Rogue makes circular gels for their grid, but does anyone use these universal lighting gels with the rogue grid? heat, bending, or other problems?

I personally haven't had any problems. It would make more sense to get these gels over the gels designed for the grid simply because you can use them when you're not using the grid system.

Dixie, did you find an answer to your question? I want to know if the Nova lamp will correctly cure OPI Gel nails also.Did you find another alternative?

I ordered this stand on Amazon ( ePhoto ULS69 Continuous Lighting Kit with 3 Muslins ) and threw away the muslins - they get soooo wrinkled - it works great for this size roll of paper.good luck.

Good morning, I have installed (2) of their fixtures and did not notice any flimsiness. I also installed a 4 globe version without a hitch. All our visitors during the holidays liked they way they look.

Sorry I didn't get back to you any sooner. Yes you can use your own dome lights but there is not much room. The cross beams on the top are plastic so they could potentially melt. I have 2 mini domes (day & night lights) and the Exo Terra Dimming fixture for the UBV lights on the top. Seems to be working O.K. Pretty nice set up but is only a temp fix for my ever growing Green Iguana. Hope this helps-Take care!

Alien Bees are far the best lights in their category. Apparently it annoys Elinchrom users ( see above )who paid much more for their lights, which in many aspects are inferior to Alien Bees. I originally used Alien Bees than moved to different lights, that to different ones again. But ABs spoil their users, You would have to move way far in the price in order to get the same level of satisfaction. The lights in the price range and even more expensive look and feel and work much worse. The Elinchrom DLites, even their BX series feel so cheap in comparison, and they do break often. Recycle time is longer, flash duration is way longer and you pay premium for this. Oh by the way Elinchrom DLites show the color shift too. Most lights tend to show more warm colors when powering down. How much is the color shift of ABs ? If you measure the color at 1/2 of the power than at the full power it would be about 150K colder and at 1/16 about 200K warmer. What is 200K ? For your information a human eye cannot distinguish 200K difference when looking at one photo then another. So do not be fooled by Elinchrom fans. Check eBay. Used Alien Bees go as much as 90% of their full price, no other brand including Elinchroms can brag by that. Thousand of users cannot be wrong.

Freestyler buddy! It's great with it. No issues with my setup. Chauvet show express and the American dj software will not work with it. Great prize! You can add any type brand fixture with a DMX interface. You might now have some in the fixture list but you can easily create you own using the specification of each of the fixtures.

Every time you put the whitening trays in...I used once a week. You have to put the gel in the trays...put those in your mouth...and then put the light in your mouth over top of the trays...a bit awkward to do.

I purchased the same light that broke when I tried to put the shade on one of the fixtures. It seems that the ceramic was oval instead of round. Since I broke it, the distributor said too bad, even though it was defective to begin with. anyway, if you cant find one, I have 2 extra.

Yes, I have used a LED light with no problems! Gelish has the best products, and it lasts.

I suggest buying new trays at walmart. Cut them down along the top to fit comfortably in your mouth, then stick the light tightly against the tray and close your lips around the whole thing! It feels weird but...and hold the light tightly in your mouth with your hand. Hope this helps!

I would get two lights, one for each tray if that is your only choice and within budget. Definitely grab a reflector hood too. Although 1 bulb could work, I feel that 1 bulb would be bare minimum and you would want to move the trays around to help distribute the light evenly in a 1 light set up. I personally use 3 of these lights for 1 tray, for max/best results. But then I tend to over do things. =) Good luck!

I will setting mine up with a dimmer pack for the first time in a couple days. What software are you using? Im running QLS on one system and Freestyler on another.

I'm not certain...but I use a UV light system by Protek. Tip, look up "How to apply Builder Gel"...it's how I learned about this product:)

I've had several Panasonics. Instructions for at least one recommended foam, not gel. I've always used foam (light covering, a little added water). It also works pretty well with plain water or witch hazel, which I use for an aftershave.

Thank you for responding to my post. I, too, use Gelish and want to make sure that I choose the right light. Do you happen to know what the wattage is for the Nova? I know that the Gelish lamp is 45w for the 9g and 30w for the 6g. I'm trying to wrap my mind around how that difference will affect the cure! I'm leaning more towards the Nova, so this info will help.

Hello. We have a UV lamp. Unfortunately the gel polish is too thick to spread, and is unusable. So the lamp won't make a difference. Very unhappy with our non-refundable purchase.
