Frequently asked questions

An Extension Kit can only cover an IVL Photon purchased on the same invoice, or later. - What happens if I send the whole fixture for service?That’s your choice! But your freight cost will be greater, and the replacement process may be slower
- Can I cover 2 permanent installs with 1 kit?Sorry, but no. One kit can only cover one inventory, defined by the Extension Kit serial number, IVL Photon serial numbers, and their main localization.
2 different installations must be covered by 2 Extension Kits.
For a number of IVL Photons registered on the same Extension Kit greater than 20, more information on their exact localization and use may be asked prior to the restock.

A registration done by an official Minuit Une distributor could also be accepted.
- What If I purchare more IVL Photon later?For instance, you have purchased 5 IVL Photon with one Extension Kit on the 1st of July 2023.
Your coverage period will end on the 1st of July 2028.
If you register 5 more IVL Photon on 1st of July 2024 as associated to the initial Extension Kit (the one purchase on the 1st of July 2023), this 5 new IVL Photon will be covered until the 1st of July 2028.
- What happens in case of second hand?An IVL Photon previously registered as covered by an Extension Kit resold to a new owner will not be covered if the new owner does not purchase the Extension Kit.
Example:
You purchase an Extension Kit in 2023 and 10 IVL Photon.
In 2025 you resell 4 IVL Photons to a new customer.
Option 1: Without Extension Kit for the new Owner, those 4 IVL Photons won't be covered anymore.
