if you come from coils, try the dragonfly long stroke or the sunskin primus. they are both on the slower side, running good at somewhere around 95 to 105 hz. sunskin is a bit heavier but comes closest to coils. the dragonfly is lighter ( good if you use disposable grips). i love both machines for bg and lining. dragonfly is a tiny bit better for coloring. both machines are low vibrating, low noise . the bizarre v2 was way to fast and soft for my liking. sold it after 1 month tried both, the medium and the long stroke excenter. did this tattoo exclusively with dragonflys in two hours .
