Review:Hellax Resolution review

 

Hellax : the story

HELLAX original name was ELAX  ( anagram of ALEX for Alexandra)

After discussions with the rock guys from the team and because the machine was so versatile ( from smoothy to punchy) ,we decided to add a funny devil on the front plate.

The joke continued later with the 666 label on the pannel.

Just before launching the first series, Christophe B  ( we don’t want to expose him!) said that we have missed another joke : ELAX should be HELLax.

Please, don’t see more than this in the machine name !
