Thank you all for watching and have a great day. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Thanks for the video bro. I thought I was the only one eyeing on this machine and it's been in my cart for months now...
I know the feeling, thats why i decided to pull the trigger on it 🤣
So question have you tried Oleg idea of removing the spring underneath the bar? And if you did.. did you notice any increase of how it hits?..
@04jimaica yes i took out the spring because i use it with carts. It definatly hits harder nog that the spring is removed. But i have to use it a bit more on different kind of tattoos and different needles to really give the correct answer. But as of now i do think it hits a lot harder without the spring
That's really good to know bro! Really appreciate it a lot.
@04jimaica no problem bro 🤘
Nice! We need an update on it!
I will, first a bit more testing
Nice video!!!I would like to see it at work with the cpild needles tha long oness.!
🔥🔥
Great video. The machine may perform better with a traditional power supply
I am pretty sure. The amperage output on the batteries are usually lower as well.
@@Tattoobart147I was wondering that if battery’s are consistent enough
This machine is great with the ink claw phoenix grip, which goes down to 3v. That grip is way more expensive, but I feel like it's worth it, especially with the added weight it gives. Much better for lining and packing.
I do really want to try that grip! Thanks for the advice
Wow and how do you like the battery grip that’s cool
You have to get used to it a bit. But now that ive been using it a bit more i like it. I have a review about the grip as well on my channel
I am looking at this style how did it hold up and what’s your thoughts verse the pen rotary
I feel that for linework it is way more efficient than a pen machine. But keep your eyes peeled on the channel. I have a similar style machine from a different brand which is amazing too!
@@Tattoobart147 thank you bro for the answer
@AndrewHohn no problem 😉
To choose between this one, and the camera X2 on the overall basis without the dust stroke on this defender, which one we think is better
I think they are both 2 different machines. The x2 is a pen style machine with a fixed stroke. So its hard to compare
@@Tattoobart147 I’m sorry I was text talking the camer ex2 I also have that in the same one u reviewed and I also had to to some things to make it work better then it did when I initially got it I been looking at this defender for awhile also. But have t seen anyone review it or anything really on it I would like to use it with the ambition grip but do u think it is worth the money since u also used it with the battery grip?
@DanielPutman_tattoos ooh you mean the ex 2 thats kind of like a side winder. I think if you want to use it with a wireless grip and cartridges the defender is probably a better option than the ex2 because it not running with metal springs.
@@Tattoobart147 ok thanks I’ll give the defender a try then. I’m going too eventually posting videos of me doing tattoos and reviewing the current t machine I do have don’t have anything good to review yet nor do I have a decent camera and stand to get started
But I would love to try to get some type of company’s send me things to review I’m sure that would be a good experience to see the difference between all the types of machines and cartridges they have n get a feel of what is best for me I do wanna order the dk v7 clone and see how that it that is probably very similar to the ex2 probably right. It kinda looks a lil better built tbh on my ex2 just doesn’t hit hard enough for me at least
@D_inks666 you will get there i am sure 👍
I do think the ex2 actually hit harder than the dk v7 clone.
Bro I tried with a traditional power supply and the power it's insane even with 7 voltage
Yeah even with a battery i line around maybe 6 volts and shade/ pack around 4.5 volts. Its super strong o
I think its because of the Torque. This Machines are build that way, so the longer the stroke, the lower the Torque. Its because of that Long adjustable bar in the machine, the nearer you get to the center of rotation, the weaker ist the Torque. Its Like swinging a broom while Just Holding it at the tip. Of course its harder to move it Up and down, as if you grab it lower. Simple physics.
But you can fix it a bit, by removing that spring under that bar. I think its Not meant to be there If you using cartridges. Its there for keeping the needle in the tube If the machine is off. But If you use cartridges, its unnecessary Because of the membrane, that removes the needle by itself.
Thanks for your info, i will see if i can do that. You mean the spring that in between the frame and armature bar right?
Yes thats the spring i was talking about. Its the Return spring for needles without cartridges. With cartridges its Double that harder for the Motor to fight against the membrane, the spring and the skin. Im sure you will feel a big difference.😊
@olegbarth928 yeah that actually makes lots of sense, thanks for sharing 🤘
@@Tattoobart147youre welcome.
Ur right m8 😜 sidewinder machines act just like that and for working with cartriges u'll have to take off that spring or bring a ruber band arround the armature bar to pull 😉
Which of the cheap chinese machine is the best till now? Ambition Torped one?
I think its a little bit to early to say. I need to test this machine some more to really give the right answer. But the torped itself is a bit cheaper than this one. But i am more trying to to see if this machines gives a bit more of that coil or sidewinder feel rather than a pen style feeling
@@Tattoobart147 I hope the torped one is better cause I ordered it....I wanted something like the bishop wand liner!
@AlexandrosNikolakis dont worry i am pretty sure the torped wont disappoint you
@@Tattoobart147 Thanks alot!!I have one dragonhawk fold pro and one ambition hello machine.The hello one I think is not as good as I wanted it to be...not bad but ok....in the comments I find alot of modifications about these machines with motor changes or cam changes...maybe you should do something like this in the videos!Either way I love your videos!
@@AlexandrosNikolakis i think those days are gone...
There ist nearly nothing to Change or do, what isn't already build and sold Like that on amazon or AliExpress.
And to answer your question about the best cheap machine: It doesn't matter, because there ist no best maschine any more. There are Just two kinds of Machines. The one, that you like and work best with and all the other machines, that you dont like. Everything else is depending on the way you work.
Sick lol
How much are they?
I have some links in the discription. They are somewhere around the €150,- i believe
You used it yet
Yes i used it yesterday, and made a video so it should be online somewhere this week! Makes a lot of difference that i took out the return spring!
