Who should buy which
First-time red light therapy buyers testing the habit, budget-constrained users, or anyone who wants a basic supplemental panel without committing to premium specs.
You're committed to red light therapy long-term (the upgrade path makes Mito Red MitoPRO 1500 or Joovv Solo the better pick), or you specifically need verified clinical irradiance.
Spec-driven buyers who've researched red light therapy independently, want clinical-grade irradiance at value-tier pricing, and don't need brand-validation premium.
You want the most-validated brand (go Joovv), modular upgrade architecture (go Joovv), or smaller form factor for face-only treatment (go Bon Charge).
