Frame

Our Flite X1 is a lightweight machine, weighing in at 110g (without the battery installed). Smoke is a unique model with a black Stealth-colored frame and semi-opaque smoky gray side covers.

Motor

The Flite X1 employs a custom dual nanotechnology motor.

Operation

Flite X1 is a wireless, battery-operated machine. Equipped with two non-proprietary, cost-efficient batteries, this machine operates for upwards of 8 hours when used with the large 18500 battery and 4 hours when used with the small 18350 one. Flite X1 is the first of our machines to allow fully adjustable speed and voltage with the press of a single button — the very same button that turns the machine on and off. Tattooists can also adjust the needle depth using ergonomic forward and back buttons located on the machine’s body. This means there is no need for an adjustable grip, saving tattooists money in the long run.

Other Features

Flite X1 employs our all-new LED wheel that works as a machine output reader. Tattooists can choose their speed and needle depth settings while using the LED wheel to track their battery life. This LED innovation helps artists listen to their machine and determine optimal speed, needle depth, and voltage settings. Flite X1 is also compatible with all previous Flite Nano grips and cam wheels, allowing tattooists even more configurable options.

Tattoo pigment consists of two parts; the pigment and the carrier. The composition of tattoo pigment varies from brand to brand. Different ink companies use different dispersion methods and different formulas. We believe less filler the better, but that’s up to the artists preference.

Shaking your ink.

Trust us, a fully blended ink is much easier to use and will give you the correct and desired effect. If the ink is allowed to separate and solidify on the bottom of the bottle, you don’t actually get the formulated amount of pigment dispersion. This can reduce the ink’s effective saturation and opacity. When the sediment at the bottom hardens, it can be a nightmare to mix properly, then colour inconsistencies can begin to occur. To ensure your ink has been shaken fully to prevent this; compare the bottom of the bottle to the top, to ensure all pigment has been disbursed correctly. If you see a marbled effect or streaks of colour, keep on shaking.

Another way to keep your inks unspoiled and sediment free is to keep smaller bottles around, especially if it’s a colour you don’t use often. Take time and think how often a pigment gets used before you decide how much to order. Your ink is less likely to have a lot of settling if it’s not around for long. We’re a fan of small bottles. They’re easier to store, cost less, take up less space, are easy for the artist to travel with and it encourages an artist to keep their ink supply fresh and health board compliant. 

Remember:

Shake your inks often to prevent separation.

Wear gloves when handling open ink bottles.

Wipe down bottles after use to prevent cross contamination.

Ensure lid is tightened snugly or clicked into place after use.

Do not leave ink bottles on work you space during tattoo procedure.

Store below 30 degrees and above freezing.

Do not store in direct sunlight.

Use within 12 months of opening. 

Nitty Gritty

We do our best to provide high quality images of each ink, but every device has its own resolution, so please note colours may vary from device to device. Its why we opened our retail locations.

Due to the uncertainty of ink once it leaves our stores, all ink sales are final.
