Choose ifYou want one door-hung panel for full-body sessions, with dimmable red and near-infrared light and a three-year warranty.You want a small, dimmable panel for your face or a joint that sits on a table, with a three-year warranty.You want a full-length 660 and 850 nm panel that hangs on a door, with output given at several distances.
Main trade-offMito publishes no output figure at its recommended distance, and returning the 25 lb panel costs you shipping without the optional protection.It covers only small areas, and Mito doesn't publish output at the 12 to 18 inches it recommends.Its output figures aren't backed by a named test, it has no pulse or dimming, and return shipping comes out of your refund.
Key specifications
  • LEDs: 300 lenses with 600 chips. Mito says each lens holds two chips on separate circuits
  • Wavelengths: 590, 630, 660, 810, 830 and 850 nm. Mito gives the split as 6%, 22%, 22%, 17%, 17% and 17%
  • Modes and dimming: The touchscreen runs all six wavelengths (half red and amber, half near infrared), red and amber only, or near infrared only. The manual says red and near infrared each dim from 1 to 100%. The app adds NIR Extend: up to 20 minutes of near infrared with a 1-minute red break every 4 minutes
  • Irradiance at 6 in: Mito lists >73 mW/cm² by professional spectroradiometer and >160 mW/cm² by consumer meter. The lab report Mito summarizes gives 53.5 mW/cm² average and 72.5 mW/cm² peak. Mito publishes no figure for any other distance
  • Power: Mito lists 445 W. The lab measured 418.7 W at the wall. Input voltage isn't stated
  • Size and coverage: 10 x 43 in and 25 lb. Mito rates it for full body, and the smaller 750X for upper or lower body
  • Controls: Touchscreen with session timer, brightness control and alarm. One panel connects to the phone app by Bluetooth, and Mito's App Store listing shows the app as free with no in-app purchases. Running several panels together takes a wireless remote, which Mito includes only with 2- and 4-panel arrays
  • Use guidance: 10-minute sessions at 12 to 18 in, at least 6 hours apart on the same area. The manual says 4 to 6 sessions a week, and the product page says 4 to 7. Mito advises no more than 15 minutes and never over 20. It gives the near-infrared-only cap as both 5 and 10 minutes
  • In the box: Panel, power cable, user manual, over-the-door hook, steel hanging cables, 4 vinyl straps, opaque goggles and Mito Red IR3 glasses
  • EMF and flicker: Mito says the panel emits 'no detectable EMF' at 6 in or more and is flicker-free, but publishes no measurements. The manual's only flicker entry, IEC 61000-3-3, tests the panel's effect on mains power, not light flicker
  • LEDs: 60 lenses / 120 chips. Each lens holds two chips on separate circuits, so the panel can run 100% red, 100% near infrared or 50% each
  • Peak wavelengths: 590, 630, 660, 810, 830 and 850 nm. Mito gives the split for the whole MitoPRO X series as 6%, 22%, 22%, 17%, 17% and 17%
  • Irradiance at 6 in: >130 mW/cm² by consumer solar meter and >56 mW/cm² by professional spectroradiometer. Mito reports a LightLab test (report LLIA002765-005, Sep 12, 2025) of 38.2 mW/cm² average and 55.9 mW/cm² peak over the area below the LEDs
  • Power: 125 W power consumption on the product page. The LightLab test measured 111.8 W wall draw and 36.4 W total radiant power
  • Coverage and distance: Face, neck or joints. Mito recommends 10-minute sessions at 12 to 18 in. The manual says 4 to 6 sessions a week, and the product page says 4 to 7
  • Controls and modes: Touchscreen with three modes: all wavelengths, red and amber only, or near infrared only. The manual gives dimming from 1% to 100%, plus near-infrared pulsing. The Bluetooth app adds an NIR Extend mode of up to 20 minutes. Mito's App Store listing shows the app as free with no in-app purchases
  • In the box: Panel, tabletop stand, power cable, user manual, opaque protective goggles and Mito Red IR3 glasses
  • LEDs: 300 dual-chip LEDs, listed as 300 x 5 W, with a 60-degree beam angle
  • Wavelengths: Each dual-chip LED holds a 660 nm red and an 850 nm near-infrared emitter. Hooga doesn't say how output splits between them
  • Irradiance and coverage: 218 mW/cm² at 3 in, 189 at 6 in, 136 at 12 in and 102 at 18 in. Coverage grows from 43 x 14 in to 60 x 29 in over that range. Hooga names no meter, lab or method
  • Power: 530 W power consumption on the product page, but 300 W on Hooga's comparison chart. Both give 1,500 W as the rated or 'LED power class' figure. Input is AC 85–265 V
  • Controls: Red, near infrared or both, set with the panel's MODE button. The manual lists a 5, 10 or 15 minute timer, and the panel starts with no timer set. No pulse or brightness control, and Hooga mentions no app
  • Use guidance: For skin, 18 in for 2 to 3 minutes per area. For deeper tissue, 6 to 12 in for 6 to 10 minutes. Hooga suggests 3 to 5 sessions a week, and no more than 2 a day
  • EMF and flicker: Hooga claims 0.0 μT at 6 in. The product page calls the panel flicker-free, and the certifications page calls it low-flicker. No test report, instrument or method is published
  • In the box: Panel, US power cord, series linking power cord, door mount, hanging kit with adjustable pulley, protective goggles and user manual
Exact variantsingle 10 by 43 inch panel, with over-the-door hook and hanging cables, no standMitoPRO 300X targeted 9.5 by 14.5 inch panel, with tabletop standSingle panel, sold as the PRO1500 in one configuration, with door mount and hanging kit, no stand
Dimensions10 x 43 in (width x height, panel only) and 25 lb. Mito says to add about 6 to 8 in to the height on a floor or universal stand. It doesn't state the depth. Mito's lab-test table lists the panel as 42 x 9 in instead, without explaining the difference.9.5 x 14.5 in (width x height, panel only) and 7 lb, per the product page. Mito says to add about 6 to 8 in to the height if you use its floor or universal stand. It doesn't state panel depth.36 x 8.6 x 3.1 in and 21 lb, per Hooga's comparison chart and the table on its product page. Hooga's online store lists a weight of 13,154 g (about 29 lb) without saying whether that includes packaging.
InstallationAn over-the-door hook, steel hanging cables and four vinyl straps come in the box. The manual shows how to hang the 1500X from a door but gives no weight limit for the hook. Mito's floor stand ($139) and universal vertical or horizontal stand ($349) fit the 1500X but cost extra. The panel plugs in with the supplied 16 AWG cord. Mito doesn't state input voltage, current draw or outlet needs. The only electrical rating in the manual is the 10 A, 250 V fuse. The manual gives an operating range of 45°F to 115°F.The 300X comes with a tabletop stand. The manual says to pull it out and set the panel on a level surface. The manual's door-hanging steps cover only the 750X and 1500X. The $139 floor stand is listed for those two panels only. The $349 universal stand fits every MitoPRO X size. The panel plugs in with the supplied 16 AWG power cord. Mito doesn't state input voltage or amperage, and it doesn't call for a dedicated circuit.A door mount and a hanging kit with an adjustable pulley come in the box. The manual says to hang the kit and panel from the door mount, then plug the panel into any outlet. Mobile stands are sold separately. Input is AC 85–265 V, and no dedicated circuit or electrician is described.
