second, both digital & programmable, just not that much difference between the way the units work.
What is different, the Annie doesn't recommend any specific times, and since the Amp comes from a 60 cycle power grid system, the recommended timing is going to be off on a 60 cycle power grid system like the US.
The Amp doesn't allow you to adjust your brass for YOUR particular neck champfer/deburred, even if they have a table for turned neck thickness, they can't possibly compensate for every champfering/deburring tool on the market.
Like was discussed (and apparently ignored since Amp didn't cover it in the sales propaganda), depending on how clean the brass is will move the annealing time around.
There is no possible way YOU, Amp or anyone else can sort out what brass formula is on EVERY brass out there. That one simply CAN NOT be done since the brass manufacturers guard the formulas,
And they change formulas on a regular basis...
There is no way possible to know by headstamp WHEN the brass was made, so no possible way to precisely give 'Last Word' timing information...
Now, I can call BS directly on who ever wrote about 'Perfect' annealing the case side, shoulder, neck & mouth on every brass stuck in it.
That would take VERY carefully adjusted (shaped) ferrites, no possible way a round coil could do it, completely against the law of electro-magnetic Dynamics. Period.
The ONLY way to do it would be with ceramic insulators & heat sinks to protect the other three areas while ONE area was annealed, so you would need 4 sets of heat sinks & insulators for each caliber,
AND you would have to run each case at least 4 times.
At least with a ferrite you can shape it to provide more or less energy to the different areas of the case.
It won't be a ton of difference, but you CAN fairly easily shape the Ferrite to NOT overheat the mouth/neck while more energy gets applied to the THICKER case side shoulder...
The only requirement is rotating the case to even the heating out even more.
Coils are AREA annealing, while ferrites FOCUS the energy on specific areas, to a certain extent.
I don't 'Hate', I just know enough about electro-magnetic link, magnetic eddies, the design of most induction units (since I've built them from scratch, and studied a lot more designs than I built),
I know BS claims when I hear them...
At the very least, Amp is WAY overblowing the capabilities, and if everything you claim is on there website is actually there, it's outright lies...
The next big lesson you need to learn is promotion by web sites, magazines etc is paid for advertising.
Its real easy, anytime you see an article about this or that, simply look for that product's company in the advertisers index.
If you find it there, and you will, you know for sure that product got a bought & paid for spot in the media you see it...
I can name several products that used advertising dollars to buy a 'Reputation', from all those oil additives that got debunked & sued out of existence, to downright silly products, like tinfoil to put in your hubcaps to prevent speeding tickets, toilet tank valves in fuel lines to reduce the amount of fuel an engine uses, to herbal supplements that make your 'Jonson' bigger...
Some people swear by them even though they have been debunked over & over again, like the 'Pain Reliever' that was nothing more than a grill sparker that shocked you.
Nothing like bought & paid for 'Impartial' press coverage!
Again I will stress the Amp CAN annealing cases, but it has ZERO feedback to adjust for YOUR specific brass vairables,
That's why we are talking vairables here, so you have enough education to at least identify the vairables.
As far as brass samples sent to Australia, ONE BRASS DOES NOTHING.
Science REQUIRES a sample LOT to assess an AVERAGE...
A single hardness test does nothing for a proper scientific analysis, you need a sample LOT to identify an average, to test for composition, grain structure, hardness RANGE, ect.
That alone makes me suspect Amp's claims...
YOU haven't been willing to listen to vairables we bring up, simply quoting Amp and discounting the rest.
(Like how clean the brass is)
If Amp is going to give you 'Perfectly' annealed brass, they will be right on the edge of destruction of that brass, as we have discussed here several times...
If they discount a vairable as important as cleaning, then again I suspect the process they are using and I outright dismiss the claims they make, simply because I know better.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, until YOU can hardness test, do micrographs, etc,
YOU have no idea in the world if Amp is doing what they claim or not.
Now, on the other hand, I've not laid hands on an Amp (Yet...), But if/when I do, you can bet I will do that very testing simply because I'm curious,
And *IF* they can back up those almost unbelievable claims, I want to know how they do it...
