Complete guide: Power Supply Micro Black
An ultra-compact power supply for tattoo machines, with a matte black aluminum metal casing and fine voltage adjustment via a rotary potentiometer. At only 120 grams, it fits in the palm of your hand and in any equipment bag, designed for artists working with rotary or pen machines — either as a main power source in a small studio, or as a reliable backup at conventions and on the go.
How to use
- Connect the included external adapter to the main unit, then to the power outlet. Thanks to the 90V–265V input, the power supply works on a wide range of mains voltages.
- Connect the RCA clipcord to the power supply and to your tattoo machine. The standard RCA connector ensures compatibility with most rotary and pen machines on the market.
- Apply disposable protective barriers (film or cover) over the power supply and potentiometer before starting work with the client.
- Turn on the power supply and set the voltage using the rotary potentiometer, starting from a low value. The adjustment range is 1.25V–17V.
- Test the machine idle for a few seconds and fine-tune the voltage until you achieve the desired operation, according to your machine manufacturer's recommendations.
- Between clients or when changing technique, quickly adjust the voltage using the potentiometer — over the protective barrier, not directly on the casing.
- At the end of the session, turn off the power supply, disconnect it from the outlet, remove the barriers, and wipe the casing surface with a disinfectant wipe. Do not spray liquids directly on the unit.
Tips from us
- Use an RCA clipcord with a 90-degree plug — on such a small power supply, it reduces mechanical stress on the connector and lowers the risk of damage to the plug over time.
- Power the supply exclusively with the original adapter included in the package; an unsuitable adapter may affect operation and void the warranty.
- Note down the voltage settings that work well for each machine in your setup — with a rotary potentiometer, you can return to them much faster.
- Keep it as a permanent backup in your convention bag: at 120 g and pocket size, you won't feel the weight, and a spare power supply saves you if the main one fails in the middle of a job.
- The matte black finish hides fingerprints and wear marks, but it's still worth wiping after each work day to prevent ink residue buildup.
- If you work with high-power coil machines, choose a standard-size power supply — the micro format is optimized for rotary and pen machines.
Frequently asked questions
Is it compatible with any tattoo machine?▾
The power supply has a standard RCA connector, so it connects to most rotary and pen machines on the market. It is optimized for these types of machines; coil machines usually require a higher current than the ultra-compact format can provide, so for coil machines a standard-size power supply is recommended. The output is 18V 1.5A, with adjustable voltage between 1.25V and 17V.
Can I use it as a main power supply or only as a backup?▾
Both options are valid. If you work exclusively with rotary or pen machines, it can be your everyday main power supply — many artists use it that way, especially in small studios or at conventions where workspace is limited. At the same time, the miniature size and 120 g weight make it an ideal backup that doesn't take up space in your bag.
What voltage should I set for my machine?▾
The correct voltage depends on the machine used and the working technique, not on the power supply — consult your machine manufacturer's recommendations. Basically, you start from a low value and gradually increase using the rotary potentiometer until the machine runs properly, testing idle before working on skin. The adjustment range of 1.25V–17V covers the usual needs of rotary and pen machines.
How do I sanitize the power supply after a tattoo session?▾
The basic rule is prevention: cover the power supply and potentiometer with disposable barriers (protective film) during work and change them between clients. After the session, turn off the power supply, unplug it, remove the barriers, and wipe the metal casing with a surface disinfectant wipe. Do not spray liquid directly on the unit or connectors — liquids can penetrate the electronic components.
Does it work on foreign outlets if I go to a convention?▾
Yes, the 90V–265V input covers the mains voltage ranges used in most countries, making it suitable for international travel. Depending on the country, you may only need a physical plug adapter for the wall socket. Always use the original power adapter supplied with the power supply.
What cable do I need to connect it to the machine?▾
You need an RCA clipcord, which connects directly between the power supply and the machine. A practical detail: on such a compact power supply, a clipcord with a 90-degree plug reduces mechanical stress on the connector and is more convenient to position on the work table. Choose a quality clipcord — stable contact means consistent machine operation throughout the job.
