Kraftgun vs TimTam

In this Kraftgun vs TimTam review, we will compare the two brands’ flagship massage guns against each other.

Can the Kraftgun Force, which is the new and improved version of the original Kraftgun, keep up with the TimTam Power Massager Pro, which is famous for raw power and was co-developed by UFC legend Georges St-Pierre?

This side-by-side comparison will help you find out.

Comparison: Kraftgun Force vs TimTam Power Massager Pro

Amplitude

With the highest amplitude we have come across so far in a massage gun, the TimTam Power Massager Pro comfortably takes the lead in our Kraftgun vs TimTam comparison with a stroke length of 20 mm compared to 14 mm. Even the cheaper TimTam All New Power Massager comes with an amplitude of 16 mm.

Force

Co-developed by MMA coach Firas Zahabi and UFC legend Georges St-Pierre, TimTam’s target customers are fighters who want the most powerful percussive massage possible. But despite the seemingly big 15 lbs difference between the two devices, the stall force of 60 lbs for the Kraftgun is still more than enough for most people.

Frequency & Speed Levels

The TimTam Power Massager Pro offers a wider range of percussion per minute (ppm) from as low as 1,000 up to 2,800. Both devices come with three different speed levels.

Connectivity

Neither the Kraftgun Force nor the TimTam Power Massager Pro can be connected to a smartphone. At the time of writing, this feature is only available in the Hypervolt and Hypervolt Plus, and the Theragun Prime, Elite, and PRO.

Battery

Powered by a high-end battery from Samsung, the Kraftgun Force does its job for up to 3.5 hours. Due to the more powerful motor, it comes as no surprise that the TimTam massage gun would not be able to compete with that. But with a battery life of just 1 hour, it is miles behind the Kraftgun in this category.

Noise

The Kraftgun Force comes out on top with a noise level of around 65 decibels (dB), with the TimTam Power Massager Pro a close second with around 70 dB. Considering that the latter is the way more powerful device, one would have expected the difference to be higher.

Attachments & Accessoires

With the Kraftgun Force having four interchangeable attachments and the TimTam Power Massager Pro only three, why did we score this round a draw? One of those three massage heads is special, as the heated tip with a skin temperature sensor allows for a unique massage experience.

Weight & Dimensions

The final round of our Kraftgun vs TimTam comparison goes to the Power Massager Pro. At just 2.0 lbs, it is extremely lightweight despite being one of the most powerful percussive therapy devices on the market.

Conclusion: Kraftgun Force vs TimTam Power Massager Pro

Although it only really came out on top in this comparison with its vastly superior battery life, the Kraftgun Force is definitely worth considering. With a stall force of 60 lbs, the device is powerful enough for all but the most demanding users, and at the same time only a bit louder than an electric toothbrush.

The problems lie with the company behind the massage gun though, which has been suffering from shipping delays for more than a year now and left buyers waiting for their orders or refunds often for months. If you decide to buy the Kraftgun Force, please do so at Amazon or another reputable retailer.

But even if there weren’t any of those problems, the TimTam Power Massager Pro would be the better choice between those two massagers – of course only if you plan on using with a plug socket always nearby or have no issues with investing in one or two additional batteries.

The higher amplitude, stall force, percussions per minute, and the unique heated massage head are all arguments in favor of the Power Massager Pro. Featuring a 175° articulating arm, the percussive massager is designed for 100% self-use and even comes with a GPS compartment.
