I have a bio Sculpture lamp, with a two minute timer. I am sure it's out put USIA 36 watts as that's what I am sure I trained with years ago - (the lamp is only a few years old). It has two bulbs - any current bio girls able to advise me? Thx

The Bio lamp still has two bulbs and they are 9 watts each.
I have 6 of these lamps now in my storage cupboard as I switched to the CND lamps which contain 4x9 watt bulbs.

And what a diffference the Shellac lamps have made! Not 2 but 4 bulbs and clients' hands are so much closer to the bulbs than in the bio lamps. You do not have to cure thumbs separately either (well, I dont)!

Me neither! Also, the lamp switches itself off after two minutes; it has a nice fan; it is sturdier; and is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

The CND lamp is a 5-finger-cure lamp but don't take it for granted that clients will position themselves in the lamp correctly .... Remember to advise them to keep the hand flat and place where they can feel the Braille bumps with the tips of their fingers.

I use Bio too but have always stuck to the Bio lamps as it was drummed into us that we have to use the lamp that goes with the system.
I also have the CND lamp (much prefer it) and would love to use that instead however we were also taught to only cure 2 fingers at a time.
Am I missing a trick here? I contacted Bio about this when I first qualified and they said that they couldn't advise me on the CND lamp, they only ever recommend their lamp.
I suppose my main question is - Is it possible to overcure my Bio gels in the CND lamp? Im so frightened that I will have service breakdown. Will give it a go on myself I think.

Fee- from what the geeks have said it sounds fab. Also with the 2 fingers and bio, I was taught that way to as you are usually slower when you start out. I now do 4 fingers at a time, to speed my treatment time up. Xx
I don't do CND but I want a lamp now I know it works and can cure the thumbs at the same time! Xx
