First time use of the Powermatic 3

[@Hermitcrab2004]

I want to learn how to roll and your video is very explanatory. Thank you for clearly describing each step.

[@SimplySavvyLife]

I invested in this machine and like it a lot. I would make a recommendation to add a small guiding LED light by the tube insertion point which is lower on the device. Most people will place this in or on a tray , mine is higher than most at 2-3" which creates some depth and shadow but still .. especially if I'm using it in dim lighting , the brightness of the LED screen on top blinds me to the tube insertion point. I'd recommend lowering the brightness of the top screen and adding a small light to illuminate where you put the tube especially because it has to be on there precisely to work. I know you're not the manufacturer but if you sell them maybe you can feed this back to them

[@williamgrissom1995]

I bought one a couple weeks ago and I love mine. It works best with short tobacco shreds and at a certain moisture level. But I buy cheap American club tobacco and I pick out stems and cut the shreds short and it works pretty good for me. It was well worth the $200 plus tax that I paid and rolls fast and I put the cigarettes in my plastic Tube Cut brand packs. I may switch my tobacco brand to full flavored Native all Natural. It's the same as the cartons of cigarettes I use to buy, and I was very happy with them.

I’m thinking about getting the Powermatic 2. I had one of those big metal mechanical one and it worked great. I was real fast at making them

[@felgercarb3803]

Mike Rose -Hi, i had one to, and it broke before reaching 30000 cigs. Pay the xtra money and get the 3. And DO NOT use very fine tobacco.

[@Angie32172]

Thank you for sharing! i started rolling my own smokes in 90's cause i was raising my 2 boys and didn't have alot of money.also if you put a UNPEELED CARROT in your tobacco it will keep it fresh

[@felgercarb3803]

I started rolling in 1982 at the age of 13 since the money from washing the neighbors cars wasn't enough to buy factory cigs. I have not tried the Carrot trick, I always used the Potato trick😊 -Take care.

[@mememe2866]

My machine is jammed ! Tried almost everything,short of tearing it apart,how do I clear the jam ?manual is missing

[@wewanttobefree41]

I put a bottle cap with a piece of sponge in the cap and put a little of water in it and it works well just place it on top of the tobacco I keep my tobacco in a container with a snap on lid

[@markhall7222]

I saw a review Dec 27, 2019 and they say and show a setting for 100mm and kings, I think they did an upgrade on this machine, the readout window looks different also

[@imawatermelon1439]

I’m moving to Germany in a month! Where is the best place to buy cigarette tubes? I know you said Aldi, but I don’t have one near my area. Will Rewe have them, last time I was there I just bought packs didn’t roll them myself.

[@matthewrendle9321]

I’m sure if I should say this but I found Venting tubes the best ones for these machines in australia post and handling $400.00 dollars for it

[@wewanttobefree41]

try packing the tobacco a little bit pack packing it in both ends also I use a hawk matie and it works very well

[@matthewrendle9321]

Just wondering why the power mate when making cigarettes it gets near the end and hopper keeps coming on i really appreciate your help in this matter my REGARDS MATTHEW RENDLE

Hi. What is the shelf life of the cigarette tubes? I wanna buy a case but wonder if the glue would eventually give loose...

I would love to have one

Hvilken tobak syntes du er bedst at rulle med på den maskine

[@MasterDk78]

Hey :) Nu er den her vid jo lidt gammel, men kan godt lide hvad jeg ser! Jeg har haft købt en billigere version til at prøve det ud. Men sikke en fiasko, for gløden falder af, gør det næsten livs-farligt. Hvad er din erfaring med din maskine? Er den god?

[@felgercarb3803]

MasterDk78 -Jeg har kun oplevet at gløden falder af hvis der har sneget sig et stort stykke tobak med ind i cigaretten. Jeg synes at naskinen er så god at jeg har overvejet at købe en xtra i tilfælde af at DK/EU laver et eller andet lovforslag der gør at sådanne maskiner blir forbudt. Elektriske cigaretmaskiner er faktisk forbudt i Tyskland.

[@MasterDk78]

@@felgercarb3803 forbudt i Tyskland? Lidt underlig regel i mit hoved :) Men okay, tror vist at Trump blev president i usa gjorde han ikke? Verden er gal Tusind tak for dit svar, og dit review a maskinen. Hvis du vil anbefale mig en side hvor man kan købe den, så kigger jeg gerne

[@felgercarb3803]

MasterDk78 -Det er fordi at det ikke må være for let at rulle selv så den Tyske stat går glip af alt for mange cigaret skatter. Jeg har købt min hos luxfux.lu og lige nu her i maj 2020 koster den 260,-€

How much is it

[@REDBACK333]

Hi mate can you please tell me how much moisture in % you tobacco used 10% moisture or less or more dan 10%

[@felgercarb3803]

REDBACK Hi there. I have no idea what the moisture is in %. I think it is about the same as the tobacco in a pack of factory cigarettes or maybe even a little bit dryer. Hope this helps.

[@REDBACK333]

@@felgercarb3803 I buy tobacco and moisture off tobacco is around 36-38% to used it with my ROLLO MACHINE need to be dry tobacco between 12-15% if over this machine will bi jammed! Have great day!

What's the best setting

[@felgercarb3803]

Hi. It depends on what you like. Loose or firm rolled cigatettes or if you use moist/wet or dry tobacco. Here is what I found out and use. First of all, I like my cigarettes loose rolled and my tobacco very dry. If i have dry tobacco, I will use setting 3. If i have VERY dry tobacco, I will use setting 4. If i have moist/wet tobacco, I will use setting 2. -Hope this helps and have fun.

[@pro-horsepunter5554]

@@felgercarb3803 sure does thanks

[@maniaque37]

i saw videos about powermatic 2 and this model 3 and i dont see so much difference other than the big price of model 3 and having to push on tobacco a bit with powermatic 2. for the price and when you really want to save on buying cigarettes and roll them instead , spending over 300$ on this machine seems too much to me. the powermatic 2 even looks faster and is less than half the price.

[@TobaccoLeavesStore]

The powermatic 3 is easier, there are people who have mastered the powermatic 2 and can pack at the rates of the powermatic 3+ but the 3+ does 100's and for those of use with arthritis over time the 3+ is much easier on our hands.

[@maniaque37]

@@TobaccoLeavesStore i dont agree with much easier. you still need to push buttons and put tobacco in and put a filter. not much more harder to push a lever up and down. my wife has hand problems and with the powermatic 2 she has no problems at all. for the price is not worth the difference.

[@TobaccoLeavesStore]

@@maniaque37 I know for me(i had shrapnel through my left hand) the PM3+ has been alot easier than the 2. it might be the bigger profile and the hopper, maybe it just works better for my funky hands. i will be honest the PM3+ makes RYO kinda fun and zen for me.

[@Torbajon61]

U should not have to tap a tube after u load it try holding the the filter on tube while the machine packs the tube

[@dslonly]

How much cigarettes can you make in a Minute?

[@felgercarb3803]

dslonly -watch one of my other videos and watch the time it takes to make a few cigs and then scale the time up to minuttes

[@Shanaigins]

What a way over priced machine, the powermatic 2 is still the best bang for your buck and will waste no tobacco, the 3 will jam up once getting to the end of the bag where when using the 2 you can load less of the smaller bits of tobacco not causing a jam and use 100 percent of the bag. There is no way in hell I would buy one of these for so much.

[@felgercarb3803]

Shanaigins You are absolutly right. However the 3 will make your life way more easy. Its just like every thing else here in life. Life is more easy if you got money!!

[@ajgreen868]

Easy fix. Mix the bag up often!

[@teguhsantosoteguhsantoso623]

Mantap

[@JohnBrown-z2u]

I wish mine worked as well as that. It runs and runs and runs, and if you're lucky then it will pack a cigarette that's so tightly packed it's difficult to even smoke it. It's slow and...just bad. Regret buying it.

[@felgercarb3803]

Saddest Chord -Send it in for repair or buy a new one. Im at 28000 cigarettes and have/had no problems. Maybe its because i only use very corse tobacco and therefor dont have any tobacco dust that can get inside the machine.

[@tiredoldman5329]

Where did you get yours? I cannot find one anywhere!
