Lots of guys mount lights on these things to better see down into the case to check the powder charge. That said, because the charge is dispensed automatically, it's hare to get a squib except or a double in a round at the powder station unless it's during some kind of jam. At that point you want to take the case in that position out and set it aside for separate processing, then continue with the rest.

If it still concerns you, then you also have the option to move to a basic 650, which has a fifth station for a Dillon powder check die.
