Hurricane power suplies... HELP...

Ok so I bought a hurricane power supply hp-2 I think in white off eBay.
my problem is with my rotary, I have a stealth rotary machine an basically it kills the power supply every time.
all my other machines work fine with it machines from Aaron Cain an tattoo me also rotary works.
what happens is the second I hit the foot switch with the stealth connected the time on the unit resets instantly an after around 10-15 mins just stops so have to keep hitting the foot switch to start it again after a few rounds at that it stop all together.
also this happens with my Aaron Cain shader just seems to lose power the longer it's run one min I'm running it great then have to turn it up to keep it going abit later the machines seemed to lose the power again.
ive tried lots of different combinations between clip cords an foot switches power cables even wall sockets still has the same problem, even after the guy sent me a replacement unit.
the other thing is my colleague has the SAME suplly unit in black and has absolutely no problems unlike mine..
so what do I do ? I know there all crappy units from god knows where but I'm a clinging to a pile of crap or are they any good if ya get a Working one ?

yea, had one for a back up...
it will max out the duty cycle and reset....no good for rotary machines from my experience..
.havent heard much problems using with coils, but you get what you pay for and its a knock off of a critical so quality is lacking Im sure

Yeah I know the whole copy doesn't make it a critical but I don't get why it does it one the two I have yet doesn't do it with the other yet the other runs rotarys all day no problem at all

Hurricanes are hit and miss, much like a lot of knock offs. The boards are usually garbage in Hurricane supplies. TBH spend the extra 60 bucks and get a CX1 man, it's well worth it.

You can't expect the best results if you don't buy the best equipment. That is me saying it in a nice way. That is why it costs more. Most of the time you won't have a problem w/ the best equipment, & if you ever do you have a builder that will back their equipment. Now you are out money that you could have put towards a great power supply. It's like a customer coming in for a cover-up & then bitching about the price that you give them. Then you tell them if they would have come to you in the first place they wouldn't have the problem of wanting to cover the tattoo.

hurricane power supply is a shitty chinese copy of the critical power supply... buy crap get crap

you want quality no hassle consistent experiences with your equipment, then you just buy quality no hassle consistent equipment. im telling you, ive had cheap pu, machines, needles, etc. and always thought it was Ludacris to spend more on equipment if they have the same products from different companies at a substantially lower price. i quickly found that that was not the case. the more my customers expected from me, the more i expected of myself, the more i expected of myself, the more i expected of my equipment. truly purchasing better supplies gives you a feeling of pride and responsibility for your craft. and there is so much difference in how quality inks, pu, machines, etc., function compared to cheap inconsistent knock-offs. i guess i am not really answering your question exactly other than telling you your problem is the pu not the machine as someone else stated its hit and miss with the cheaper non-quality pu's. buy an actual critical cx1-g2 that is all you need for rotaries, and you will be happy with no problems for a very long time. worth every penny.:D

Cage, that reminds me of a younger guy I made the mistake of giving a business card to on Wednesday, here he ended up being a home tattooer and had to show me pics of horrible tattoos did..wow some of the worst attempts I've ever ran across!
i told him he needs to stop trying to tattoo and learn safety procedures first and draw ur ass off till other people than your homies say it good then seek training & he got all defensive and wanted to compare work.
when I showed him a few pics he asked how come my lines were so dark and why his color never stays in.
i replied that I was apprenticed and taught the proper way to do things and that the supplies that we use are of top quality and good equipment is needed to do good work and it's not cheap.
he replied he paid $200 for his "tat kit" and it even came with 4 tat-machine guns a power supply and all kinds of needles and stuff... I just said well have a nice day and walked away

I had a problem with my cx2 after 2 years.. Doug from Good Guy contacted them for me - before the end of the day they sent me a email with printable label and it was sent the Tuesday.. I had a replacement by Friday - no hassle no fuss no muss... you get what you pay for.

A buddy, Bill traded a machine for a Halo, shortly after he got it,the motor died, he contacted Kayleigh, no hassle - whats the serial ? print this mail it - new motorbolt in about a week, across the border... again - you get what you pay for.

I'd never run my cains on a hurricane...I recently had to have my CX1 G2 v1 replaced. Critical completely replaced upgraded it within 4 days.

i hear you "FTW" its insane, brother. its just like rappers. anyone with a copy of fruityloops software, a mic, and a youtube account is a rapper nowadays. everyone in this country has such a feeling of entitlement they think they deserve the right to do whatever the fuck they want without ever having to work to achieve it, were a country full of shortcuts and cut corners. its just so fucked. in Indianapolis if you take a 30 dollar bloods borne pathogen test and have access to tattoo equipment, it doesn't matter if you have tattooed a day in your life you can go open a shop if you have the money to do so, and as long as those inadequate measures are met the county and board of health don't say shit. its crazy. what makes someone think that its okay to do some shit like that, and how can someone suck so substantially and think they are piping out some dope shit?! can you not look at quality tattoo work and see you are butchering people in comparison? i can, i am no where near where i want to be, but i can do some delicious lines, blend some grays/color and saturate on a level where the customer is happy and i am too when they leave. i strive every day to meet new goals for myself and when i finally met those goals i set more, because i care about what i do and i take pride in that.

I hear ya, Ive yet to master this craft either but I work at progressing all the time, and draw my ass off when I'm not tattooing.
I'm deticated and driven to get where I want to be in this business and do get iratated when I come across theses jokers, Pa laws pretty much condone it so what can you do?
I've seen straight up scratcher shops open in near by towns, and do a fair volume of work..but after fixing the ones possible and covering up their amateur work ,it just makes them loyal customers of mine.
i get people asking why I bag my machine's, bottles and cords and just tell them it's the proper way it should done and I don't cut corners when it comes to their saftey or my own.
im one of the few shops around with a current BBP certificate hanging on the wall and when people that come in that work in the health field see it they always tell me how much better they feel that I care enough to educate myself on the saftey aspects of the business.
