We've just completed a very thorough comparison test of three Electronic powder Dispensing/Scale Units: RCBS ChargeMaster, PACT Dispenser/Scale, and Lyman 1200 DPS II.
Data was collected on accuracy, dispensing speed, and repeatability. We cross-checked accuracy with two balance beam scales. The comparison test consists of two LONG pages. Page 1 has the summary of the findings and a work-time analysis on how the dispensers can speed loading time by 60%.
Page 2 has detailed reports on each of the machines, with graphs and lots of photos.

The RCBS performed best overall, but the PACT was surprisingly good for the price (now discounted by PACT). The Lyman had issues. (You'll find a window on Page 2 containing Midway User reports on the Lyman).
