Our picks

Best overall value: Mito Red Light. Wide range, modular panels, 60-day returns.
Best high output: PlatinumLED BioMax. Strong panels with a 3-year warranty.
Best budget: Hooga. Simple, effective, cheap.
Most wavelength control: Rouge G4 Pro, with eight wavelengths you can switch individually.
Premium name: Joovv, if brand and build quality matter more than price.

Wavelengths. 660nm red and 850nm near-infrared cover most of the research. More wavelengths isn't automatically better.
Irradiance (power at the skin). Brands measure this differently and some inflate it. Independent tests are more reliable than spec sheets.
Coverage. A small panel treats a face or a knee. Full-body means a tall panel or two stacked.
Flicker and EMF. Look for published measurements.
Returns and warranty. 60-day trials and 2-3 year warranties are standard among good brands; watch for restocking fees.
Eye protection. Use the goggles. Near-infrared is invisible but still bright.
