Part 2’s most controversial section was the inclusion of a – a hidden menu that allowed advanced users to calibrate the output voltage with an external multimeter. “We trust you not to blow your face off,” read the manual. That line became legendary. The Final Launch – Limited to 500 Units Here was the answer to the burning question from Part 1.

Part 1-2 may be complete, but the legend of VMR is eternal. The Final Launch – Limited to 500 Units
