 The new Biomax panels by Platinum LED Therapy Lights are now out and here's what you need to know about them. Hey guys, Alex here from AlexFegers.com and yes, the new Biomax panels are finally out. I say finally because we have been waiting for a long time. And I have one behind me right here and next to it I have the previous gen one. So what I'm going to do in this video is a quick comparison. We're going to run through what new features the new panels have, what you need to know about them, what has changed and what hasn't changed, how you can go order one and all that neat stuff that I'm going to be doing with these panels and releasing on this channel. So be sure to subscribe to check that out. Alright guys, let's get into it. First things first, where do we start? Well, let's talk about name. What's happening on the name in front? Well, turns out nothing, nothing's happening on the name in front. These panels, the new one which I have here is still called the Platinum LED Therapy Lights Biomax and in this case the Biomax 600. There's no vVersion 2 or Gen 2 or revolutionary new names. I've kept exactly the same name and what they're actually doing is they've discontinued their previous line. So if you place an order as of now, in fact I think they've been shipping these on the D-Lo for a week or two. So if you ordered recently chances are you'll get the new one anyway. For the sake of my reviews and my data sheet where I compare all my panels in there I'm actually going to refer to these new ones as like second gen or Gen 2 panels because I will be doing a lot of comparisons between the old and the new and I do have some videos up of my old panels or the old panels being compared to other panels. So naming wise, no changes there. What about on the price front? Well good news as well, there's no price changes there. The prices remain the same as the Gen 1 panels so the Biomax 300 is $569. Biomax 450 is $649, there's US prices. The Biomax 600 which I have here is $899 and the Biomax 900 which is a little bit wider is $1,149. Now discount code LXALEX will save you 5% on all of these prices so that code still works which is great news. Also Platinum Therapy do a multi-panel discount where if you buy two panels you save $100 on the order. If you buy four panels you save $250. All of those things still remain. So it's really good to see that the pricing has stayed the same. Alright what about power? Well good news, the power has increased dramatically. Now that's interesting because the Gen 1 panels were already quite powerful. I think they were the second most powerful panel in my 2019 body comparison series. The new ones though have completely new LEDs and they're putting out much more power. Now I have done some really quick testing with my spectrometer and yes I can say the power numbers have jumped up quite a lot. So I'll have more on that soon in the coming days and weeks here on my channel and over at the blog. Really good news with the power front however what's interesting is they haven't gone to the 5W LEDs. They've stayed with the 3W LEDs and now that's quite amazing because the power numbers I was getting with my quick testing just earlier was higher than that of the numbers that the new 5W LEDs have in some of the new generation panels. That's why I keep saying it's not always about the numbers on the website or on the box. Sometimes real world use and testing is really what you need to go for which is why I'm doing these reviews. Speaking of LEDs, so I'm told that the new LEDs are new and improved. It's higher quality, higher output LEDs, hence the increased power readings I was seeing. I've also been told that internally everything's been overhauled so you've got to improve reliability, improve functionality, better efficiency, better power output. Of course most of these things you're not going to notice but hey it means hopefully in 5, 10 years time your panel is still going to work just as good as it did on day one. So it's all good news. Wavelength wise nothing has changed. So if you're familiar with the Biomax range you'd know they'd use a 5 wavelength approach with their panels. Now 80% of the power is going to 660 and 850. Some people don't like this, some people do but hey it's what Biomax use. So then only 20% of the power is going to those what I call alternative wavelengths being 630, 18 and 830. So that's that ratio, that blend is stayed exactly the same. Platinum have said it that continuing to use the same proven and optimized wavelength. So there you go. As for what's changed on the design front, well out of the box nothing, when you look at it face on nothing has changed though. I do kind of see a little bit different. Maybe it's just aged, this has had a lot of use over the years. This one has slightly cleaner look but otherwise I mean the layout and everything is the same from the front. But when you spin it around and have a look on the side we do see a big change here. As you can see over here I have the Gen 1 first gen panel, here I have the brand new 2021 panel. Like I said from the side there is a slight change. We've got the branding etched into the middle here exposing a lot of the wall. You can see clearly into the internals here. This one here it's all blocked up but it's got the nice red logo on the side. I actually think the red looks kind of neat. Of course these etches up here have changed a little bit as well. And on the top there's a slight difference as well. You may also notice the power cables are a little bit different. On my left here I have the old Biomax. On the right I have the new Biomax. Now look how thick that new cord is. There's some heavy duty cabling here. Which should mean better EMF readings and better performance as well. Check this out. So remember on the left is the old panel and the right is the new one. Now look at this. Look how different it is. So previously we had quite a nice control system. I did like this one very easy to use to slick between your time and whether you want the read or near and free or both to work. You'd fire it up and the timer counted down. You could easily see which lights were working. Very very cool. In fact I think that was one of the simplest effective control panels out of all the panels I tested. So that was great. But over here something very very new. Here we have a big screen. A big OLED touch screen. Now if I show you this it's all touch screen. And it's quite easy to use. I was playing around with it just before. And you can just go into timer. Select your predefined time. Hit run. Where you go. All that cool stuff. But the real magic. The real magic is here. So I can go into custom mode. Now look at this. I can change the intensity or the amount of power that goes to each wavelength. So if I want 100% red and only 10% near and free I can do that. Or if I want 50% near and free and 50% red light I can do that. So that is very very cool and it's very easy to use. Just using your fingers on quite a simple control panel. It's not overly complex or anything like that. So that is a massive change of course to the old panel over here. So very very cool. I do like that feature. The main thing is they haven't over complicated it. They've just kept the basic functions in there. All the buttons work really good. Work really simply as well. So that is really cool. When we look at the back we see that overall pretty much the designs are the same. However the new one does have this inbuilt hand grip. Now you might think oh so what. Trust me if you're moving your panels around like use them in different spots or you package them up or put them away after use. This is awesome. Like trust me I lift and move panels all the time like daily. And the panels that have these hand grips in there is so much easier to move. Especially the big ones. The 600 not too bad but the 900 you know they get a bit of weight. So it's a nice little addition. When we look down here we actually see that there is a slight change with the daisy chain system. So over this one you had the follow no follow. You could say which one is the lead panel. That was if you stack multiple units on. The new one all that is done through the control panel. So you go into set and you say whether it's a solo panel primary or secondary as in it's following another panel. But there's more than that. Let me explain. So what Platinum have incorporated in their new panels is an optional wireless connectivity function. Previously if you got another one of these panels and stacked it on top or had it on the side you had to link them all. Alright there was cables running everywhere. And that meant you know if you control the whole unit or the whole setup just with one control panel. Which was great. The thing is if you wanted panels on either side of you or like one on this side and one on this side you had to have all these cables wrapping around or you had to manually set each one. So you see 20 minutes on this panel in front of you and then 20 minutes on the right one on your side. What I've incorporated now is a wireless connectivity function. Now this means you don't need a data cable to connect them all together. It does it all wirelessly. To be honest most people if you're only using one panel it's not going to matter. If you're doing two like on top of each other it probably still doesn't matter because you can still run the cable behind the scenes. It's out of the way. It's more for people that have quite complex setups like I personally do or if you're a commercial operation and you have like multiple arrays you know maybe multiple panels in different parts of the room for instance. Now if you're worried about your math and you're thinking oh wireless I don't want wireless. Don't worry. You can disable that function. Actually in fact if you run this panel and setup is solo which is how it comes by default there's no wireless function. It's only if you go into the settings and you activate that function. If you use your old school data plugs you know to connect two or three panels together also the wireless function is disabled. Previously with the other panel you could choose between red or never red or both right and they were either all going at 100% or they weren't going at all. There's new one as you just saw that control panel you can drop the intensity right down. So you could have this if you didn't want full power like you only wanted 10% of the power because remember these are quite powerful. You could do that if you want to do longer treatment times like an hour long treatment time and you didn't want all that jewels coming in in 5-10 minutes and being like oh my god I've overloaded the body. You can do that which is really cool. But also you could use it as a background light and just set it on 1% and you're still going to get that nice red glow without drawing a ton of watts which is going to be expensive to run over time and also without over lighting the room so to speak. In fact I might play around with that setting one day and use it as a backdrop in one of my videos. So stay tuned for that. Finally like I said at the start of the video Discount Code Alex remains the same code and the same discount 5% off. So that's everything you need to know so far at least that I've uncovered with these new panels. I will be doing, I will be releasing a ton of new footage. I've got an unboxing of the Platinum Biomax 900 which will be out any day now maybe tomorrow hopefully it will go well I'm not too sure. So be sure to hang around for that. I will be doing a full review of the Biomax 600 I'll be looking at their new stand I'll be testing that wireless connectivity feature I'll be comparing the new generation with the old one so if you've got an old one and you're wondering how is it worth jumping up to the new one I'll be doing that. I'll be testing the Biomax 600 and the 900 and comparing it with say the Mito Red Range I'll be comparing it with the Juve panels all these things are going to be done. Plus I'll be including the new generation Biomax 900 in my 2021 body panel comparison series that's something I've been working on or talking about for a very long time now and now that we have these panels I can actually get in and start filming. So it will be interesting to see how the new Biomax performs because of course the Biomax 600 won that 2019 series. So very cool wow with the new power and the new touchscreen the same price and all that I think they're going to do pretty good. Hey guys if you've enjoyed this video or found it useful give me a thumbs up be sure to subscribe because like I said I do have some awesome content coming out very very soon and if you've got any questions or if you want to know more about this panel now that I have it please leave a comment below and I'll do my best to answer it. Alright guys I'm going to get into some of my filming and reviewing of these new panels and I'm looking forward to sharing them all with you. Very excited. Bye.
