It sounds as though it behaves like my La Santa Maria regarding noise and vibration, pretty much none at all. I only buy new machines when I need one (I'm far too tight to be a machine junky) but it's going to be another HM machine when I do. I have 3 and use them every day so can't recommend them enough.
I wonder if these have a slight "dampening" like the Santa Maria because I can't fault that machine.
Any stateside yet?
I've just got the 3.4mm version, had a quick go with it to put some solid colour in, impressed so far. I'll be using it for 2 full day sessions today and tomorrow so I'll know more after then.
I just received a few machines from Roman I'm going to be trying out... The Invictus is a 3.4 and I'm going to see how it is for everything.

Ok so have used this 3.4mm machine on two large tattoos with a standard 9 mag, found it works best for me at 9.5-10v and did everything with it, solid black, soft black and grey, bit of colour shading, a few lines with a tight 7. It does everything as I expected it would. It's tiny, low vibration and noise but solid as fuck. Another great HM rotary.
Bottom half of this was all done with the 3.4mm version. Can't fault this machine really.
