    i realise that it could have a different motor but whos power supply goes to 24, im not trying to bash the machine it just seems a lilttle funny to put a 24 v motor in there when most power supplys dont go that high, not that you would need to, but hey say you use rotary and coil do u really wanna sitch between 6 volts and 17 thruout the tattoo, im sure the flite is an epic machine, wasnt tryin to bash im sure it runs great, like most rotarys do. i just wonder why they chose to go with that, it seems a 6 or 12 v motor is the standard so why the jump.

    it would just really suck to plug in one of your machines and forget its on 17 n toast a motor or scare the fuck out of ur client if u plugged a coil in at that ahaha.

    Special tech machines run at 3 volts...you'd be silly to not own one cause you're to lazy to press a button on your power supply. why would you worry so much about what volts it runs at.... spend less time comparing volts and more time trying new machines... without people trying new motors and new things we may as well still hand poke everything.

    hand poking causes less trauma and you get better depth controll i watched horimasa work a hanya mask faster then most could do it with a coil, haha anyways.... maybe 24 v motors are the new thing

    I personally fell the true potential lies in a 48 volts motor, but we will have to wait and see. ... haha but for real, having a machine that can operate between 9 volts and 20 volts is a huge rang with tons of tiny fine tuning of volts.... where a machine that only rums from 4 to 6 volts there isn't a ton of room to work with.

    Different strokes for different folks. I use my flite everyday... my halos collect dust... and the specifics would be amazing machines if only they had a longer stroke.

    But the inkjecta s3 has adjustable give. And it's a killer machine. (Though the stroke is a bit short for me too)

    The flite is an amazing machine and seriously one of the few machines I have seen recently that is a step forward and not the same old ideas in a different frame.

    It uses a brushless motor and has a small controller board inside to make it work. The benefit is you can run it super slow and retain all of the torque. The wide voltage range gives a lot of room to fine tune it to suit your needs. I haven't seen a power supply yet that doesn't go to at least 18v...
    Nobody has to like it or even try it, but I can't really wrap my head around trashing it without using it first.
    I'm sure it's not for everyone, but it has replaced my thunder for shading and color (and I would have given away half my collection before I got rid of the thunder).
    It's a great machine.
