Just got this email:


Sarah,
We've recently completed additional crash testing and Radian's rear-facing capacity has been increased to 40 lbs.
This change will be reflected in new manuals (end of this summer / early fall by the time it reaches stores.)
In the meantime, please note this increased rear-facing capacity is now retroactive to all U.S. model Radian seats made after September, 2008.

Interim Update Notification:
Models: U.S. models only - Radian65(16500), Radian80(18500) and RadianXT(19500)
Notice: Rear-facing capacity for these Radian models has been increased to 40 lbs
This change will be reflected on future Radian manuals and stickers.
This change is now retroactive and applies to U.S. Radian models manufactured in or after September, 2008.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Best Regards,
Russ Berger

LOL Figures, as Piper hits 41 pounds. Oh, and mine is 3/07 anyway, so it's not retroactive.

I emailed him back asking if they were going to send out new stickers/manuals. I'll post back when he replies.

No pocket protector. I don't remember glasses either. I should have taken a pic!
