  • I wish i was able to give this machine the full review it deserves. The Acus M1 tattoo machine, is crazy. It offers up some seriously impressive features. I was only able to use the machine for around 8hrs so this is my initial impression.

    4.1 is the best stroke on this machine for me, I can do 49mag blackwork to 3rl fine line it's crazy

    I’ve had the Acus for about a month. My favorite setup is 4.5 cam, with m+2 between 85-95 hertz. This is literally the best machine I’ve ever used. Reminds me of a rotary/ coil hybrid.
    The m+ setting let you adjust how hard the needs hits on each stroke. The machine speed more or less allows for more “machine bog”.

      @@Camera728 have you tried setting it to -1 or -2? I believe I’m around 94hertz -2 for my color packing. It drastically changes how the motor works and lets me color pack with less trauma.

      @@ShadowCasterTattoo hey brother, I haven’t tried anything under 0 as I thought it was meant to hit softer? I will test -1, -2 on my next tattoo. I have a fast hand speed, and I’m slowing down as I’m packing with the M1, but it still comes out patchy.

      @@Camera728 I did the same because I was used to machine pens with zero give. I use 4.5 +1 +2 for lining. -2 for color/ black and -1 for shading. Give or take depending on the skin.

    From my understanding, the M modes virtually changes the power of the motor, softest mode m-3 is 1watt motor up to m2 is 12watt motor according to the chart on their instagram.
    Sounds like having 6 different motor strengths, 6 cam options, so basically 36 machines, in one.
    Multiple grip and weight options.
    I agree, it feels like its alot of money for just one machine, but it's like buying a supercar, if you can afford it, why the hell not lol.

    To properly understand this machine, several factors need to be taken into account. The relationship between motor power/torque, stroke length, and speed must be perfect, which can only be achieved with some experience. It is true that the machine has a smooth hit, but this is not due to the motor, which is more than sufficiently strong, but most likely due to the drive heads not being heavy enough. This is actually good news because it can and should be easily corrected by Acus. With that said, I can trace with any type of needle on this machine on a higher stroke, 4.1mm for example or even 5mm, and when the work is just lines or dotwork, I use the 5mm stroke.

    Kia ora e Tuakana.
    The cam is your problem being at 3mm so try the 4.5mm cam and if you wanna line... try th 5mm Cam...beill need to buy that one! BUT you got three machines in one.

    Also, the hz is more accurate than volts. The motor is also better adjusted. On other machines the strokes create different distances on their power. So 3cam on 8 volts will go faster than 5cam on 8 volts because the travel
    Distance is longer between 3 and 5. With the acus the travel distance is the same. The motor spins faster on larger cams. 1hz is 1 hz. Be it 3 cam 4.1 or 5. U keep your hand speed. You keep your hand pressure. Whatever needle, whatever cam. Just learn to use it. U can push a 14 RL on the 4.1 cam with +m2 or use a 5cam with m0. Same speed. Same strength. Same hz. And 1.2k expensive? Chris? Bishops is 1.5k. For 1 cam. Cheyennes is also 1.2k. Get used to your cam so u don’t need to change cam. U can do smooth b&g with the 4.5 cam and fine line just by adjusting the torque. And fat like pack crazy black by increasing it. I own 2. Just 1 as a back up.

    Literally the EZ PRO 3 Turbo is $250 and its way way better machine than this machine believe it or not . I have this Machine and the Flux Max both are always in a drawer , incredibly 1k machines with many gadgets but don’t perform better than a $250 China made machine

      I had never seen this EZ PRO turbo machine, until now. Love that it can be taken apart also and cleaned properly, one feature that I love about the M1. Love the adjustable stroke of the EZ too, but one thing about the M1 is being able to adjust the wattage of the motor, that is the best part to me. I will have to give this EZ PRO turbo a shot though. Not much on the looks of it, but who cares if it performs well.

    • @dominickwilkes2662
      @dominickwilkes2662 Před 15 dny

      False! I have both machines, and the turbo is inconsistent. Don’t get me wrong I love it but it’s not even a fair fight vs the M1. When you put the turbo on 5.0 it bust through membranes back to back not to mention how far you have to hang the needle out to tattoo. Long story short it’s not a crazy versatile machine but lining and some black fill color packing comes out patchy and I’ve tried it on multiple settings, but to each their own I always us the M1
