    I guess the customs pulled your package and you have to pick it up there with an invoice if the package has incorrect paperwork. Happens to me all the time...

    I hope not, the package is still in the US, i'm in the UK. This is a good example of why Ray needs a good UK distributor. Tattoo Rite sucks and i won't do business with them.

    I was very pleased to receive the Vivace this morning and tore the package open carefully but quickly. It was very well packed and had a tube of Super Lube in which was very much appreciated.

    I have to say i haven't used the older Neo Tat models so i can't compare their looks, weight or function. It wasn't the best of tests today because it was a piece on a person with severe stretch marks but it was still nice to break it in, so to speak. The balance and weight are really nice and it seemed very comfortable to shade with. It's virtually silent and it was very smooth running. The needle clip works extremely well, such a simple idea but very effective. One thing i thought was strange was using a rotary machine on such high volts. My Rotaryworks, Mike Metaxa and Evolution all run under 4.5v so having to turn my Critical up to 9v seemed like overkill but it's just a little quirk on my part that i'll soon get used to. Didin't seem to cause too much trauma which i was very aware of given the area and bad skin i was working on. So far, so good.

    Mike Metaxa, RotaryWorks and Neotat all use the same brand of motor just not the same type. If your motor is a 6 volt it will usually run faster at much lower volts and a 12 volt needs more juice for the same operation. There are advantages and disadvantages to both but usually the choice is made by the builder marrying the drive system and the motor type for the best results over all.

    Yeah i know, i'm just used to using my presets on my Critical rather than turning it up til 9-10v. It's not a problem though. I've actually got some of the 6v motors so i can change them when they die without changing the function.
