My provaro Radius w/Kabuki came yesterday....wow! Pictures don't do it justice and that tank really is something special :)

I'm left handed and while I think 'left handed mode' is thoughtful of them, as a lefty, I don't find it very useful because the tank is in the way. A left handed model would probably work better but probably not practical for the company I'm sure.

That all said, I guess I need to buy one of their protective cases now because this thing needs to be used like everywhere and not just at home like I thought I might want to do.

My Radius is mad at me as I cheated on it yesterday. After a few beers and tequilas, I decided I wanted to build my new Velocity Mini RDA. Built it and slapped it on a RX200.... 0.35ohms @ 65w. Nice for a change but my Radius and Classic are getting 90% of my attention.

Congratulations on your new Precious!

I'm trying to visualize using it left handed. How does the tank get in the way?

Never mind, I think I figured it out.

I realized after I wrote it that I probably didn't explain it right. When you view the display while holding with your right, you have the thumb for support on one side of Radius with probably three on the other side and can work buttons with one finger. if you hold it with your left and display reversed, your thumb becomes the digit you use to work buttons so you end up holding the tank with your right for the extra support. no problem, just less user friendly to do one handed in that direction. I'm used to most things build with right handers in mind and quite capable of using it in it's default state :)

I signed up back when they were a kindler gentle nation- that didn't last long! I soon felt like I was amongst 20 yr olds who were having a cussing free for all!
I'm one of the coolest kids on the block but that ish wasn't for me!

I'll never understand why someone who claims to exude so much confidence feels the need to bash to hell another site & their mods just to make themself so important! :facepalm:

!!! G*NOTE FIVE !!!
In a word, sour grapes. Bushels full of sour grapes.
Sorry Robino, I was playing catch up and just now saw your post...

Clean up in isle three...( I know it's supposed to be aisle ;) It's a funny...get it? )

Gilligan, the Skipper too, the Millionaire and his Wife, the Movie Star, the Professor and Mary-Anne didn't think it was so funny. It was only supposed to be a 3 hour tour...

Odd when you think about it. A "3 hour tour" seems like it would be 1.5 hours out and 1.5 hours back. If the storm hit when they were 1.5 hours out, how far could they have possibly been blown off course and still wash up on an isle with everyone alive?
