 Product Comparison (Tone-A-Matic-Competitors)


Your Safety is our Concern

Our Competitors SMM and Power STIM models DO NOT HAVE THE SAFETY FEATURE AND CAN POTENTIALLY HARM YOU !!! WHY TAKE A CHANCE !!! Even when at 0, the machine is still ON. It is like leaving your car in the Drive Mode all the time!! Dangerous ! All our Tone-A-Matic Systems have the SAFE START features! Any reputable manufacture can NEVER omit an important feature as safe start!!! All superior EMS units have it!!!

Our power Engineering Technology
Our Competitors have been selling 9V EMS units and have been offering them to be a 12 volt system. Their 9V Units can only produce a 9V - 300MA power, no matter how big an A/C adapter they put on them. They give you a 12V or 15V adaptor but in reality, they may fail because they have been fed the wrong adaptor. Don't be fooled by their claim of 12 or 15 Volts. Even their15 Volts can only give you 900MA of power. Go figure that out!!!

Tone-A-Matic's Philosophy of CONTINUOUS ENGINEERING IMPROVEMENTS guarantees you of our best efforts. We do not recycle old machines, over and over again like our competition. We spend our resources on Research and Development !! When was the last time our competitor manufactured or introduced a new model? Not in the last 15 years. If you don't believe us, we can prove it to you!!! We now can offer you the choice of using rechargeable battery on your EMS Units. Due to our recently developed patented engineering, we can install a rechargeable sealed battery for a fee. This is the same technology of a car battery that starts your car.

However, we also give you the other option. Our 12/16 v produces 1200 Milliamps of power. The Milliamps is what matters BECAUSE that is the output current. Their 12 or 15 volt can only output 900 MA. Which is more powerful 900 MA or 1200 MA?

Tone-A-Matic latest models come equipped with our own special patented design to make them truly portable. Our 12 or 16 V 1200 MA EMS units that has been internally engineered by our own design experts to give you the same power by using portable store type batteries that are rechargeable but you don't have to spend extra for it. This is because we make our own mold, so we can and have used the latest Digital and microprocessor to deliver superior products. Everything from TV, Car, Computer, Camcorder, Watches (very tiny batteries) are now very portable and uses Digital and microprocessor technology to move forward. Tone-A-Matic is proud to belong to the family of "Product of Tomorrow Delivered Today". We will and must always improve on our success!!!

Our competitions Power STIM 12 or 15 R and Tone-A-Matic's P-STIM 12R are exactly the same units. However, our competitor in their website and in their ads claims to be the manufacturer. They are again misleading the public.
The P-STIM model is a good machine, However our DT and TDR units obviously have more features and has the latest technology. We know, because we sell both. Our competitor would have you believe otherwise. The truth and proof is presented to you here. You be the Judge!!!

The same old machine recycled by competitor
The latest gimmick by our competitor is to go into the archive and resurrect old machines that have been discontinued decades ago! If you like this old typewriter style unit we have some still available in our warehouse and we would be happy to get rid of them at a low discounted price (The EE 500). Why would you want 80's style analogue plastic typewriters style units with very little features? Again please notice that they deliberately omitted the actual specifications and features of this EMS dinosaur! - Don't be fooled!!! 


No Adjustable Contraction
No TENS

EE 200

EE 400

EE 500

Also, our competitors EE 400 is not an EMS machine. It is actually a TENS machine. It does not contract muscle, it only taps the muscle. You can not adjust the contraction time!!! Again, the EE 400 briefcase TENS model sold by our competitors has been discontinued, but if you want it, we can give it to you at a discounted price!!! If you want a solid, powerful machine with the best features and prices, click here to go to our product page. We are the best in the Business!!!

Trust and Reliability
It comes down to a question of trust and reliability. Our competitors claim to have been in the business over 15 years, however ask yourself why they changed their name and phone number several time in these years -> i.e. Executive Fitness, California Muscle Machine Company, Wholesale Muscle Stimulator Co., Body Builder Int. and again back to Executive Fitness. Tone-A-Matic Int. on the other hand has maintained the same name and phone number for 15 years. We are solid and reliable and stand behind our name and products. As you know any warranty is only as good as the company you purchase your unit from. Our famous two brands TAMEXXTM and TAMTECTM series are top quality and have received high praises from the public and professionals. We are a solid American-Canadian company!!!

The longer the Contraction, the more muscle you can build. Shorter contraction is for toning muscle only. our units have the longest Contraction and relaxation in the market. Just like Mercedes and Rolls Royce have all the bell and whistles, the features are there if and when you need it. Expensive and powerful cars have speedometers over 250MPH. you don't use it on city streets, but on the highways and track lookout.

Competitors
30 sec contraction

Tone-A-Matic
90 sec contraction

  • Contraction Time: only 3-30 sec.

  • Relaxation Time: 1-50 sec.

  • Any higher end muscle stimulator has the option of a longer contraction

  • Contraction Time: Adjustable 1-90 sec

  • Relaxation Time: Adjustable 1-95 sec.

  • You have the option of either longer or shorter contraction time

  • The longer the contraction & relaxation time the better it is for building muscle - ask any trainer - see chart

  • Charlie Francis Testosterone magazine

  • It's like the speed-o-meter in your car - It has range of up to 350 mph. You have the option of driving at what speed limit you like!!!

Competition 
SMM & Power STEM
No safety features

Tone-A-Matic
Has safety features

  • No safety features

  • Can potentially shock you & this could be dangerous

  • Why would anybody buy a machine without a safety feature?! Why take a chance??

  • All Tone-A-Matic models have a safety feature

  • All intensity controls must be at 0 when unit is turned on otherwise the indication light will come on but no power will come throw the pads

  • Any reputable manufacture has this feature on their machine especially if sold to the public


  • No TENS frequency, only EMS

  • Competitor claims at lower setting you get TENS well the simple truth is that cheaply made items always cut back on features. So what are you paying a high price for ???

 


  • All Tone-A-Matic models have TENS mode as well as EMS function with a separate switch for both.

  • a separate switch is required because TENS is a completely different wave of frequency.

Competitors
Has only 2 &4 channel unit!!
No 6 & 8 channels/controls

Tone-A-Matic
2, 4, 6 & 8 channels & controls

  • Sells the same 4 channel machine as 6 & 8 

  • This has nothing to do with symmetry but it is much cheaper to double up the leads. So why are you paying more - They should only charge for an extra wire & 2 pads

    Click on Picture to buy
    4 in 1 wire

  • If you prefer their machine feel free to purchase a SMM IV and a 4 in 1 wire from Tone-A-Matic at a fraction of the cost. Check our accessories page.

  • As you can see from the picture, our units have independent controls for each muscle group - 2 pads per control or power outlets

  • Each channel has it's own intensity control - The power is individually controlled unlike the competitors, you do not loose power because each channel and control has a separate internal mechanism wired for them.

  • We do not double up for symmetry purpose, mirrored etc. Do not be fooled. They just want to confuse the public.

Competitor's Poor Design
Metal Bar

Tone-A-Matic
No Metal Bar

  • If you open the SMM VI & VIII you will find a large metal bar screwed onto the panel to give the unit more weight

  • Competitors website clams this makes the units more stable

  • Why would you buy a machine that needs a metal weight to make it stable - This is obviously due to poor design - old outdated models.

  • They buy their mold (cases) off the shelf (hence no balance)

  • Our units have a superior design & does not need anything to make it stable

  • Our units are designed and constructed by the best engineers in the world. we also manufacture our own custom made molds (housing) we spend the money for our own research and development in America.

SMM 4, (SO CALLED 6 & 8 CHANNELS)  SMM4000R

  •   As you can see from the pictures on your left our competitors units only goes to 30 seconds contraction and relax unlike the actual advertisement which claims up to 90 seconds contraction and relaxation. The truth is that in order to build muscles, you need a very long contraction and relaxation coupled with a high rate (Hz).  TMS, DT, and TDR models are superior to all other competitors out there.

  •   Our competitors claim SMM units have reciprocating function.  However,  as you can see from pictures in the panel there’s no reciprocating function.  The reciprocating function is a very important element in muscle building.  The Tone-A-Matic TMS, DT models and the TDR models have them.  This feature cuts your workout time in half!!!.

  •   SMM models does not have safety feature and can shock you.  This can be very DANGEROUS!.  It does not exactly shut the unit off. You can get shocked even when unit is turned off. All Tone-A-Matic models have safety feature, all units have to be turned to 0 before you can restart it to prevent sudden shock!!!!. 

  •   All Tone-A-Matic units have TENS mode right on the display and can be easily be used.  You actually get 2 machines for the price of one.  SMM models do not have all these superior features regardless of what they claim.

  •   Competitors claim 6 and 8 channel units.  Please see their so called 6 and 8 channel units in the picture on your left.  Do you see any 6 and 8 channel on the panel display?  No.  All you see is the same 4 channel unit, which they sell for 6 and 8 channel.  Why pay more for the same unit, which they peddle for 6 and 8 channel unit?  It doesn’t make any sense.  Go to the pictures on your right and you can see Tone-A-Matic machines with 8 channels controls.  Why are they misleading the public????

  •    Competitors SMM models and EMS4000R are old analog, and they have been claiming otherwise.  Look at at their pictures?  Do you see anything digital in their units?  Not only are our machines digital on the inside but also on the outside.  Judge for yourself!

  •    Our machines are microprocessor controlled, but SMM units are not.  See for yourself!!!  

  •    We sincerely believe that we are more innovative and that our research has proven us correct. We pride ourselves as always being a leader in EMS technology and with our partners worldwide, we try to deliver quality products and good  prices for the consumer as our main focus. We have used a completely new unique mold with each of our series, unlike our competitors.
