Btw JRL came up with the “MIM” cooling system blade waaaaay before babyliss
Yup in their original clippers i think it was the 1000s or 1040s the clipper literally had a vent to push hot air out the back of the machine. They really always been the most innovative clipper company for years
I took the case off my Gold JRL 2020c and spray painted it Matt Black (now it's not slippery) and put a fusion blade on it.... It's now basically the Onyx.... Poorman's version 2.0
I agree about the ergonomics... Its not horrible but not great. (microphone is a good description) Was gonna buy the Onyx but I don't feel like it would be much of an upgrade, so I'm waiting for TPOB Play. I already like his ergonomics better. Plus he cracks me up and I wanna support the brand. Already ordered the XO large in part to your Review 🤙🏽
Glad to hear that I’m helping 😂
I love hearing everyone’s ways of tinkering and modding their tools. That’s straight up barber mentality
Great review!!! Good luck with the channel
Thanks
Is this the same thing with the tpob play just looks different? Same blade, same runtime, same click lever, same rpms 6000/7500, same charging time.
Very very close I do think the mold on the play also provides more vibration and noise cancellation
Appreciate you keeping it real
It’s like a better fast feed
"Not uh" I literally laughed out loud. I said the same thing.
😂
I've had the Onyx since the day it came out and I'm going to have to completely disagree with you on power. This is the strongest clipper I've come across. I've cut through some of the thickest hair I can find and this thing never bogs. Cuts very clean on the first pass. The original JRL couldn't handle any bulk but the new onyx is a total beast in every catagory
its the ceramic blade that makes it feel a bit weak but smoother if you switch to say a magic clip cutting blade it goes through bulk easier but it will get hot if you put a wahl fade blade and cutting blade but power does increase
I agree with you, and disagree w the guy in the video lol
@@infrarg916I've heard some say using the babyliss wedge blade with wahl stagger tooth cutting blade on the JRL is a match made in heaven 🔥🔥
I’m just going off my experience with it, maybe it’s just not my match. I did like it a lot but it didn’t meet my expectations. All good to agree to disagree 🤜🏼💥🤛🏼
I have 2 of the 2nd generation 2020C's and I've never had any problems busting through extremely thick course hair. It was almost scary how effortlessly it went through, so I don't get the claims that it's weaker. Hands down I'd say this is one of the best clippers I've put my hands on in 31 years of cutting.
What guards are you using with them? I heard the Wahl premium's rattle on them. Also what do you think the throw is in them when they're open? A half? A 1?
On these I was using the TPOB premiums
Do u have any idea if the jrl fresh fade 2020c and the onyx have the same blade??
I’m not 100% sure but I think the onyx and the ghost were the first one to have the blades with the oil reservoirs on them idk if the 2020c had that
If I have to choose one good machine for home use only for styling the beard, which one do you recommend I buy: jrl onyx or wahl magic clip gold?
I would go jrl. It cuts very smooth and I personally don’t care much for the magic clip
Could you review the supreme trimmer, recharge,and 2 speed
Let me look into that!
Best chanel🔥😁🙏
Thanks so much!
@@thewoodshedbarber have you tried the gamma cyborg clipper or trimmer?
@@goransvensson5547 not yet but they are on the list
@@thewoodshedbarber wait🙏🔥
Is it a great clipper to start with or what would you prefer?im starting barber school
It’s a fantastic clipper to start with. Especially with the battery life
Thanks for replying
Good review. I agree with this 💯
Thanks brother 🤜🏼💥🤛🏼
What's your go-to clipper?
Right now the TPOB Play, Andis ReVite and Suprent pro black obsidian is all very high in my affection!
Also got to disagree with you on the power thing. Great at doing soft fades with the 2 speed settings. But even more greater for bulk and clipper over comb! All rounder my opinion
I understand! I’m starting to think I received a dud.
Check out the new Suprent Black Osidian set
Had it a while, it’s my next review!
@@thewoodshedbarber I look forward to it :)
switch the cutting blade it def goes through bulk
Pricing is bad but in the name of the clipper is “fresh fade”.. it’s meant to fade and detail only they don’t market it as a powerhouse clipper but it definitely wasn’t worth the $250 originally or the $199… sold 2 of them because the blade/guards are mid and its terrible once you zero gap them
I’d have to totally disagree with you about going through bulk. I have every good ad adjustable clipper on the market and this thing eats through bulk as good as any of them do. Maybe you just got a defective clipper
It’s all good I believe in people disagreeing with me.
Better than tpob play??
Not in my opinion
I got thr taper one
I laugh at the Kevin Hart cameo every time
That’s my plan 😂
Put a Oster Blade on that bad boy
