acctually when i get my new eikon and pulse power supplies id be willing to part with my curent digital . it works great aslong as you have it behind a UPS+VA but an exsperinced artist will get irritated by the voltages fluctuations if its not behind a UPS+VA cause by voltage fluctuations comming from the outlet
a universal power supply with voltage actuator will keep the inbound current at a safe steady level even durin a brown out .
but if your new to tattooing or not in a acctual shop you probably arent gonna notice what im talkign abotu so spending 150 to 300 extra on a UPS+VA would be kinda overkill at this point
