For tattoo work, start with P3 Pro when you want both the 2.0 mm shorter end and 4.2 mm longer end. Fold Pro offers smaller steps within 2.4–4.2 mm. For a PMU-focused setup, U1 keeps six settings within 2.0–3.5 mm.
Choose P3 Pro when the shorter 2.0 mm end is part of your intended working range; choose Fold Pro when 0.3 mm steps within 2.4–4.2 mm suit the adjustments you want. For the separate P6 and P6 Turbo platforms, our tattoo machine stroke comparison explains their own ranges and controls, then links to the exact models and power packages.
P3 Pro — our starting choice for a broad stroke range
Move between lines, shading and colour with one wireless pen. P3 Pro offers six settings from 2.0 to 4.2 mm, so you can switch from shorter to longer travel without changing machines. Start with Pen + Extra Power to keep a charged module ready to rotate between appointments. Choose Pen for shorter sessions with time to recharge.
Choose Fold Pro when smaller steps between stroke positions help you refine a familiar setup. Its seven positions run from 2.4 to 4.2 mm in 0.3 mm steps, while the screen keeps voltage, battery level and elapsed time in view. Choose two batteries for rotation.
Choose U1 for PMU detail, contours and shading with six defined stroke settings from 2.0 to 3.5 mm. Return to a familiar position as the working task changes. The two-battery package gives you a charged spare ready to rotate.
