• Wavelengths. 660 nm red and 850 nm NIR is the baseline. RLT Home's seven-wavelength panels (480, 630, 660, 810, 830, 850, 1064 nm) cover skin, muscle and depth in one unit; Lumara Illuminate panels are single-wavelength (660 red, 480 blue, 520 green) for facial treatment rooms; Lumara PRO runs eight wavelengths from 415 to 850 nm; EMR-TEK Krypton adds UV for daytime-style light.
• LED count and wattage. More diodes over the same area means a more even field and a shorter session. The table above lists LED counts where the manufacturer publishes them.
• Irradiance. Stated in mW/cm2 at a distance. BioLight publishes 80 to 88 mW/cm2 on its large units; many brands do not publish a figure. Compare within a brand, and ask us for third-party measurements where they exist.
• Pulsing. BioLight panels pulse from 1 to 10,000 Hz with 1 to 100 percent brightness on a touchscreen; most others run continuous or a fixed 10 or 40 Hz mode.
• Flicker and EMF. BioLight states zero flicker and zero EMF. Ask before assuming for other brands.
• Control. Touchscreens (BioLight), remotes (Vital), app control (Lumara, EMR-TEK on some models), simple timers (Red Nova, LumyHealth).
• Mounting. Door hooks, floor stands and motorized stands. Vital, Red Nova and Lumara sell stands separately; see Accessories.

Start from coverage: a full-body panel if you want 10-minute whole-body sessions, a half-body panel if you will treat the torso and face sitting down, a tabletop if it is for the face or one joint. Then pick the wavelength set: 660 plus 850 nm for general use; a seven-wavelength RLT Home if you want blue and 1064 nm in the same unit; a Lumara Illuminate if the use is facial skin only. Finally decide on control: a touchscreen with pulsing (BioLight) or app (Lumara) if you will vary protocols, a timer if you will not.

Allow for a stand. A full-body panel on a door hook sits at a fixed height; a floor or motorized stand lets you set distance precisely, which is what controls dose.
