Frequently Asked Questions
Is this battery pack compatible with all tattoo machines with RCA connections?
The EZ Portex PG3 was designed to work with the vast majority of professional tattoo machines that use an RCA connector. The connection is direct, firm, and stable, without any looseness or power loss. If you already use an RCA machine in your studio, compatibility is usually not a problem. Only with very specific or older models might it be necessary to confirm the fit, but for modern setups it's practically plug and play.
How long does the 1100mAh battery last in real-world studio use?
In real-world use, the 1100mAh battery typically lasts between 3 and 5 hours, depending on the voltage used and the type of work. For lines and shading at medium voltages, it adequately covers a full session. It's important to understand that this battery pack was designed for portability and lightness, not for extreme marathons. For many tattoo artists, this is more than enough for everyday use.
Does the EZ Portex PG3 alter the balance or weight of the machine during tattooing?
Very little. At just 36 grams, the Portex PG3 is one of the lightest battery packs on the market. In practice, it doesn't "pull" the machine backward or compromise ergonomics. Most tattoo artists adapt in minutes and even feel the setup is more balanced by eliminating the weight and tension of the cables. For long sessions, this translates to less fatigue in the hand and wrist.
Yes. One of the strengths of the EZ Portex PG3 is the stability of its power delivery. The voltage remains consistent throughout most of the battery cycle, without sudden drops that affect the stroke or the sound of the machine. When the charge starts to run low, the response remains predictable, giving enough time to complete the area or change batteries without surprises mid-job.
Does the voltage remain stable from the beginning to the end of the battery life?
