can you fit fingers and thumb in this lamp at the same time? or do you have to cure them separately?

I do mine separately based on tips I read beforehand. I have very long fingers so I don't think my thumbs would fit, but when you do just your thumbs you can turn your hands so that they are flat and get even exposure to the lamp.

I cannot fit my fingres and thumb in this lamp at the same time, but I like it that way. The instructions said to do your thumbs first and then the fingers and I like having my thumbs cured/finished where they will not mess up before I do my fingers.

It's not recommended, but is possible; particularly for those with small- to medium-sized hands and nails that aren't too long. I have done it on the final top coat only (I wear size 7 gloves), but had to be very careful and place my hand inside slowly watching everything at once (a challenge). There really is no extra room to accidentally bump anything when including the thumb, so doing it in a hurry is definitely not a good idea.

Thumb is seperate. I've been using this a lot for a while now with different brands of gel and I'm still very happy with it. For the price it is hard to beat.

Fingers and thumbs do not fit at the same time. Instructions suggest to gel and cure thumbs first.

You need to do the separately, thumbs first then one hand and then the other. I just did my nails last Sat. over 9 days ago and I don't have ANY chips! This stuff is hard to get off but worth the wear time!

As a nail tech for over 6 years, I would say you want to cure your thumbs first and then each hand. If not, the gel might not cure correctly and end up tacky around the edges.

Yes you can fit all five. I kind of have to hold them somewhat together though. (I was just admiring my nails that I did last week from New Years Eve!). Hope that helps!

You can remove the base from the lamp with a simple turn of the set screw.. BTW.. this lamp is very good for the price..I bought it for a spare lamp.. but it is now my lamp of choice on my work bench.. good price..good lamp.. and good luck to you Dave..

It is a bit difficult especially if you have big hands. It will lock but I had to use long curved needle nose pliers to get enough grip on the bulb.

Yes you can, when you get ready 2 glue the nail on the finger make sure u put a lot of pressure on it because its going to take a few seconds for nail to stick and stay on the finger. It'll get easier from there.

Yes you can place your whole hand flat inside the light. If you really want to, you can even place both hands under light at once if you overlap your hands, placing your fingers in between eachother.

yes you could, but the lamp has three individual "bulbs" if your not high enough they may not light the whole work area evenly...

Yes, you can. The neck is very flexible, you can angle any degree you want. I purchased 4 lamps already. You won't regret.

Yes, it works the very same way as the UV lamp. I bought the LED lamp because the bulbs never have to be replaced and it is safer for skin, according to the reviews. This unit has sufficient timer settings for product that takes a little longer to cure. The cavity is smaller than the UV lamp for some reason, but the fingers and thumb fit just fine, and it is sufficiently roomy for toes, too. So far, I do not regret buying this lamp. UPDATE: Now that I've had an opportunity to use this unit a few times, I do have one issue with the system that I didn't think to consider when I purchased it. The lamp is only in the top of the unit and the sides are reflectors. While it is true the unit can accommodate the fingers and thumb, the outside edge of the thumb for most clients does not cure because the reflectors have no effect and the light does not "see" the outside edge of the thumb. Thus, thumbs have to be held over the index finger (uncomfortable) to cure with the fingers, or they have to be cured separately. Had I realized this about the unit I would not have purchased this system.

Mine came with little led light shown in the box. It only cure one finger at a time. If you want to try how it works, this kid is good. ( I also bought reguler kit that come with bigger LED light which works better)

Yep...I do it all the time and it really helps set them faster. This lamp is great. I love that it fits two hands or two feet. =) Also, i've had it well over a year and the bulbs are still going strong.

You can tighten the side knob with a coin but it gets loose so you have to keep trying to tighten it to stay in place. My friend has one and she does not seem to have the problem that I am having. I suppose it depends on the lamp you get.

Large enough for all fingers, they recommend doing your thumb separately then your four fingers. Lamp is big enough to do pedicures too.

Yes, you can bend and shape the 5 arms the way that you wish just be careful not to bend them to kink them and the shades on top can be twisted sideways or whatever you wish to do plus each shade has slots in the top where the light comes out. Hope that this helps. I do love my lamp.

The lamp is a 12V equaling 7 watts. It would be difficult to cure all fingers and thumb at same time ( thumb would not be flat so only half of thumb nail would cure). It's recommended to cure the 4 fingers, followed by the thumb. Hope this helps!

No. This will make a non-touch lamp into a touch lamp. The lamp has to have metal on it to work.

It was when I got one. I bought one on Amazon when I bought the lamp. Problem is, I'll never use it. The thumb-screw that holds the cross-section of the lamp keeps failing. The lamp almost caused a concussion. I'm not using it and will never have use for the extra bulb. Though, if you already own the lamp and like it, and you need an extra bulb, it was very easy to buy on Amazon. If you do not yet own the lamp, don't buy it unless you want a concussion.

All five will fit and because of the curvature the thumb doesn't have to go in separate. I love my light. Easy to store and lite in weight.
