FAQ
How does the water resistance work on the RA18 Lightning?
Resistance is generated by real water in the tank. When pulling, a paddle wheel moves the water – creating a realistic, smooth rowing feel just like on open water.
What does the LED stroke rate indicator show me?
The LED lighting displays your current stroke rate in real time via a color-coded system: green at 18–26 strokes per minute, blue at 27–32, and red over 32. This allows you to stay in the optimal range without constantly looking at the display.
Can I adjust the resistance?
Yes. The water resistance is progressive: the harder you pull, the higher the resistance. In addition, you set the base level via the amount of water in the tank.
Which muscles do I train when rowing?
Rowing is a full-body workout: legs, glutes, back, core, arms, and shoulders work together in one fluid motion – for high calorie burn and strengthening of nearly all major muscle groups.
What are the benefits of the dual rail system?
The dual rail ensures smooth seat movement, greater stability, and an even power transmission – even during powerful strokes and longer sessions.
What is the maximum user weight of the RA18 Lightning?
The device is designed for a body weight of up to 150 kg.
Can the rowing machine be stored to save space?
Yes. It can be folded up in just a few seconds and stored vertically. When set up, it measures 201,8 x 50,4 x 62,1 cm, and when folded, 74,6 x 50,4 x 105,3 cm. Integrated transport rollers make moving it easy.
Which apps can I connect?
You can connect the RA18 Lightning to fitness apps like Kinomap via Bluetooth and row to outdoor videos of real routes. In addition, 16 training programs are pre-installed in the device – no subscription is required.
How heavy is the equipment?
The rowing machine itself weighs around 29 kg. Packaging and accessories are added for shipping, bringing the shipping weight to approximately 36,7 kg.
How is the RA18 Lightning delivered?
Shipping is carried out by a freight forwarder to the curbside. Upon request, we can deliver the device fully assembled to your location of choice – you can add this option in your shopping cart.
