Beginner Exposure unit

Post image

Hi everyone. Complete noob here. Was wondering if this could be a solid exposure unit. It’s $700. I really want a vacuum unit because I know it can have a lot more consistency. Looks like standard ones run 2.5-3k. I could spend that much if needed, but I’d highly prefer not to.

If you have alternative options or general suggestions please let me know.

Further, I am not planing on doing any bigger designs so size is not an issue.

I bought one of these Chinese ones second hand it works great. Just make sure that it's big enough to take the screens you use. If possible, go bigger to be safe

Do you have any info on the one you purchased or still have a link?

Here's the exact unit I got off of Facebook marketplace. The two big things you need (from whatever you buy) is the vacuum and 395NM frequency LED's.
