Clean and in good condition. This is a working unit from a premiere state facility that received regular official maintenance until it was phased out of the dept. The unit was pulled from service during an upgrade in late 2025. Most recent PM expired 2/26.
We fired the system up and tested each of the handpieces. The cooling pump system worked pefectly and the handpieces each passed system tests during initialization. Each fired as designed. Our video attempts to show firing but did not fully capture the magnitude of the emmitted light, likely due to the FPS limitations of our camera. We used our own UV protective eyewear as the system did not ship with the official eye protection. It is higly recommended that you acquire the correct protection prior to use. These emmissions are no joke!
Screen, touch interface and controls all worked perfectly. There is some light cracking on some of the outer plastic shells of the handpieces but the lenses are solid. The LuxYs handpiece connector is missing one of the release trigger pieces. This will need to be replaced to correctly connect/disconnect this handpiece. Otherwise, the system performed well in our tests.
Comes as shown with LuxG, LuxYs, LuxR handpieces, manual, treatment guide, footswitch, software master flashdrive, power cable and shown accessories.
