device that is closer to your body. • For deeper tissues, it’s straightforward – you want and need high-power lights to give the intensity needed to deliver optimal doses to the deep tissues. So even if you were to use them for long periods of time, the lower power devices simply can’t do the job. Another incredibly important point is this: One of the big benefits of getting a high-power light is that – since light spreads out as you move further away – it allows you to treat much larger areas of your body while still getting an effective dose on all the parts of the body it is shining on. Remember, the power density (dose) of the light decreases as you move further away. In contrast, lower power lights need to be right next to your body for an effective dose, therefore, can only treat a much smaller area. So with a high-power light that’s less than 24” long, you can move it a little further away and treat the skin on almost the entire front or back of your body at once! Whereas, with a lower power light of the same dimensions, it has to be much closer to your body to get an effective dose, and thus, you will only be able to treat a much smaller area. This is just one of the amazing benefit of high power lights – they allow a relatively small light less— than half the length of your body —to function like a light that is full body size. In short, whether your primary objective is anti-aging skin treatments, fat loss, muscle gain, or to treat organs and glands, including the brain, high-power lights are the way to go. They allow you to do so much more and get numerous benefits, are more effective, and they can treat larger areas of the body at once, so they’re far more time-efficient. Comparing Power Densities of Light Devices from Popular Brands Below are some photos I took of actual measurements of the power densities at different distances of several lights from the companies that I consider to be the top red/NIR light device companies on the market – the Red Rush360 by Red Therapy Co., the Bio-300 from Platinum Therapy Lights, and the Joovv Mini. Remember what I explained previously about how actual power measurements differ from claimed measurements (which are usually based on the theoretical numbers that the lights are supposed to achieve). I wanted to provide this section for you to see the actual light intensity of these three options at various distances. Again, knowing the light irradiance (power density) of a light at a specific distance is critical to getting the dose correct. If you get any of the three lights below, you’ll have the actual (rather than claimed) light output measurements at various distances, so you can dose accurately. (Note: I’ve already done this for you, so all you have to do is follow my dosing guidelines – you don’t need to do any calculations or measure light output or anything complicated.) But if you decide to get a different light other than what I recommend, you will want to buy a PAR meter and test your device to get measurements of the actual output and dose accurately. Before we get into the photos and measurements, I want to mention a few specifics: For all three lights, I tested a 50-50 mix of red and near-infrared LEDs. Also note that if you get a pure near-infrared device, it will emit slightly higher outputs due to the LED bulbs themselves emitting more light output. • If you were to measure a pure red light vs. a pure near-infrared light produced by the same company, the near-infrared device would have roughly 20-30% higher light output. • Compared to a 50-50 mix of red and near-infrared LEDs, the pure near-infrared device would have roughly 10-20% higher light output.
