| Choose if | You want a small panel for one area at a time, with lab-measured output at the distances you'll use. | You want one large panel that works without an app or subscription and can grow into a linked BIOMAX setup. | You want one door-hung panel for full-body sessions, with dimmable red and near-infrared light and a three-year warranty. |

| Main trade-off | Elective returns cost a 20% restocking fee plus shipping, and the tabletop stand is $119 extra. | You can't work out a dose from published figures, and a return costs $259.80 plus shipping. | Mito publishes no output figure at its recommended distance, and returning the 25 lb panel costs you shipping without the optional protection. |

| Key specifications | - LEDs: 100 LEDs. LightLab counted 48 red, 50 infrared and 2 blue
- Wavelengths: 480, 630, 660, 810, 830, 850 and 1060 nm in the product description. The comparison table says "7 Wave" but lists only six, leaving out 850 nm
- Irradiance (lab average, 350–1700 nm): 71.79 mW/cm² at 6 in, 56.25 at 12 in, 43.89 at 18 in and 35.30 at 24 in. At 12 in, red (600–700 nm) averaged 24.61 and near infrared (780–1700 nm) 30.50
- Power: 180 W and 1.6 A at 110 V on the comparison table. LightLab measured 174.8 W at 120 V
- Size and weight: 18.90 x 8.66 x 2.76 in, 11 lb. Maximum heat rating 130°F (55°C)
- In the box and mounting: Panel, eye protection, door hook, hanging bracket, power and patch cables, cable assembly with snap links, six screws, a wrench and a remote. Tabletop stand $119 and wall bracket $79, sold separately
- Use guidance: 10 to 20 minutes per area, up to 2 to 3 areas a day, 3 to 5 times a week. The product page says 8 to 14 in for deep tissue and 16 to 24 in for the face. The FAQ says 10 to 15 minutes at 6 to 12 in for deep tissue
- EMF and flicker: PlatinumLED lists 0.0 µT at 4 in. Its EMF article describes an in-house test with an unnamed detector. It makes no flicker claim
| - LEDs: 300 LEDs. LightLab's report lists 144 red, 150 infrared and 4 blue, which adds up to 298
- Wavelengths: 480, 630, 660, 810, 830, 850 and 1060 nm in the store description. The comparison table says "7 Wave" but lists only six, leaving out 850 nm
- Irradiance: None published for the 900 at any distance. The chart and "3rd Party Verified" report under it are for the BIOMAX PRO ULTRA. The 900's own LightLab test measured total output in an integrating sphere, not irradiance at a distance
- Power: 490 W and 4.4 A at 110 V in Solo mode. 380 W and 3.45 A in Remote mode. LightLab measured 490.9 W at 119.7 V
- Size and weight: 35.83 x 11.81 x 2.76 in, 33 lb. Maximum heat rating 130°F (55°C)
- In the box and mounting: Panel, eye protection, door hook, hanging bracket, power and patch cables, cable assembly with snap links, six screws, a wrench and a simple remote. Wall bracket $79 and stands $139 to $869, sold separately. None names the 900
- Use guidance: The product page says 10 to 20 minutes per area, up to 2 to 3 areas a day, 3 to 5 times a week. It gives 8 to 14 in for deep tissue and 16 to 24 in for the face. The FAQ says 10 to 15 minutes at 6 to 12 in for deep tissue
- EMF and flicker: PlatinumLED lists 0.0 µT at 4 in. The only test it describes used an unnamed EMF detector. It makes no flicker claim
| - 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

| Dimensions | 18.90 x 8.66 x 2.76 in and 11 lb, per PlatinumLED's comparison table. | 35.83 x 11.81 x 2.76 in and 33 lb, per PlatinumLED's comparison table. | 10 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. |

| Installation | The box includes a door hook, a hanging bracket, a cable assembly and snap links, so you can hang it over a door. The tabletop stand costs $119, fits only the 300 and 450, and is sold separately. A wall mount bracket is $79 and a mobile floor stand is $139. Stand sales are final. 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. | The door hook and hanging bracket come in the box, and PlatinumLED's FAQ mentions an included over-the-door hanging kit. Stands cost extra, stand sales are final, and no stand listing names the 900. The Mobile Floor Stand ($139) fits "BIO and BIOMAX panels" but tells you to check its weight capacity, which isn't published. The wall bracket ($79) and four other stands say "BIOMAX panels only". Those stands run from $219 for the XL Mobile Floor Stand to $869 for the XL Motorized Horizontal Stand. The 900 draws 4.4 A at 110 V in Solo mode, and PlatinumLED says its lights also run on 220 V. | An 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. |

| Materials | LightLab's report describes a formed steel housing, an aluminum circuit board plate and two fans above the LEDs. Each LED has a clear conical plastic optic. | LightLab's report describes a formed steel housing, an aluminum circuit board mounting plate and four fans above the LEDs.
