3D Printer UV Resin Curing Light for SLA/DLP/LCD 3D Printing, Solidify Photosensitive Resin, 405nm UV LED Lights with 60w Output Affect

Disclaimer: I received this light at no charge, for review purposes, but my review will be fair and unbiased. The manufacturer lists this UV light as a solution for people who have resin printers, and who need it to fully cure their 3D resin prints. Although I don't yet own a resin printer myself, I have friends whose opinions I respect, that have and like this UV light for that purpose. My interest in the light, however, is for use with UV cured glues/plastics. I have been using a popular repair solution known as "Bondic," as well as less expensive products sold as "5-second Fix - Plastic Welding Tool," etc. All of these products use a pen-shaped applicator to allow repairs of broken objects using a liquid "glue" that hardens instantly under UV light. I have found that these solutions work great in situations where one needs to quickly fill and/or build repairs where the adhesive needs to set instantly, such as broken glasses frames, etc, but sometimes the tiny UV lights that come with them don't do as great a job at fully curing the products as I would like ... so I decided to try this much higher powered solution instead. My conclusion is: "WOW!" This light does a fantastic job of instantly curing the various glues/gels I've used, and the fact that I don't have to hold my finger on a button for an extended period of time is icing on the cake! The six UV LEDs shine very brightly, and get the job done effectively! The light gets warm with extended use, but never hot to the touch. So, let's talk about what you get: The light comes with an attached bracket that will let you easily mount it to whatever surface you choose. I would have liked if the housing had been molded so that it could stand freely without the bracket attached, but this isn't a big problem because the bracket itself can be used as a "foot" to help the light stand on a flat surface at multiple angles. The power cord has an integrated switch so that you don't have to plug or unplug the light in order to use it, AND because the switch is attached to the cord and not built into the light, if you mount the light inside an enclosure you don't have to reach in to switch it on or off. One important thing to note is that while the item description uses the word "enclosure," there isn't actually an enclosure included. You will have to build or provide that yourself, if you intend to use this to cure resin prints and want to reflect or disperse the UV light. Without an enclosure, you'll either need more than one light, or you'll have to rotate the object you're curing in order to make sure the UV rays shine on all surfaces. Aside from wishing the light had been molded with "feet," my only other suggestion is that the lens be redesigned so that the light from all six LEDs focuses evenly on the part being cured. The current lens projects a cross-hatch pattern that seems to focus more intense light along the borders of each LED rather than a more even dispersion of light. While I don't believe that there is a big difference in intensity, it could be better on future models. However, I would not hesitate at all in recommending this light to anybody who needs an economical and very bright UV solution!

Looking for a UV light that's more than just for resin printers? Look no further. The UltraCure UV Light is not just a hit among resin printer users; it's also a game-changer for those working with UV-cured glues and plastics. While its primary purpose is to fully cure 3D resin prints, its versatility extends to curing UV-based adhesives with impressive efficiency. What sets this light apart is its power and convenience. Featuring six ultra-bright UV LEDs, it swiftly cures various glues and gels without the hassle of holding down a button for ages. Plus, its thoughtful design includes an attached bracket for easy mounting, ensuring flexibility in usage. And with an integrated switch on the power cord, turning it on and off is a breeze, adding to the overall user convenience. Sure, there are minor improvements that could be made, like a redesigned lens for more even light dispersion and molded feet for stability without the bracket. But overall, the UltraCure UV Light shines bright as a reliable and economical UV solution, highly recommended for anyone in need of a powerful curing tool that goes beyond resin printing. Bonus points for being used by a few folks in my house. My wife has taken up resin crafts and was looking for a good curing light so this ended up working in a few spots in my house.

Extremely bright and strong. You can’t get this level of cure from led strips. If your prints don’t cure with this, there’s something you’re doing wrong. I bought the recommended led strip on here and curing took a long time. With this they cure in the same time as wash and cure stations. For those wondering, this does support 220V up to 260V if you need to use them outside the US

Loving this little light to cure individual minis or touch up on bits that may have been missed on my curing machine. I already have a wash and cure station in the garage alongside my printers and that's my usual go to for curing my printed miniatures and terrain. But sometimes it's not quite enough because there will be a crevice that doesn't get the UV light properly. Or sometimes, I have a print of just a couple of pieces and having the whole machine set up for that curing is overkill. Along comes this heavy duty light that can be mounted where you like, or just held and moved around the uncured resin pieces to cure them fast. You don't need much time to do so - it's really in seconds. I've used it like this to cure a number of things now and it works super well. I also sometimes put a couple of miniatures on my display turntable and switched this light on to make sure they truly are cured, usually when I had to use a bit of resin to reattach a broken piece of the model. Great buy, and glad it is in my collection of tools.

It is lacking in cooling, the heatsink on it becomes saturated in a matter of minutes and can make it overheat. If it had a better heatsink it would be great.

Works as it should.

I would love to give a better review but I cannot. Initially I was very surprised by the quality feel and construction of this product. This light has an all metal case and mounting bracket. The cord and built in switch are also of good quality. Lens and internal reflector are also very nice looking. The problem, which has been mentioned by others. The LED's only last a short time. The unit I purchased only has 40 to 50 hours of use. The LEDs are already noticeably weaker with most of them looking burnt out. The effectiveness of the LED's have also diminished to nothing in that time. Edit: After more research, it is likely I am not using this as intended. The limited to zero cooling this unit has does not make it suitable for prolonged use. Anything more than 30 to 60 minutes will likely ruin the leds. My recommendation, if you want something for continuous use buy something else. I am however, for the price, buying another unit and limiting the amount of time it is on in any one period. I think the description of the item could use some work to explain its usage more clearly.

Perfect size for desktop projects. The inline switch is a nice feature. The lamp throws a lot of light for curing. The housing seems very durable as well. I’ve used mine for a while now without any issues.

Works really well for fast UV curing

A little on the expensive side, but works great on 3d prints! just a little too powerful so make sure you when to turn it off.

Got this light for curing my 3d printer resin. Made a box lined with foil to help reflect the light. Works great. It does get a little hot so maybe not wise to have on for a long time in an enclosure. Overall does what it is supposed to do and it's fairly inexpensive.

This UV light is excellent for curing resin prints. It cures evenly, is easy to use, and provides consistent results. Very reliable and effective for resin printing.

Important! Use safety glasses. Almost instantly cures resin. Such a timesaver.
