Thanks Nicole. Is there a way you would know if you didn't cure the nails enough? Angie Wingerter

It is a light unit with four nine-watt bulbs. They don't add up to 36 watts of power, simply 9 watts from each bulb, sending light from different angles to cure the nail. You can't overcure or overexpose a gel nail to the light in your lamp.

You won't be over exposing anything using the 36 watt light, it's designed to put the entire hand in vs the 9 watt one which is designed more so for 4 fingers to cure at a time. The 36w should definitely be able to cure the Brisa ,as will the 9w, but you might want the nails to stay in longer than the normal 2 minute cure time. I'm sure some of our more knowledgeable gel techs can explain this better for you.

I am suppose to get the Brisa kit after the first of the year. I have a single 9 watt lamp and an Brisa one too. I think the wattage in that lamp is 36. Does anyone know what the difference is? What if a product calls for a 9 watt? Could you overexpose using the 36 watt? Elaine, could you use the 36 watt lamp on your product?
