What is the power supply for the tattoo?
The power supply for the permanent make-up machine is a device that transforms the alternating current from a household electrical network to a permanent one. This is its main function, which can be provided by the simplest model. But in addition, the power supply supports the required voltage supplied to the machine and filters the network interference, which as a result increases the accuracy and accuracy of the wizard’s work, and protects the machine from overload.
The most advanced models also provide additional features and options:
- Memory function. It allows you to remember the latest model of the machine, connected to the block (or a few of the last). This significantly reduces the cost of wizard time - every time the machine is re-connected, the block automatically «adjusts» to its parameters.
- Time counter. This feature ensures accuracy in the calculation of time spent on a session, taking into account pauses or without them. This helps the wizard to optimize his work and estimate the cost of the session.
- Presence/absence of display. The simplest models provide LED power indication - the master needs to focus on the number of active LEDs or their color. More complex models are equipped with OLED-display (often with touch control), which displays all the settings set for the current session.

They are more massive and heavy, but indispensable when working with rotary machines, which require a more powerful «start» for swinging the needle. In pulse units, conversion takes place due to magnetic induction - they are more compact and lightweight, but not always compatible with rotor machines, especially high-performance ones.
- By power type. The traditional wired power supply for the tattoo machine requires constant connection to the network, which can be uncomfortable in a small working space, especially if it is already «filled» with wires and cables. Wireless Tattoo Unit is the new gold standard in the permanent makeup industry, as it allows not only to work without problems in the off-site mode, but also not to interrupt the session in case of emergency situations on the power line or blackout. Modern wireless models are quite compact and light, which eliminates excessive loads for the master.
