This is an original Cheyenne adapter cable with one 6.3 mm jack end and the other 3.5 mm jack end. Its role is to connect a Cheyenne tattoo machine to a power supply equipped with a 6.3 mm socket, solving the mechanical mismatch between connectors. It is a niche accessory, useful for the artist who already has a power supply or pedal with a 6.3 mm output and wants to use it with Cheyenne equipment. Keep in mind from the start that not every power supply is compatible with Cheyenne machines, even if the plugs fit physically.
How do I know if I need the 6.3 mm to 3.5 mm direction or the reverse version?▾
Look at the plugs. This cable is used to connect the Cheyenne machine to a power supply equipped with a 6.3 mm jack: the large end (6.3 mm, like a guitar plug) goes to the power supply, and the small end (3.5 mm, like a headphone plug) goes to the machine. If your situation is reversed — the power supply has a small output and the equipment has a large input — then you need the reverse version, 3.5 mm to 6.3 mm.
Will any power supply work with my Cheyenne machine if I use this adapter?▾
No. The adapter only solves the mechanical mismatch of the plugs, not the electrical compatibility. The product description explicitly warns that not all power supplies are compatible with Cheyenne machines, and some require a 'Start up Facility' to start. Check your power supply's compatibility before using it in a real session.
What is 'Start up Facility'?▾
It is mentioned in the product information as being necessary for some power supplies to start the Cheyenne machine. If your power supply requires it, follow the instructions of the power supply or machine manufacturer; if in doubt, ask us before purchasing to be sure of your setup.
How do I maintain the cable to make it last?▾
Always disconnect by pulling on the plug, not the cable, keep it loosely coiled, and periodically wipe the connectors with a dry cloth. Avoid tight bends at the base of the connectors and keep the cable away from excessive heat. Since it is an accessory that enters the work area, keep it clean from one session to the next.
How much does it weigh and does anything need to be assembled upon delivery?▾
The cable weighs approximately 20 g and is ready to use — you connect it directly, no assembly required. It is not a consumable product, so you reuse it over time; just take care of the connectors and the cable, as you would with any power accessory.
What warranty does the product have?▾
The cable comes with a 6-month warranty. Additionally, after a warranty repair, you receive an additional 6 months of warranty for the product.
