Main trade-off	Elective returns cost a 20% restocking fee plus shipping, and the tabletop stand is $119 extra.	A one-year warranty with buyer-paid shipping on claims, only two wavelengths, and no measuring distance for irradiance, so the dose delivered at 3 to 12 inches is unknown.

PlatinumLED lists a 1.6 A draw at 110 V and says its lights adapt to any household voltage, with a cord for your country.	It hangs over a door from the included door mount, using braided steel cables, threaded posts and a height-adjusting pulley. The setup text says it can also stand on a solid surface. BON CHARGE's comparison table lists 'Door Mount' as the stand option for this model, and the product page lists no floor stand. It plugs in with the supplied power cord (AC 85–265 V). No dedicated circuit is described.

Warranty	Three years. PlatinumLED's warranty page says it runs from the delivery date in one place and from the purchase date in another. The refund policy says purchase. It covers a light that isn't working properly. PlatinumLED decides case by case whether to send parts, troubleshoot by phone or email, or replace the unit with a new or refurbished one. Claims need photo or video evidence. Drops, misuse, opening the panel and damage from mis-inserted stand screws aren't covered. Only the original buyer from PlatinumLED or an authorized reseller is covered. Neither page says who pays shipping on a claim.	1-year manufacturer's warranty. The product-page FAQ says it runs from the date of purchase, but the store's refund policy says one year from delivery. To claim under the policy, you email BON CHARGE and return the product at your own cost within the warranty period. BON CHARGE then repairs, replaces or refunds at its option, and it pays shipping back on repaired or replaced items. Products used contrary to instructions, abused, modified, damaged or fitted with substitute parts aren't covered.
Returns	60 days from delivery, for the panel only. It must reach PlatinumLED's returns center by day 60, in its original packaging with all accessories. Elective returns carry a 20% restocking fee, which is $131.80 at list price. The fee applies even though the store description calls this a "60-Day Trial". You pay return shipping, and original shipping isn't refunded. Stands and accessories such as remotes are final sale. You have to email support for a return authorization first. Refunds are processed within 14 days of receipt or proof of return shipment, whichever comes first.	You can return items within 30 days of receipt for an exchange, refund or store credit, and you pay return shipping. The refund policy names no restocking fee. Items from bundles, promotions or free gifts must come back unused and in original condition. Report a faulty product within 14 days of delivery. If an item is found faulty, BON CHARGE pays the return shipping. General condition requirements for a standard return weren't confirmed.
