I picked up the Ambition C1 Tattoo Kit as an affordable way to start practicing, and I’m impressed with what you get for the price.Build & Design:The machine feels solid in the hand — not cheap or flimsy. The weight is well-balanced, and the wireless design means no cords getting in the way. The included power supply holds a charge long enough for multiple practice sessions.Performance:Smooth, consistent operation with minimal vibration. It runs quietly, which helps when focusing on line work and shading. The kit comes with practice skin and a range of needles, so you can get started right out of the box.Ease of Use:Very straightforward to set up, even for a beginner.

Reliable, comfortable, and beginner-friendly — just upgrade the ink when you’re ready to do serious work.

On the whole this is an excellent tattoo kit and I recommend it - the pen itself alone is excellent and feels incredibly premium, and overall the whole kit including the case feels great to use.This kit includes all kinds of extras that are pretty standard in kits - ink caps, skins, non-human-safe practice ink, transfer paper, 2 needle types, 2 pieces of fake practice skin, and some other accessories. The pen itself is the main star of the show, with a very premium feel to it; it's not just made of metal but it feels better than most tattoo pens I've used so far. On top of that it's very quiet while it's working, even at high voltages that turn most machines into noise-machines. The pen has separately adjustable stroke lengths (how much the needle moves up and down) and throw (how far the needle goes out of the cartridge), and they all seem to work perfectly. There practice skins work fine for learning and practicing basic techniques, and the ink caps are very nice, they're square-sided and can fit into an electronic ink mixing machine - plus they're in sterilized bags. There are also two sets of twenty tattoo needles, of 1003RL and 1013RM varieties. On top of that, the case for the pen and the whole kit is just very nice overall, a hard-shell case that's easy to carry with the handle!Now, there are some downsides; they're minor but they exist all the same. The ink is only for use in fake skin, and it's a small amount so you'll want more of it soon. Same goes for the skin, it's functional but not equal to the big brand-name skins, but they cost a significant amount of this whole kit on their own. The silicone O-ring replacements are a nice idea but I have no ide where they go, and the instruction manual specifically doesn't list this machine or have one exactly like it, nor say anything about where the O-rings should go. There is a kind of 'product specifications' page separately but it this machine isn't listed in the "Product Manual". Finally, the skins are more yellow than I would have preferred, like "early jaundice" yellow, and that struck me as a weird choice.* I only review things that I personally use myself and continue to use regularly.* I always give my full, honest, unbiased and unfiltered opinion on everything I review.* I will not hold back or avoid describing any issues I have with a product.* I write exactly what I think about things - the good, the bad, and everything in between.* If I get multiple of something it's because I regularly use and need both of them.* And, I will update my review if something breaks, stops working as intended, or otherwise doesn't hold up as expected.

Ambition C1 Tattoo KitThis is a great tattoo machine & kit.Other than the included ink, which is not fit for use on “live canvases”, I was very impressed with the contents of the kit.The case in particular was most impressive . It is the larges and most useful case I have ever received with a tattoo kit. Everything fits well within the case and is not cramped like the majority of cases included in many kits, which are so small everything is crammed into the case that the case is bulging and the zipper is strained. You could likely use this one case to carry all essential items to and from your work location!The 2 included skins are the better thicker variety , which can be used effectively on both sides.The cartridges supplied in the kit worked well, without excessive spitting or pooling when used. The cartridges also come in a convenient reusable plastic case . This is the first time I have ever encountered this, normally cartridges only come in a flimsy card paper container which is easily ruined. I feel these two more rugged containers help with organization, by providing a safer, more secure way to store your needles.The machine is a nice machine, with an adjustable stroke. This is a fantastic feature, allowing this one machine to be used for a wide variety of tattooing styles. The machine comes with 2 batteries, and if that was not good enough, it also comes with an RCA adapter, so the machine can be used with a corded power supply (something I actually prefer normally.) as well! During my tests, the machine performed well both with batteries, and with the RCA adapter. It worked well for lining, shading and packing color. The only thing I would change about the machine: I think it could benefit from some grip modifications to assist with machine stroke adjustment, because being perfectly cylindrical, I found if difficult to get a good enough grip on the machine to adjust the machine stroke, particularly when in the middle of a tattooing session.I have not had the privileged of reviewing a Bishop Packer or any of the other supposedly top tier machines, but out of the 20+ tattoo machine kits I have reviewed, I feel this is currently the 2nd best machine and the best kit I have reviewed to date.4.5 stars.Explaining my rating system:5 - a superior product - I would highly recommend4 - above average – a great choice3 - average – what one might generally expect2 - below average – I would advise seeking an alternative1- Horrible – a waste of your valuable money - avoid if at all possible
