hi, I also have the 4.2 Prime and feel the same as you. I was disappointed with the lining, otherwise it is very good. I'm going to get the Wand packer. ✌️
Hey Tyler You should check out the Arx Wave pen part of a collab from renowned artist Xam. Interestingly has the ability to adjust the hertz independently without changing volts. Nice looking machine all in all. 👍🏽
thanks so much for this review! knew you'd be honest. was really hoping this could be a do-it-all machine at the price point but linework is the most important consideration for me. now hoping I can get a deal on a used critical torque or bishop machine to save some money
I appreciate the trust! I’ve been seeing a lot of bishop wands going up for sale lately. Might get lucky with a good price for one of those. Give the ep7+ a look if you are looking for a cheaper pen machine, I’ve been loving that one for mostly everything for a while now
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficialthat's so funny, I literally just happened to see bishop is having a clearance sale and got a great deal on an og bishop packer. Thanks again for the advice!
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficialhave you done a video for the ep7 machine? I couldn’t find it if so. Definitely would love to see a video review for it, and why you like it. Especially because the price is great. I’ve been trying to find the best all rounder that isn’t $1000+ 😅
@onesixtsttoos I have the Bishop Packer..packed a punch and perfect for lining and color packing… I also have two Spektra Xions …3.2 and 3.7…I want to sell one and purchase the Prime pen 3.5 with the two batteries for shading…also love the idea of being able to use the critical batteries with the Bishop via the adapter…thoughts??
It didn’t say that in the product description or I would have. I actually have gotten rid of this machine because it broke on me already. About a month after this review
Please try and review the new Ambition Soldier max, been using my bishop wand for years and just purchased this little machine …. I was very impressed!
Tyler love the content on your channel! I appreciate the hard work and your time. I see your dual lights in the back, I’m planning to purchase one. Worth it?
Would love to see a video about your thoughts on battery grips like the Peak Forge or the Inkclaw Phoenix. They seem like a cool idea, but ive seen a lotta other artists concerned with the sterilization of them. Would love to know your thoughts on em :)
@bigmikecampos...love the reviews, have you done a review on MUMMY tattoo pen..went to a tattoo convention and seen the Bishop power wand in use by many artists, very smooth machine.
I'm liking this machine. Especially that it comes with critical batteries. In your opinion would you purchase this if you already own the OG Bishop Shader and the OG Mast Flip? I really want this machine but I have a feeling it'd be redundant to grab right now as I'm nowhere near rich to say the least lol
To be honest it’s not going to do much more than those machines you already have. those two machine you have are shader/color packers. If you are looking for a liner check out the 4.2 torque, Ava EP7+, or vlad blad avenger 2 or 3.
Hey thanks a lot, great review! I wanted to buy the Equaliser Neutron wireless PEN V2, is the PRIME x CRITICAL a better deal/quality-build/long-lasting machine in your opinion? Need to do packing/lining. Thanks by advance for your feedback! If anyone here use the Equaliser Neutron i'm curious if you have feedbacks.
I just bought mine brotha For my first pen I’m a beginner at 4.2 stroke cause I heard they hit softer do you think it was a good buy what’s your thoughts on the swash plate it’s not to late to exchange for FK Irons Edge X or Injekta Eclipse please let me know which one you think would be best all rounder 🤙🏼
I’ve been really liking the critical torque. The 4.2 and 5m are both cool. I’ll have a review out on the 5mm next week I think. I already have one of the 4.2. If you want something a little cheaper the Ava ep7+ has been awesome for me. I have a review on that as well. I have a discount code for that also.
What’s up brother? Hope you’re doing well and the business is great! Wish I had instagram, next time I come home I’ll have to visit your shop to get some first hand. 😂. Mast archer is what I’m using. I’ll have to pick this up. Great one sir!
D_inkkss My favorite I would have to say that I would love to have is probably the bishop on Packer and the one that I use today is the OG produce pioneer good luck to who gets the stickers. I’m definitely a sticker guy I have stickers everywhere. If you had to choose between the prime pen, or a bishop packer, or liner or shader, which one would you choose?
It would depend on what tattoo I was doing. I also haven’t tried the packer or shader. I only have used the liner. But I have heard the packer is the best all around machine out of the wand series.
i have the machine aswell in 3.5 very good shader, super light, super cheap. It's a little bit funny sound because of the motor but yea whocares haha :D i like it tho!
@Pain.is.power.tattoos My fave is the Bishop Wand Packer, i have all three but i use the packer the most for everything. Thanks for the videos and giveaway!
I’ve never gotten a Cheyenne machine before. I think I never got into them because they didn’t have rca it was a 3.5 and I didn’t want to buy another cable lol But the wireless machines they have look nice
@sleepywitchink and my fave machine is the flux but its my only machine so so thats probably why
As long as you like it that’s all that matters!
You win the stickers! I sent you a message on IG
hi, I also have the 4.2 Prime and feel the same as you. I was disappointed with the lining, otherwise it is very good.
I'm going to get the Wand packer. ✌️
Yeah lining isn’t great with it. Oh nice! I’ve heard alot of people liking the packer.
Hey Tyler

Interestingly has the ability to adjust the hertz independently without changing volts.
Nice looking machine all in all. 👍🏽
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll give it a look

Sure you can use those batteries on any machine with an rca jack
2:00 it’s a Japanese motor but it’s actually a bishop motor. Surprised you didn’t add that in there. I think that’s a huge selling point imo.
It didn’t say that in the product description or I would have.
I actually have gotten rid of this machine because it broke on me already. About a month after this review
Hi Tyler, which tattoo machine would you recommend entry level that can do both Lining and shading that’s budget friendly
I would like you to do a review on the Acus M1 as well. It is the most versatile tattoo machine on the market.
I would like to get my hands on one for sure
Please try and review the new Ambition Soldier max, been using my bishop wand for years and just purchased this little machine …. I was very impressed!
Hi! Thanks for your reviews, I like the honesty, it helps to choose what to buy or not. Would you do a review on the Stigma Force?!
Tyler love the content on your channel! I appreciate the hard work and your time. I see your dual lights in the back, I’m planning to purchase one. Worth it?
Glad you are liking it ! :)
@the.vices my favourite so far is actually this critical prime pen in the 3.5 mm stroke
i have 1 month experience and i just bought this in 3.5mm hopefully this is a good beginner tattoo
I really love this machine, but I really got it because the disposable tubes but they never in stock ….
Would love to see a video about your thoughts on battery grips like the Peak Forge or the Inkclaw Phoenix. They seem like a cool idea, but ive seen a lotta other artists concerned with the sterilization of them. Would love to know your thoughts on em :)
I did one on the ink claw battery grip a while ago. I feel the same about all of those battery grips. I haven’t seen one that I’m excited about yet
@kevin_f_daly
Bishop og wand shader
Have you done a review on the inkclaw dagger or what is your experience/ thoughts on inkclaw machines?
I did a review on the inkclaw battery grip but that’s it
I know you don’t like peak needles but could you try out their new cartridges called stellar? Can’t find anyone with a decent review on them. Thanks!
I’ve tried the peak quartz, blood, and triton needles and they have been the worst. Maybe the 4th try will work haha
What lining pen machine would you recommend for the same round about price as the prime?
The OG bishop wand packer or liner, or the Ava ep7+
@bigmikecampos...love the reviews, have you done a review on MUMMY tattoo pen..went to a tattoo convention and seen the Bishop power wand in use by many artists, very smooth machine.
Glad you like them!
I haven’t tried the mummy, but a few people have suggested it. Would love to give it a shot
Can you try to get the Centri MP5 Tactical machine? Would love a review on it!
I’ll give it a look!
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial Sweet! Can’t wait 💯
Do you know if the critical foot connects to the prime battery?
My guess is no.. but give the website a look.
I'm liking this machine. Especially that it comes with critical batteries. In your opinion would you purchase this if you already own the OG Bishop Shader and the OG Mast Flip? I really want this machine but I have a feeling it'd be redundant to grab right now as I'm nowhere near rich to say the least lol

If you are looking for a liner check out the 4.2 torque, Ava EP7+, or vlad blad avenger 2 or 3.
Hey thanks a lot, great review!

If anyone here use the Equaliser Neutron i'm curious if you have feedbacks.
I’ve never used the equalizer before but if you are wanting to line I wouldn’t get the prime.
I would to hear your thoughts on the fold 3 by dragonhawk
I’ll have to give it a look!
I just bought mine brotha For my first pen I’m a beginner at 4.2 stroke cause I heard they hit softer do you think it was a good buy what’s your thoughts on the swash plate it’s not to late to exchange for FK Irons Edge X or Injekta Eclipse please let me know which one you think would be best all rounder 🤙🏼
It really depends on what style you are doing to tell you the truth.
I haven’t tried those other machines so sorry I can’t be a help
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial I want to be a Jack of all trades eventually but Traditional is my strong point right now 💪🏼
I really like punchy machines. What machine do you recommend in a pen style?
I’ve been really liking the critical torque. The 4.2 and 5m are both cool. I’ll have a review out on the 5mm next week I think. I already have one of the 4.2.
If you want something a little cheaper the Ava ep7+ has been awesome for me. I have a review on that as well. I have a discount code for that also.
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial I was fixing to purchase the Bishop Power Wand. I’ll look into the Ava and the Critical Torque before making my purchase.
What’s up brother? Hope you’re doing well and the business is great! Wish I had instagram, next time I come home I’ll have to visit your shop to get some first hand. 😂. Mast archer is what I’m using. I’ll have to pick this up. Great one sir!
Thank you ! You are always welcome to stop by the shop!
Get an IG! Great for marketing :)
How many hours this machine will last at 7v?
No idea honestly. I’ve used it for 5 straight and it still has plenty of juice left
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial nice, i really dig this machine because the mechanisms is similar to Cheyenne pen
Inkjecta flite X1 review would be awesome
I’ve heard of people liking that one!
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial yeah man no one has given an honest review yet
Isn’t it like 2 years old?
Would you get a Cobra?
I’ll look them up!

Nice ! I’m glad you like it :)
HI...Thumb Up
👍🏽
Inkby_alex Microangelo / Acus M1
I’d like to use the m1! I liked the microangelo tho.
@@ThatTattooGuyOfficial I'd love to watch your review on the Acus M1 too!
Who cares
Me
@bricks_and_iron - right now favourite machine is FK Irons Exo.
I haven’t tried the exo yet !
@black_bike_jonny Bishop Wand Liner is the 1
The liner is dope !
RoadDawgg57 and I really enjoy my Ambition Soldier ❤
@wintattooz FK irons flux 👌
@LearnLifeStudio bishop power wand
@Pain.is.power.tattoos
My fave is the Bishop Wand Packer, i have all three but i use the packer the most for everything. Thanks for the videos and giveaway!
Seems like that’s usually the favorite of people for that machine series.
No problem!!
@chill0x.tat and for a favorite I would say the avenger pro 2 but just gave another chance to the wand packer
@alaba613 Bishop Wand Packer. Thanks Tyler!
Absolutely!
@moon_and_stars_ink cheers
I would love to hear your opinion on pretty much a classic: the Cheyenne Sol Nova Unlimited 🫶
I’ve never gotten a Cheyenne machine before. I think I never got into them because they didn’t have rca it was a 3.5 and I didn’t want to buy another cable lol
But the wireless machines they have look nice
