A lamp includes: a housing; a platform supported by the housing; a left light source disposed on a left side of the lamp; a right light source disposed on a right side of the lamp; a first top light source disposed at least partially above the platform, wherein; the left and right sources extend closer to a front of the lamp than the first top light source; and a space between the platform and the; light sources; to simultaneously receive therein five nails of all five digits of a hand or foot of a user. The positions of the sources and platform may be designed so as to provide substantially uniform light flux to all five nails so as to synchronously and uniformly cure light-curable nail gel or acrylic on the user's nails.
1. A lamp comprising:
a housing;
an upwardly facing platform supported by the housing;
a plurality of light sources supported by the housing, the plurality of light sources including
a left light source disposed on a left side of the lamp,
a right light source disposed on a right side of the lamp, and
a first top light source disposed at least partially above the platform, wherein at least one of the left and right sources extends closer to a front of the lamp than the first top light source does; and
a spacing between the platform and the plurality of light sources, the space being sized and positioned to simultaneously receive therein five nails of all five digits of a hand or foot of a user so as to expose each of the five nails to at least one of the plurality of light sources;
wherein a front of the left light source extends forwardly of a front of the first top light source by a distance xL, a front of the right light source extends forwardly of a front of the first top light source by a distance xR, and at least one of the distances xL and xR is at least 10 mm; and
wherein one or more of the left light source and the right light source is slidably supported by slidable supports in the housing so as to permit variability in the distance xL or the distance xR respectively.
2. The lamp of claim 1 , wherein the slidable supports for the one or more of the left light source and the right light source are motorized.
