LA2500B6 Powder Coat Oven (2' x 2' x 6')

I ordered the LA2500B shortly after adding cerakote to my gunsmithing shop. I needed something to fit barreled actions in. This is more than big enough for the volume that I do. When I start doing more this is definitely at a price point that I'll just add another, or a larger model. I selected the element upgrade and when I first fired it up it was around 30º and it was up to 250º in 13 minutes. I opted for the DIY wiring and not knowing what to expect (I didnt ask either) got wire and dryer plug from home depot. It does come with a female 4 prong generator plug on the control box. So I removed that and wired on my own cord and plug. One thing I would do differently though when buying again though is to not get the hanging system installed. I believe it was an additional $150 for a couple short pieces of angle iron and bolts. I think next time I would however get the insulated bottom, mine is on concrete so it doesn't matter much but if on a wooden floor could be an issue. Overall I'm happy with it and would buy again. Also keep an eye on tracking if shipped with R+L Carriers, They did not contact me to setup a delivery appointment.

I bought this oven when starting my cerakoting business. I have to say this is one of the best choices I've made thus far on equipment. The price is right for this oven and it functions like a champ.

This is a well built and very cost effective oven and it was a pleasure doing business with light armor! this is the second unit we purchased from them and we couldn't be happier, we use it to cure waterborne paint and thus required a vent be added and they were super easy to deal with on our custom items. we did have an issue with the new controller's LCD overheating but the customer service has been great and the are sending a new controller with a heat guard free of charge 10/10 all around!

This is a well built and thought-out unit. I have run serval cycles through this unit with no problems. It comes up to temperature very quickly. It also holds its temperature very well. It was a painless experience dealing with light Armour with it came to ordering and taking delivery of my oven. I always received response via email or text in a timely fashion. I had the pleasure of picking my oven up at the shop. They have a nice facility. and a friendly atmosphere. Plus, it saved me a nice chunk of money to drive there and pick it up. if there was one thing, All I see that could improve this oven, is it be an option to put a shelf in the oven. Being I don't hang tumblers for cerakote it would be handy to have it built in. all in all a great product and when I need a second oven, I will be coming back to this web page.

I ordered the LA2500B with the upgraded blower
Took a littler than expected for it to arrive but man I have to say so much than my electric smoker lol.
Planning on buying another one

I ordered the LA2500B for Cerakoting, and I have yet to be disappointed. The oven came packaged great and no signs of any visible damage. Controls are easy to use and understand. This oven is the perfect size for my small business fits nicely in the little corner of my shop. Heats quickly and holds temperature as it should.
Just wish I would have got the built in hanger system.

We just received our LA2500B oven. Oven came packaged nicely no damage, super easy to install, tested oven out today after wiring it up. Oven heats up quickly and controls are easy to use and navigate. So excited to have a larger oven to help grow my business. Thanks for a great oven at a good price!

Just got my 2500b in and I’m very pleased with how the process went, it went very smoothly. The build quality is sturdy! I’ll be using it for my cerakote business! Will definitely purchase another one when business gets good!

This is an awesome oven with tremendous build quality. I use for mine for my Cerakote shop. Highly recommend getting the heat upgrade, blower and roof rack. I hang headers, intake manifolds, heavy barreled actions with ease. The temperature gets up to temp quick and stays there. Mine has almost zero heat leakage. My power bill is barely different. With the blower all items you cerakote have equal temperature. Fantastic oven for the price.

Oven works great. Easy to use. Very good instructions on use. Wish I would have done a viewing window upgrade. No problems works great.

I recently started MMC Metalworks (www.mmcmetalworks.com) and wanted to be able to powder coat some of our products. Knowing I needed a more professional oven, I came across Light Armor. Dealing with Light Armor was easy and they were able to answer all of my questions to help me decide on the right oven for my needs. The oven works great and really helps give my products that professional look. If you're new to powder coating, this is the oven for you!

VERSITILE, QUALITY OVENS BUILT TO ORDER AND FAST
For years I had been using makeshift pizza ovens and such to cure cerakote, but after leaving the military and setting up my business (One of a Kind Industries, LLC at www.oneofakindindustries.com) in PA I decided to invest in an oven that I could use for larger items and larger quantities. After looking for some time, I came across Light Armor and, after weighing the cost of time.anf materials to build an oven, decided to place an order. The oven arrived very well packaged and undamaged. The electronics used are high quality as I have been using the oven daily for hours without issue and the oven seals up incredibly well so it holds heat for quite some time after the cycle has ended. The PID is easy to program on the fly and the thermocouple was very close to reported temperature right from the factory. If you are looking for an oven that fits your needs and can be made how you want it for a cost you can afford and in a timeline your customers will appreciate, Light Armor is an excellent choice. If you have any questions on the consumer side, "Google" Ryan Burick and you can find me on social media, my phone number, and other contact info.

Im a small size firearm and car parts refinishing company. After struggling for years with larger items i finally decided to pull the trigger on this and all i can say is i wish i had done this years ago. Took 10 minutes to wire up the plug and i was up and running. I got the upgraded element and it gets to temperature and holds it very consistent. The timer and temperature is very easy to set up and use and make this a very simple piece of shop equipment that does everything right.

I just wanted to thank you for a great quality product. I have my own shop where I bring dead cars back to life. Having access to a great sized powder coating oven makes life so easy. I now have the ability to do everything in-house, the cost savings are great. I would highly recommend that if you are in the market for a quality affordable product then look no further. Thanks again folks for a seamless build and in to my shop delivery!

We have had our Light Armor over for close to two years. It has been a great purchase for our application. We don’t powder coat. We use it to bake urethane coating out of large aluminum tooling nests. The nests are very heavy and the team is not gentle getting them in and out of the oven. The oven takes the abuse like a champion. It is very very well built. It’s amazing to see the number of bolts used to hold it together. It heats up quickly and holds temperature to +/- a degree or two all the time. It’s also very simple to use and incredibly simple to maintain or repair if anything were to go wrong although nothing has gone wrong yet. This is a very competitively priced oven that’s well built. I would highly recommend it to anyone! If you have any plastic welding needs reach out at www.Dukane.com

The oven its self works great. the quality of the build it self is not good. There are tons of exposed sharp edges and and gaps in the metal. Several of the bolts holding the sheet metal on are not screwed in all the way or missing. The hinge on the door starts at the top and stop just a little over half way down the door causing heat loss at the bottom of the door. This oven could be amazing if a little come Quality control would be used . During the unpacking I received a cut that probably should have had stiches.

The controller took some learning but overall this oven has been great. Works perfect for Cerakote and powder coating. Would highly recommend the blower fan upgrade. Lead times were pretty long in height of pandemic but well worth the wait.

I use my oven for curing carbon fiber composite parts (epoxy being the binder) instead of using the oven for powder coating. What I needed is programmable temperatures raised at prescribed rates within a tolerable low hysteresis. This oven does that, as measured to -1/+3°F accuracy. The ramp-and-hold features work as intended, but be sure to read the controller manual to understand the programming conventions. And once I get actual powder coating application equipment, well, then I'll ready for that too. If I really had to nit, there was one fastener that didn't get inserted correctly... ohhhh noooo a solitary fastener... LOOK the oven still works awesome so who cares.
