Hey JDrake, does Red work at your shop? I am actually from Des Moines, used to work at BigFoot Tattoo with laddy and bacon. As far as your question goes I haven't had any time with the ego yet, but my spektra has been my daily driver for the last few months and it's a solid machine. Using up to 14r's it pulls single pass lines for me and packs without a problem.
Ego needs to be aluminum ... halo is way better....not even a question.. hence the price.. especially if u use steel tubes...plastic on plastic is ok.. but not metal on plastic
We found that couple of the first Halos used to vibrate because the slider ran a bit lose in some. We remade sliders and all halos since 3 months ago do not vibrate like some used to. We got rid of most of the residual vibration without compromising the incredible torque that the Halo has. Also, with the introduction of the Magic lube most issues were sorted out.
All Spektra machines shipping these days have a dramatic improve of performance.
3.2 and 3.6mm wil do it all. Yes You can line with the Halo better than ever before.
It also can nit really soft, all you need to do is to clip a few loops of the rear spring if you feel it hits too hard.
We will also have a spring kit coming up for users to chose the ones they like.
We are almost out of Halos until next production run so what's on the site, is what's there is.
If any of you have a Spektra with lose slider we will refit and ship back to you in the USA for just $30 bucks regardless who you got the machine from.

In fact I'm starting a new thread :)
Never had any issues with any of mine homie even at 8.5 volts with ttech she's smooth as butta! The only variation I have is in the finish, my older halos have more of a satin finish and my newer ones have more gloss but I dig it that way it helps me narrow down what motor is in what machine being that I love dem black ho's so much hahahaha.
Mick you are quiet of a Halo addict :pQuote:

Any feedback on that would be great- ex- stroke length-- volts - give -needle hang-
I prefer my halo over my ego. My Halo has a broader range of give than the ego ever thought to have. Don't get me wrong the ego has its own attributes. Ego just wasn't for me.
