 Welcome to round five of the red light therapy body panel showdown. My name is Alex from alexfigures.com and yeah, like I said, this is round five of what's becoming a pretty epic, pretty amazing review comparison here of these six red light panels behind me. If you know nothing about red light therapy or you would just simply want to know more about it, you're intrigued, head over to alexfigures.com search for everything you need to know about red light therapy. I've got a massive article there going into the benefits, what you need to look for in line, plus a bunch of discount codes. All these panels behind me you can buy and you can get a savings or a free gift when you use coupon code alexalex. So no matter what company you go with, yeah, you might as well take advantage of that discount code. If you go for Juve, you don't get a discount code, you get a free gift when you use promo code alex. If you've just joined me, if you haven't seen these other four or five rounds prior to this one, I highly recommend going back and watching them. It will give you a good overview of what I'm doing. Today we're going to look at LEDs, wavelength and size. But size, I've decided last minute change, I'm not going to measure it. I'm not going to include it in the scoring system. Simply because I don't know if it really matters. If you watch the other videos on power irradiance, well, it matters, but it's too hard to say, look, it should be a taller one is worth more or should be ranked higher. Because it really depends on so many factors. If you watch the video on, I think it was around three on irradiance, I talked about beam angle and how the treatment area and it gets so confusing. And one I can't measure that to, yeah, it's just too tricky. So what I've done instead is I'm going to do LED count, because we know each LED is emitting light. So the more LEDs, the better, right? And I know some will say, well, it depends on the power of the LED. Yes, that is correct. But we've already quantified the power levels of each LED. So you can go back and look at that. And the overall score is going to reflect how many LEDs and also the power of each LED. But at the end of the day, the scoring system is just to spice things up a little bit. There is one doing all this is to present the facts and information for you as an independent source. And so you can go out and do or make your own decision as to which panel you want to get. Because like I've said so many times, some people want pure power, some people want low emf, some people want low flicker. There's various price shipping, there's various attributes that are important for every customer. So what we're going to look at today is LEDs and then the wavelength. So let's get straight into it. By the way, if you don't know what panels I've got behind me, the Mitre Red Mitre Max, the Red Therapy Red Rush 720, the Mitre HQ, the Australian company Mitre Panel, the Platinum LED Therapy Biomech 600, the Juve Solo, and the Red Light Rising full stack. So let's get into it. Number of LEDs. 200 here in the Mitre Red Mitre Max, 240 in the Red Therapy Red Rush, 252, there's a lot of LEDs here, in the Mitre HQ Mitre Panel, a bit of an odd number to us. All these numbers are taken from the website, I didn't count them. It would be pretty easy just a quick modification. But anyway, 200 in the Platinum Biomech 600, 150 in the Juve Solo, and 200 in the full stack by Red Light Rising. It's funny because the full stack is quite narrow, but the LEDs are actually really compressed. The Juve here has the lowest amount of LEDs, but it's a similar size to, for instance, the Platinum. It's just spaced out a lot more. And then this one here, you know, it's a very packed in, you know, 252 LEDs, and you can see they're quite closely packed. So anyway, a quick ranking from first through to last. Actually, we'll go last through to first. Last place, the Juve Solo. Well, we have three panels in third equal. We have the Red Light Rising. We have the Platinum, and then we have the Mitre Red. They all got 200 LEDs. They all have 200 LEDs. And then in second place, the Red Therapy. This one here, 240. Then the first place, the Mitre HQ. So yeah, obviously the more LEDs, the more power coming out, you know, the wider the, the bigger the treatment area and all that. But I know it does get confusing because you just look at these two. They're very different. Taller, narrower, has a lot more LEDs than this one. But so it's very, very complex. But more LEDs is going to be better, right? So that's why I've included that. Next round is the wavelength. Now this is, this is really interesting. So for those that have been involved in the Red Light Therapy space, you know, you've read the articles, listened to the podcast, maybe you've got a panel, or at least thought about buying a panel. You'll know that there's two commonly used wavelengths. And that is 660, which is the red, the bright red, and 850, which is invisible to the human eye. It is the neorepherid. And both have different healing benefits and therapeutic benefits on the body. The 660 doesn't penetrate as deep as the neorepherid 850. So it has more like surface level benefits, you know, for scars and whatnot. The deeper penetrating red light has a bit of, a heat in it, the neorepherid light has a bit of heat in it. So it has a bit more of a circulation blood flow benefit. But then it has a deeper like muscle bone healing benefit. There are thousands, literally thousands of studies on benefits of particular wavelengths. It's a massive, I sort of wrote a whole, you can go down. I have written about it on my website. There's 36 benefits of red light therapy, and I go into a lot of the, you know, common health issues or benefits from red light therapy and the wavelengths associated with them. So check that out. But yeah, they, 660 and 850 are shown to be pretty good in terms of well-rounded overall benefits, which is why so many companies and some of the leading companies let Neurothor with their $120,000 product use 850 and 660. So all of these panels have those wavelengths in them. But some of them have gone beyond these wavelengths. Now, I don't want to get into the whole, this is better than that argument. It's probably going to depend on what you want. You know, maybe some people just want 850 or 660. But I've got the view that more is better in this, when it comes down to wavelengths. Simply because we know that there's benefits of 630, like 810. So why not tap into them? And I'm sure there's going to be more and more data coming out in the coming years where like more benefits are found from these other wavelengths. So why not use them? That's, that's my viewpoint. And that's why I've included this in here. And I'm going to score based on what wavelengths each unit uses. So, and if you don't like that, I mean, let me know below and you know, I'll listen to it. To be honest, I get it. Remember that with this point scoring thing, it's just a way for me to, you know, make this a little bit more interesting. And I know not everyone's going to agree with that. But you know, that is what it is. So let's use my rule at this time. Over here, we have the Midoreed Minimax. That is 50% 660 and 50% 850. So that's your standard. You're going to see that a bit today. Next, you have the Red Therapy Red Rush. Same thing as the Midoreed. 660 and 850, one to one ratio. Midow HQ. Same thing again. 50%, 660, 50%. 850. I'm going to come over this side. We have the Platinum Biomex 600. And this is where it starts getting interesting. They have two... This is their second generation product. If you watched my first video, I think it was round one. I talked in the pricing. They have their Bioceries range and their newer Biomex range. Biomex came out 2019 and had a whole... Well, a lot of changes. And I've got a review on the Biomex. So you can read what changed and the benefits and etc. Their original Biomex 600, which I don't have here today, only had 660 and 850. The new Biomex, this one here, has five wavelengths. There's 630, 660, 810, 830 and 850. It's pretty cool. In fact, when you turn it on, let's see if this works. You may notice, you may not. But you can actually see some different shades of red, which is the 630 coming in. Maybe even the 810. Maybe you're starting to see a little bit of color coming out there as well. You've got to remember with wavelengths that these LEDs, they're not lasers, there is a little bit of a range in terms of the light. So if you go over to AlexFigures.com, what I'm doing is posting all the images from the spectrometer, and that shows a breakdown of the color range that this unit picks up. And you'll see, there's spikes, right? But they're not like a straight line. There's a curve. And often the range is maybe 5 nanometers, 10 nanometers. When you think about it, that's so tiny. You know, you're talking from maybe 650 to 660 range, or even more. And so every LED has a unique range. In fact, an interesting thing. I don't have the numbers here with me right now. I wish I did. But when I tested these, the peak nanometer was often not bang on the listed numbers. So for instance, the minohq 660, maybe the peak was like 659 or 58. It was a little bit off. So the interesting thing is, like I said, there's a bit of a range, right? It's not perfectly dialed in. I've had conversations with light engineers and people that make these panels. And I've always said that. Like, it's a little bit off. It's not perfectly... Well, the peak nanometer isn't perfectly bang on 660. It might be 660.3 or something like that. But there's still a ton of energy going into that 660. And again, I'll put some images up, especially over at AlexFigures.com. And you'll see what I mean. There's a little line. You know what? I'll do it right now. Okay, so see here. So if you can see that image on the screen, you'll see that there is a range. You know, we're talking 820 it starts right through to 680. Obviously there's not much power going in there, but there's a ton of power coming in from say 650 to about 665. In this particular example that I'm looking at. I don't know what you're looking at on the screen if there's a different image. So don't get too caught up if the peak numbers are a little bit off, alright? The main thing is you're getting a ton of power coming in at that 660 nanometer. The other benefit is though is, like I said before, there might be... Well, there are benefits outside that 660 and 850 numbers, but you're getting that from all of these because they're not lasers. They're not perfectly dialed into that one number. So for instance, the peak numbers for all these panels range from 659 to 662. That was based on my own testing. So nothing really to worry about. The biggest outlier was actually Juve at 662. That was two points higher than the listed. All the rest is 661 or 659. So that's on the red light range. On the near infrared light, which is your 800s, there was a broader range. Everything from 845, which was the Mido HQ here. That's peak, remember? Through to... Yeah, 845. We had 847s, 846s. And then we had some interesting numbers in platinum because that's where I was going with before I went off on this tangent. But just because it peaks at 845, that doesn't mean 850 might be 2% below that 845 number in which case you're still getting a ton of benefit from the 850. So I hope that makes sense just in case you're looking at these graphs and thinking how and what's going on. But anyway, what I was getting at is platinum and Biomax have come out with five wavelengths in this panel. They've got the 630, the 660, the 810, the 830 and the 850. From a power point of view though, they're not evenly spread. It's not 20% of each. In fact, it's 10% at 630, 40% at 660, 5% at 810, 5% at 830 and 40% at 850. I've realized I've done this wrong. I hope that math works out right. So you're still getting 80% of the power going to the 660 and 850 because like I said, those are the gold standard numbers. But I think it's really cool that they have brought in these other numbers, these other wavelengths because if you check out the article of my review on the Biomax 600, you'll see that there are a lot of benefits published science on the 810, the 830, etc. So for that reason, I'm giving these guys first place, I don't know if we've gone through the ranking to get a little bit lost now. But anyway, they're going to come out on top because of that. One interesting thing though, when I did the testing with this device, I found the 850, I found the 830, I found the 810. In fact, I even went right down to 800. One of them was peaking at 802. So I was getting peaks at 802, 822, and 846, which is a little bit off the peaks they say on here. But if you plot it all and see all the graphs, you're getting that whole range. But what I didn't find, I didn't find any LEDs that were peaking around that 630 number. All I found was the 661. There was a range about 659 to 661. I tested maybe half the LEDs. I got sick of it, you know, there's a couple hundred LEDs in there. I couldn't find anything right down at 630. Yes, there is power coming out at 630, but it's not, you know, we're talking maybe 10% to 15% compared to the other one, compared to the 660. My assumption is maybe that, unlike with the Neurinforade, where they've dedicated certain LEDs, you know, one LED is peaking at 820, another one at 846, maybe what they've done with the red is simply widen that range and keep them all the same. And then they've worked out that, you know, still a decent amount of power is still coming out at the 630 number. That's all I can think of. Either way, there's definitely a wider range of wavelengths than the Platinum Biomex 600 compared to these two. So, Juve. What about Juve? On paper, they list 660, 50% 850, 50% the numbers I tested, 662 and 846. That's a few points off, not too much to worry about. However, with Juve, on the red light, the 660 range, I actually found, instead of seeing that nice even, you know, symmetrical sort of peak that you're seeing with the other ones, I actually found that it stayed quite high from about that 630 to 660 range. And I don't know if this is a deliberate thing because they haven't marketed it. I've never heard of this, I've never been talking about it. But there's a ton of power coming out around 640 to 660. I don't have the number right here in front of me. I wish I had the graph. I'll try to overlay it on the screen. But you can see how there's something going on there. And I tested it on a few of the LEDs. So that's pretty cool, because you're adding a lot more power in those extra wavelengths, you know, around that 640 mark. Very, very interesting. Red light rising, likewise, 660, 850, 50%. They do custom lights. You can customize the wavelengths. They've got a list on their website, redlightrising.co.uk. And you can choose between, I think it's, there's a couple in the 600, there's some 700s, and there's also a couple at 800 options. It's very, very cool. No other company does this. And if there is, you know, if you found some papers and you think, I've got this health problem and there's a published research showing that 730 is beneficial for it. You know, that's really cool. You can now go out and get a panel designed on the wavelengths you want. There is a cost to that. It's like 100 pounds, which is about 130 US dollars, and it's probably going to change by the time this goes out. But as of today, it's about 130 US dollars. So that does complicate everything. But I'm giving them a little bit of a boost in terms of the points or the rankings because of that ability. So yeah, that is pretty cool. So to do the rankings, I've already given this away now, haven't I? Working down from the top, first place we do the Biomax 600 just because they do have that wider range, which I think is really cool. And I think we'll start seeing that with other panels because companies try to separate themselves and also, I'll stand up from the crowd, and also there's so much research showing the benefits of these other wavelengths. I know there's been a cost issue with some wavelengths, like it's quite expensive to get LEDs doing certain wavelengths. And also, I mean, given that all these companies are doing 660 and 850, it's probably quite easy to get access to those LEDs. So it will change, but platinum with the Biomax 600 have definitely been a market leader on that front. In second place, I've gone with the Juve. And now there isn't I've gone with them is because, even though they're less 660 and 850, I'm testing about 640s through to 660 at really high level. So that's cool. That's a little surprise. I had to give them second. Third place, I went to read like rising simply because you can get the customized wavelengths. There's an extra cost, there's probably extra shipping times where they're just going to go to Alex will save you 5% though, so that helps. So I've given them third. And then these three panels, I've went fourth equal because they all have exactly the same. So let's total up the points from the wavelength scores and then the total LED scores. Remember the lower the score, the better. So in sixth place, we have the Juve solo with 8 points. So they got last place with the LEDs and second place with the wavelengths. Put them at 6 points for this round for the LED and wavelength round. Then we got a fifth place and we have the mito red with 7 points. Then we got two panels on 6 points and that's the red therapy and the full stack. They've both got 6 points so they're on third equal. Second place went to the mito HQ with 5 points. And in first place, the Platinum Biomex 600 with 4 points. So they got third for the LEDs and then they came out number one with the wavelengths admitted. So knowing all that, we can update to get the total points after round 5 and I think there's any one more round to go. So we're getting to the business end of the competition and the funny thing is it's actually tightened up. Well, the middle of the pack is definitely tightened up. A lot of the panels down the bottom have caught up now but one panel has really jumped out by quite a big margin. So let's go through them all. In last place, we have the red therapy Red Rush 720 which was also last place last round after round 4. So they haven't gone anywhere special. Fifth place and these guys were also first last last round. The mito HQ with 34 points. Sorry, these guys were 37 points. In fourth place and these guys have dropped the position they were 30 equal last round. Red Light Rising with 31 points. Now in third place and these guys were third last time as well. Mito Red the Mitomex with 30 points. And then we have the top two and these guys have been fighting out number one, number two for a while now. We have the Juve Solo in second place at 29 points and that was second last round. And number one to date after round 5 rounds we have the Platinum Biomex 600 with 22 points. So yeah, they've broken out. Seven point lead. Last round they only had a three point lead. Yeah, big time now. The difference between first and last is 15 points. Last week it was 13 so that's got a little bit wider. So really you have to pick them to come out number one. What have we got next week? Warranty and bonus features. So that would be interesting. It could really spice things up. But you'd have to say at least first to second. We're going to come out number one. Juve with 29 the difference between them and third is only one point. I don't read it on 30. So yeah, I mean Juve will want to be coming out number one but they're going to have to pull a rabbit out of the bag in the last round. Otherwise they could really slip big time. So it's going to be interesting. It's going to be really, really interesting. Third at 30. So 29 there's only a couple points between third and fourth place. Same for second third fourth. I have to say platinum is looking like they'll come out number one but who knows anything could happen.
