FAQ
Why did Light Elegance create the LED MiniDot?

What is the price of the LED MiniDot?

This makes it great for nail pros just starting out, new to the LE line or looking to add a quality light to their manicure or pedicure stations!
How are the LED MiniDot and LEDdot different?
While both lamps offer the same excellent curing power of the LEDdot, the LEDdot has several added features not found on the LED MiniDot. These include multiple curing modes, an automatic hand sensor, larger size for whole-hand curing, and more. The LED MiniDot is an extremely affordable, simple-to-operate, compact option, making it a perfect entry-level option for new nail pros or nail pros looking to add a lamp to their manicure or pedicure station!
How many fingers cure in the LED MiniDot?
The LED MiniDot cures four fingers at once and the thumb separately. It also cures the whole foot, making it perfect for pedicures!
How does the client place their hand in the LED MiniDot?
When placing the hand or foot in the LED MiniDot, make sure the fingers do not touch the sides or back of the light. It is always best if the hand or foot is laid flat with the nails facing straight up for maximum exposure to the light.

No. The LED MiniDot emits a 400 nm wavelength designed to cure gels formulated for LED curing, which includes all gels in the current LE lineup!
How long does the LED MiniDot last?
Like all LED lights, the power output of the emitters decreases after a period of time, and the light will not cure at full strength.

The LED MiniDot includes a USB-A cable for powering on the unit.

The LED MiniDot comes with a 6-month limited warranty from time of purchase. The warranty covers any manufacturing defects but does not cover damage caused from abuse or misuse.
