Dave Arnold has some interesting posts about lime juice at the Cooking Issues website. He found that using the mexican style juicer gives a much higher quality of juice compared to rotating juicers, with a fairly negligible loss of volume.
I have compared hand reaming versus the lever type juicers and I feel there is a noticeable increase in bitterness and lower quality with the hand reamers as they extract more pulp and solids.
Another trick with the lever juicers is to cut a bit off both ends of the lime prior to to cutting it in half. This will make the juicing a little easier.

Works better and quicker than anything. You can also use it for smaller oranges.

I microwave lemon before cutting for about 20 secs, it really brings out lots of juice..
