Always use membraned cartridges for staters. Barrier film covering the entire grip, cut a small hole for the cartridges, clipcord sleeve over that taped on to the film trailing over the rest of the machine and then some vet wrap (coflex tape) over that for proper grip. Hopefully that makes sense, once the machine is unwrapped use a high level disinfectant like cavicide on the outer surfaces and cord. Sounds complicated but is actually extremely easy and safe to keep your machine completely clean and have no chance of cross contamination.

That's great, thanks very very much. Ya do perfect reviews. Appreciate it. Rock on

I think your perspective is great, we do need to think about things in those terms. Well said!

Much appreciated Anthony!

Great points!!! They can't be denied.

Got my solnova a few weeks after your first video on it. Mine was super silent and smooth from the start and has not changed yet. However I don’t have 1000 hours on it, perhaps around 300 as my main is a spectra edge x. I hope it lasts tho, as I’m really enjoying it so far and it’s turning in to my main device.

Great follow up review!!

The Sol Nova Unlimited 4.0mm is good for heavy linework/traditional styles as well!

It sounds like the hawk thunder after I dropped it on the cement floor... Not good. Something is definitely amiss there. Good luck. I actually bought a Bishop Fantom because of a review you gave on it. I like it but I have a hard time getting away from using the Sol Nova. I love that machine and like you, my work has been a little better and consistent when I use it.

I hear that whirring noise even when I am not tattooing, either that or frogs and crickets....ahhh tinnitus.....Reminds me of a buddy who would ask strangers, "Pardon me, do the voices in my head bother you?" What a way to start a conversation.

Oh my, that is loud, does it grind coffee too?

I just started using my machine solely. I do more fine line kinda stippley work, most the time. Most things with a 3 r. It’s definitely different but I’m currently liking the results. This video was informative, thanks! I’m not sure if I’m really sold over coil, but it certainly makes easy for travel and gets the job done. I can tell my work looks a bit smoother,even tho that’s not really what I’m shooting for, but my clients along with myself are happy with the results. I’ve tried the new bishop wand and they’re pretty great too. Maybe even a little punchier. I’m not sure if you have any experience comparing the two? I’m rambling, mostly I was going to comment bout the sound comment. It being like a jet loudness, haha. How would you compare the sound of coil machines to what the sol nova sounds or eventually sounds like?

Any luck on scoring the axys Valhalla? That sounds like a blender now. Great informative vid as usual.

@Anthony Jenkins - out of all the rotary brands what do you think is the best all round rotary for lining and color packing with very vibrant saturation? Be good to hear ur input as u review alot

Hey dude love your reviews. I purchased a Sol Nova after getting to try out my coworkers - I switched from a Xion. The level of precision feels higher, it feels faster, the motor feels stronger, and the vibration feels less. As to the sound of the noise, it could very well be the motor being overworked potentially. The manual says not to run the machine over 12.6 volts which 12.2 volts is pretty high and might be putting additional strain on the motor after 1000 hours even if it is technically within the operating parameters. As a side, i noticed many cartridges - even very high quality carts - will leave some small tiny pieces of plastic in the drive bar area of a machine. I noticed this happened with my xion, and I noticed it happens with the Sol Nova as well. I think the grades of plastic used in the cartridges are not meant to completely withstand the friction and heat they are receiving during the tattoo process. Some of those tiny bits of plastic may be getting pushed up into the drive bar mechanism area and motor? I do clean out that little space as best I can with Q tips and lightly dipped in alcohol or such. But we arent able to actually open the machine further than that. The Sol Nova for me has been a real game changer for me personally and I use it on every tattoo. That being said I do also use a DK DMC machine to push some larger groupings and for specific whip/stipple effects.

My Hawk pen start doing this noise today. I think its the spring but unfortunately i dont have warranty anymore. I have tried the nova from my girlfriend and my best tattoos i did with the nova so now im going to buy the Unlimited. Thanks for the video

Hi man,can I ask you what do you think about this machine to do style like mandala,where the most work is dots and line? And what kind of size are able to push on RL and RS? Thanks if you answer!

The bad sound is actually from the cam. The bad thing about cheyenne is it’s very difficult to open but if you do open it and lube the bearing with a little amount of super lube the noise will go away instantly. My cheyenne pen became noisy same as yours after 2 years of constant usage and it was out of warranty so I opened it and lubed the bearing and backup spring with super lube and it’s running smooth and silent, same as new. I’m pretty sure if you send them your machine they’ll lube the bearing

the noice that you hearing.. is the bearing on the axist on the motor if you know how to disasemble ..it's easy to replace then your good... thats there mistake by putting small bearing on the motor cartridge is pushing up the axis ... but that brushless motor is super good it will last forever ......

i though that a brushless motor will last much longer than a conventional one, you prove it wrong, may i ask you is the motor in your inkjecta still ok or any signs of wear?, and at this point do you think the sol nova is better than the inkjecta, thanks , as always great videos.

jorgeaservin my inkjecta is still ok but also has gotten much less use than the sol nova so I don’t feel like I can compare the two in terms of long term use. It’s really tough to say which machine is better, they both have their very strong points and each have a couple weaknesses but if I could only pick one to use from now until I retire it would be the Sol Nova, despite its faults I still think it’s the best machine on the market today.

What needles do you think work the best for lining and shading? I'm using the 3.5 but seem to have a little issue packing color.

If you truly put 1000 hours on this machine at say $100/hr you’ve made $100k with it..... it has done you well..... I think you have gotten a ton of value from that initial investment

my nova stopped working one week after purchase.

How to keep this thing clean?

My Sol Nova became noisy two weeks after I bought it, with a high pitched vibration/rattling noise. I run at 9.5v usually. It still functioned normally, just an awful noise. I tried everything on my end (power supply, footswitch, cartridges, wrap) and the noise wouldn't go away so I sent it in for repair. They told me everything was normal. I got it back, still just as noisy as before. So I just wasted money on shipping and shipping insurance in the end. It still functions fine, and the noise is still there several months later. I think I've gotten used to it, but it was dead silent for the first couple weeks and I wish it still was. Thanks for doing these videos Anthony - perhaps yours has a different issue that they can fix. On the bright side they have a repair center in the US for us Canadians so turnaround time is very fast now.

Do you have any experience with inkjecta’s customer service? I’ve been thinking about buying a hawk pen but I don’t want to have to keep sending it back because of the mono plug. Inkjecta’s customer service is going to be the factor that’s going to make me decide, I think

Defne Aksoy the newer hawkpens have no issues with the mono plug and I haven’t experienced (or even heard of) any issues with the Sol lineup having mono plug issues either. Cheyenne also has changed their service location to the US so it’s much better than I had experienced in the past. That said they’re both great options, I’ve personally never had to deal with customer service at Inkjecta but for me sending something all the way to Australia and back wouldn’t be ideal based on location. With either choice I wouldn’t be expecting to send a machine back within the first three years of work unless you have an insane workload like I do. Hope that helps!

My sol nova is pretty new still just a few months. But i am using it every day for all my shading and color work. And i like it far more then my xion. It feels more precise and i dont have a lot of noise yet. But it has quite a unique sound sometimes. Now i just hope it lasts. No problems with the mono plug either. Also i totally agree with your statement on the value of the sol nova. I think 1000 hours is not that bad. Regarding the different stroke lengh of the new cheyenne machines i have to disagree. I know no one who switches out cams or does anything similar mid tattooing. So most people set up more machines for different strokes anyway because its more convenient. So choosing which stroke fits the task you want the machine for best and sticking with one of them should be fine. It is still very expensive indeed considering they come without a grip tho. Anyway i am really wondering, do you know how many hours a typical rotary motor lasts? I mean someone told me they loose power with the years but i know nothing about that but i am very curious. Also what do you do with your older machines, selling them? Collecting? When do you decide its time for a new machine?

When you use anything other then Cheyenne power supply you run the risk of damaging your machine. Although you can use Cheyenne machines with other power supplies you should be aware of this. There’s a reason why Cheyenne makes their own power supplies. The comparison is obvious. Better work output when the machines run at the specs they were designed to. Stay woke 👀

Bad_Guy_Tattoo808Hawaii on Instagram Hawaiian I’m not sure who told you that but it’s completely incorrect, using any poor quality power supply isn’t a good idea but someone convincing you that Cheyenne power supplies somehow run cleaner or more consistent power than say a Critical or even an EMS420 is just silly, good power is good power. Cheyenne makes its own power supply for the same reason they make their own cord sets and foot pedals, to make money on proprietary items that don’t have change over to other brands. “Stay woke”🤣

Anthony Jenkins I talked to their vendors and that’s what I was told. I can see the difference between both power supplies. My critic my is not a poor quality power supply it’s the big interface one and I also have an Eicon. All expensive and high quality.

Bad_Guy_Tattoo808Hawaii on Instagram Hawaiian yea vendors are well known for their honesty while moving products🤣 I also have 4 different power supplies in shop and if you feel a difference that’s great but like I said, clean power is clean power regardless of the brand that’s on it. You’re fooling yourself because a dude getting paid commissions at a convention told you his was better.....a dude that has probably never done a tattoo in his life. Conversation over man, use what you tattoo best with, who cares what me or anyone else thinks.

The hummingbird Swiss motor machine is just as good as that just saying it's not worth the money man your paying for the name brother for real...... 💯

My daughter's sol nova died after 6 months no power and no lights

The sol nova doesn’t have lights so that’s a little suspect off the top but also covered under warranty so I wouldn’t be too concerned, it’d get fixed for free unless she did something to destroy it like use poor cartridges or run it at inappropriate speed

I'm kind glad I didn't invest in that machine..

hi :) Ive been watching your videos as i'm planning on buying my first tattoo gun and been finding them very helpful. my budget for my set up is $300-$1000 this needs to include purchasing ink, needles, the machine (or two machines as i'm interested in getting a liner and a shader if not one of the pen style machines) and other equipment needed. if you could give me some advice/suggestions it would be really appreciated. or making a buying your first tattoo machine set up would be really helpful for people like me! :) Thank you!

You should just go on ebay and search "tattoo gun and setup" I bet you can get one for way less than $1000!! Also you can get ink and needles cheap by going to a shop near you and asking if they have any their not using.

BazBazowski all Cheyenne ever does is repair, I’ve never even heard of them sending a new machine, I’m sure it’s happened but the absolute best you can hope for is a refurbished motor. That said it was repaired under warranty, no issues whatsoever and quick turnaround. Sorry was confused!

So is it possible that the mediocre performance of an expensive machine caused you to adress shortcomings in your tattooing that you didn't notice with a non-problematic machine. If this is the case and you went ahead and addressed those issues/shortcommings (which we all have to do to become better artist/technicians) it could be that a slightly inferior or inadequatley superior machine cause you to become a better tattooist because of your personal discipline and your desire to give a $1000 a chance to proove it's worth. Just a suggestion. Bias works both ways believe you me I have given a heaping helping of second and third chances that never panned out. It is in the doing sometimes and not just in the getting er done. Peace, don't cut yourself short.

You run a 9V motor over 12V for a thousand hours and it’s the machine’s fault? WTF?!

@anthonyjenkins3335

2 жыл бұрын

Lol, ok so a couple things, for starters the Sol Nova was a 3 watt dc motor rated for a running range of 5-12.6 volts so I’m not sure what you mean by “9v motor” but that makes no sense. Second it’s been a while since I recorded this but I’m not sure I ever blamed the machine, simply reporting what happened.

It's just a machine man and it is breakable .... we earn 1000 $ for 1 or 2 days so.......
