Pulseroll Mini vs Ignite Mini

In this Pulseroll Mini vs Ignite Mini review, we will compare the first and second generation mini massage guns from the popular Manchester, England-based company.

As indicated by its name, the newer version includes a unique heated attachment for problematic muscles and tightness. But other than that, the two devices look relatively similar. So how do they differ, and which one is the better fit for your needs?

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

Comparison: Pulseroll Mini vs Ignite Mini

Amplitude

With an amplitude of 8 mm, the Pulseroll Mini and Ignite Mini are a great choice for a relaxing massage during office breaks or a quick sweep over your forearms while on the golf course. For a deep-tissue treatment, you might want to opt for the Pulseroll Pro or Ignite Pro instead.

Force

In terms of stall force, however, the two mini massage guns do not have to hide from their bigger competitors. The motor inside the Pulseroll Mini and Ignite Mini only reaches its limit at around 40 lbs of pressure, making them as powerful as some of the normal-sized devices on the market.

Frequency & Speed Levels

Starting at 1,800 percussions per minute (ppm) each, the Pulseroll Mini and Ignite Mini also share their upper limit of 3,000 ppm. In total, there are four different speed levels available, allowing you to adjust the frequency to your liking.

Connectivity

Neither the first nor second generation mini massage gun from Pulseroll can be connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth. If you would like to be guided through recovery routines developed by professionals, be able to keep track of past sessions, and more, consider the Theragun mini 2.0.

Battery

The Pulseroll Ignite Mini now runs for up to 6 hours, doubling the battery life of its predecessor. That said, with each treatment not taking more than a few minutes, even the Mini should last for several days on a single charge.

Noise

The Pulseroll Mini operates at a maximum noise level of just 59 decibels (dB). We will add the corresponding number for the Ignite Mini as soon as the results are in, but expect it to be even lower considering the impressive noise reduction achieved by the Ignite Pro.

Attachments & Accessories

To allow you to adjust the massage experience to your needs, the Pulseroll Mini ships with four interchangeable attachments. The Ignite Mini comes with two additional heads, including the heated one giving it its name. A case ensures that everything stays organized and protected.

Weight & Dimensions

In the final round of this Pulseroll Mini vs Ignite Mini comparison, we will have a quick look at the weight and dimensions of the two devices. Weighing just 600 g each, both models also share their length of 10 cm, width of 4 cm, and height of 14 cm.

Conclusion: Pulseroll Mini vs Ignite Mini

Perhaps a bit surprisingly, the first generation Pulseroll Mini managed to keep up with its successor in most categories. In fact, if you are willing to overlook the shorter battery life and less head attachments, it provides an otherwise similar performance at a lower price.

If you plan to bring your mini massage gun on extended trips or want to share it with someone else, you will appreciate the doubled battery life of the Pulseroll Ignite Mini. Additionally, there is the unique heated attachment, which can come in handy for problematic muscles and tightness.
