What are you using to pack the chamber and where did you get it?

I got the Powermatic 3+ and it jams & won't stuff a 100 tube properly. Plus, mine was supposed to brand new & it came sealed up in the original box with scratches on the display & the outside. With mine i use Gambler Tobacco which is finely cut & you still have to cut it more & sift the dust out or she jams.

I gotta try the hk-3. Just bought the 3+ and it won't stuff a 100 tube good. Plus, it jams a lot & thats after cutting & sifting out the dust

Can you move any slower?

Any idea where to get the replacement hydraulic oil?

why is the volume barely audible???...i had to turn up my 120 watt soundbar's [connected to my laptop] volume to near max just to be able to make out your commentary and when the youtube ad began to play sans any warning my speaker not only nearly blew up deafening me for a moment, it had to instantly wake all my neighbors up in my 20 apartment complex building at past 11pm... there's no subtitle option under your video so there's no alternative... wtf dude???... also, if you're trying to demonstrate how this machine works it's a fail because you didn't show the 'working' side of it while operating the hk3... i just purchased the hk3 based on several positive online reviews as an alternative to my powermatic 3+ which began to jam/malfunction continuously after only about 1,500 smokes filled, hopefully it'll be a long term improvement...

Maybe you should turn your volume up so people can hear or mAybe they don't want to

When you change the settings you must wait for the 2nd cigarette to see the difference because of the machine preloading.

The HK-3 is the most perfect design. The original PM series is an old model that has been made for a long time. The HK-3 has perfectly improved many shortcomings on the original style of the PM, so it is the most worth buying. I have nearly 15 years of experience in sales, and what I said is quite authoritative.

You need to clean out your powermatic 3. It shouldn't take that long to make a cigarette. It's grinding way too long.

It looks so cool and it sounds awesome. Its pure art!

WHAT IS THE MOSO "S" USED FOR?

My POWERMATIC 2+ is quieter and I'm able to inject tobacco into 10 filter tubes or half a pack in matter of ~5 minutes. I must say basically the upside of the Hawk-matic HK3 is that It injects tobacco into a filter tube at a very steady and consistent output. With the POWERMATIC 2+, I have to gauge the amount of tobacco I'm placing into the hopper for each and every cigarette. Too little tobacco the cigarette is NOT ideal for smoking.The cigarette will potentially flop. Too much tobacco into a filter tube would result in a hard to drag, a very firm smoking experience. The HK3 produces smokes at a very steady pace. Just place your tobacoo in the hopper, place filter tube on the lip of the machine and hit a button. ANYBODY has the ability to making cigarettes. Kinda of set and forget it. My POWERMATIC 2+ requires a little more labor. You have to use a semi assisted lever when inject tobacco into a filter tube. Nice thing about the POWERMATIC 2+ is the jam protection. Well engineered feature. What happens is if the rod senses too much tobacco or an overload of tobacco in the chamber, the rod will immediately retract. This is done to extend the longevity of the POWERMATIC 2+ machine. It truly whines when its struggling to much tobacco to fill a tube. Kinda funny to see it in action. You'll probably waste a few tubes every so often but you'll notice the saving within the first few weeks of using either machine. Talking about $1.75-2.00 a pack. Taste very close, sometimes better, than some reputable brand name cigarettes. Except They're charging 2-3 times more.

Do you usually sift through the tobacco and take out any stems before loading it into the machine?

hecha tabaco a la powermatic no solo a la hk-3 como no tiene tabaco a los 10 movimientos de las palas de la tolva en la pantalla te sale hooper

I just bought a hk3+ cause of your video..can't wait to start saving money. size was a big part.

ME GUSTA ESA MAQUINA MAS QUE LA POWERMATIC 3+,,PARECE MAS RAPIDA

no conocia la HK - 3 +...ME PARECE MAS RAPIDA

Does it need charging or something? I’ve had it few days and it’s worked great but now it won’t turn on out the blue

You sell this hopper?

How consistent is it packing the tobacco in the tube?

Turn the video upside down so we can see what your doing 😊

Just bought the Hawk-Matic HK3 manual and it is an absolute beast! Best machine I have ever used. I do 100mm and it does them perfect. It is a pleasure to use.

your video is very biased!

So you allow the Powermatic 3 to screw up and then end the video saying the advantage is with the hk3? Why don't you do a fair test my friend or just delete this video thank you.

Thank you, this video helped me decide which one to purchase because I didn't know which one I should get them being the 2 to choose from. The HK3 is much more affordable than the PM3 anyway.

The tobacco is not finely chopped. The powermatic3 has to remove the cigarette in two movements. One more detail. The Powematik3 does not work well with short tubes.

one comment, there are rubber springs behind the 2 buttons that come lose easily, watch for those..thanks for vid.

Just Getting into RYO using the PM3 and Good Stuff red. I notice frequent 'hopper' stops unless I either hand tear the tobacco before use, or run a batch thru the machine without tubes (to precondition the tobacco). Is there a good tobacco cutter I could use separately for this? Just to precondition the tobacco for perfect machine operation.

If you press and hold the reset button it will do short cigarettes without much tobacco being out tje end

Which one can pack the tightest cigarette so it burns longer? I think you can adjust density/fill on both. And which one works best for King size tubes? I just got into MYO cigs, and bought the cheap powermatic mini before investing in one of the big boys. I’m very pleased with the mini overall, my only real complaint, other than the time commitment (which is to be expected) is that it’s difficult to really pack a cigarette tight. Before making the change I was an American Spirit smoker, and loved the smoke time & density of their cigs. I feel like the pm mini makes a smoke that’s closer to like a camel or Marlboro type smoke. Thanks for your time.

Great Video. 👍

Nice Video. Thanks. Could you please post a link to where you purchased the device? It's unfortunately difficult to find something from Germany

Why do t you turn your volume up

Do you grind your tobacco? Our PM3+ was taking forever to make a cigarette until we found out that you should grind the tobacco before using it. This goes for every automatic cigarette injector. It runs like a champ now and is much faster. I just use a cheap food chopper and it works great. The only annoying thing is even with it set to "king", it still has a bunch of tobacco sticking out of the end of the tube when it fills it. That's the only thing that I'm still trying to figure out.

i upgraded from the 2 to the 3 and love it, i sell cartons in my community and it speeds up the process big time

Is the hopper size the same?

Need speakers magnified 100 times to even hear what you saying.

i have the PM3 i can see why you say the hawk is faster but really i think either one is only as fast as you can put the tubes in place of course the longer you do it the faster you'll be on either machine. i can roll a carton in 45 minutes i think i can get to 35-40 min eventually

Does the Cigarette smoke well? Does cherry fallout easily?

Hawk Matic seems like the clear winner. Sad it doesn't get the attention like the PM3 does.

I got mine last night. I am thrilled with it but it came in so late I only rolled 120. I have the same tray you do. I used the little magnetic tray too. I found it real handy to catch all tobacco scraps.

Habeb die sark und die zorr

what tobacco are you using on this machine ..

I just ordered one of these. They seem a lot better built than the old Top-O-Matics.

So that’s what a mode does. Mine just arrived yesterday and I was using it and reading the manual and seen s mode. I actually like the pause it gave the cigarette a second to fall and taking the tobacco off the end. I rolled 5 cigarettes and it was quick! I own the power Matic 2+ and this new machine cut the time in half and much easier. I used shift 1 and it’s packed the tube I can’t imagine how tighter the other 2 levels are. Great machine. I’ve saved a ton of money rolling my own. I usually buy 2 packs every 3 days at a cost of 22-24 dollars. 16 ounces is only 12-13 dollars. That’s legit 600 cigarettes that’s 3 cartons for 12-13 dollars compared to well over 300!

NO S mode on mine

barely can hear it, sorry

I am somewhat interested in replacing my power matic 2 cigarette injector. I think I would like to try one like this, but I have doubts that, due to automation, it may not be able to pack the tobacco to my preferred consistency... I prefer them to be somewhat loose compared to factory, or mass produced cigarettes... What I was looking for that brought me here is advice for storing my tobacco to keep it at a consistent moisture. Sometimes I buy a 1lb bag and it is too fresh or damp. So I'll pull out a handful and let it sit overnight. But living in Florida, there are times when I'll wake up and it's even more moist! 😆 I need consistency.... I'm thinking of a humidor. But I want to see how other people deal with this
