RCCS-14 first use

[MMW]

I picked up one of these a while ago & just got the chance to use it. It is a north south. It worked like I thought. It takes several "pushes of the finger to ramp up or down from 0 to whatever & back. It does not come natural. Had to make sure my hand was braced or the torch would move while changing amps. Going to take some getting used to.

I have it mounted directly on top of the torch. Tried holding it like a pencil which didn't work to good for me. I grabbed it from the top & it felt better. I will just try different positions to see what is best. The worst part is how far the wheel needs to turn to get up to amps & back. I knew this when I bought it but the price was right.

What works best for me it to hold the remote in my other hand, the one I'm feeding the rod with. That way I'm able to keep the torch steady, and the hand I feed the rod with usually has to move around a bit anyway. Try it!

Thanks. That's something that I haven't thought of. Since I've used a pedal for 20-25 years I know it will be tough to re-learn amp cotrol.
