Has anyone heard of this make before?
What do the experts make of this listing?
I just want to start with galvanic and move to blend.

You can rest assured, that is a real machine.
Bid with confidence.
Do get your books, and read them cover to cover while you are waiting for the item to arrive. At minimum get the Bono Book and or, the Mehard/Richards book.
Great, thanks James.
I couldn’t find any info on it via Googling - it’s not listed on the hairfacts page either.
It looks like a good listing, seems that everything is included, instruction manual too.
I had become tired waiting for a used sterex machine - they seem to be sold by people with no feedback and hence my reluctance to bid.
I have located a Bono book, which shall be my train reading. I shall look into the other too.
I am thinking that if I buy this machine, I shall stop with laser on my legs even if there is enough hair to warrant another treatment - it will save me money to do electrolysis on myself, no? I do hope that will be possible, just on the shins and front of thighs.
Also, I only see my sister on the weekends, so this way I can practice on weekdays too.
On a student’s first day in class, many have a probe thrust in their hands and are prodded into probing their leg hairs. One quickly gets feedback on what a good and bad insertion feels like both for the client, and the practitioner. If one can internalize this bio-feedback, one can gain the touch for doing the work on someone else, and recognizing how the probe reacts when it is doing the wrong thing. One would also anticipate the “OUCH!” and jerking movement of the victim, er, uh, client.
I believe you will do well. Just do see about getting the best vision equipment you can afford. It really makes a difference. Our friend VickyCNY actually has a better set up than many pro with a shingle outside advertising their services. (and does better work than many) At this point in the game, she could pass anyone’s electrolysis exam, or licensing exam, too bad, most would not allow her to sit for the exam due to her lack of having paid thousands to “certify” her training by paying the “right people” for her books and lectures and doing indentured service to someone else during her learning days.
Hehe, thanks James.
I think for now I will invest in modest magnification (for the legs) and will purchase better equipment when the time finally arrives that I can start tackling tougher areas.
What would you recommend? Ok, I just read one of your other posts suggesting a 3 diopter circle lamp, so I will have a look for that.

I also messaged the seller. She said the machine was more complicated than the Sterex ones and I would need to pay close attention to everything in the instruction manual, which I planned to do anyway.
Lets is the only thing that I would say can be done well enough with a circle lamp. The one you have linked to, however, is a drafting lamp. They are designed to be set up, and not do much movement from that point. Electrolysis circle lamps are moved and pulled every which way all the time. This would break on you in 6 months or less of actual use. The good news is that a used one shipped from the US would be less than the $150USD that one of these would cost retail here in the states.
Thank you James. Sorry to be a pain but could you link me to the type of lamp I should be looking for? Sorry!
James, now now I don’t know if I am quite that good, that is very kind of you to say you are very kind.
Here is an example of lamps used for electrolysis

TES has a variety of suitable lamps, and they do ship overseas. They have them listed in the PDF version of their print catalog which you can download on their site.

Here is a nice find on eBay, a BRAND NEW Apilus Senior II, a Dazor circle lamp with floor casters, a portable treatment table, some jars, tweezers and other supplies (and a sterilizer too I think), all for an opening bid of $1500. Even though the auction has a reserve, if I wanted this I would bid anyway, they might give it to you for less than their reserve if they are eager to get rid of it.

Thanks Vickie but I am in the UK so these machines are out of my reach
Thank you also for the lamp links, I shall look into them.
I have just bought the Probex machine.
