Any feedback would be great. Not a Cart user but I'm weighing my options because I want to give it a shot.

I run them all day everyday on battery. The dragonfly x2 is the best adjustable machine to push carts. Its the machine that made me put down my thunder/flite/fki/whatever else that is out and pushes pushes carts.
The swash compact is a close second on the adjustable cart machine list for sure. It's only drawback is the weight feels a little off for a few tattoos. It's easy to get used to thoigh.

Hey Asa how do you compare the X2 to the hawk pen- performance wise? I like the option of going wireless with the x2 Im very interested in that

I feel like the x2 can run just as fast and powerful as the hawk pen. Annnnnd Ive been tinkering with 3d printing a battery to make the hawk pen wireless using the rps 600. Still a bit of fine tuning to do.. but I'm close.

i have like the dragonfly more as the hawk pen - because i can change and adjust how i like it with the same power and speed possible. Now i try my immortal more and more and like it too.

What stroke length do you use with the x2 asA? I've always been a bit skeptical about the dragonfly's I heard they were a bit underpowered. I've always had a little trouble lining with rotary and the FK Edge X has been the first cartridge rotary I've been okay with lining with, but I'm only really comfortable lining at the maximum stroke.

X2 has a stronger motor and adjustable stroke that gets longer than the edge. I personally couldn't line very well with the edge, i have 0 issue lining with the x2. It's give is far more adjustable than the edge x which is so subtle it's laughable. I pretty much use my x2 dragonflys everyday for everything.

Onechance stringray is linear. Dragonfly is circular.
