# Best UV resin kit with light: starter sets for beginners Source: https://resinandmold.com/best/best-uv-resin-kit-with-light Publisher: Resin and Mold. Picks are chosen from what each Amazon listing states, not from hands-on tests. Method: https://resinandmold.com/how-we-pick A UV resin kit with light puts the resin and the lamp in one box, so a beginner can pour and cure on the same evening. The kits differ in three ways. First, the amount of resin, from 200 g to 500 g. Second, the lamp: resin makers such as Let's Resin advise a lamp above 12 W and not over 54 W, at 365 to 405 nm, yet several listings state no wattage and only one states the wavelength. Third, what else is in the box: some kits add only a mat, cups and gloves, others add molds, glitter and dried flowers. Opaque molds block UV light, so check that the molds are clear or translucent; no listing here says which. This guide compares seven starter kits by what their listings state: resin weight, hard or soft type, lamp wattage and wavelength, stated cure time and contents. Nobody here tested them. ## Picks ### 1.
