How Do You Properly Measure Intensity of Red Light Therapy? - Affordable and Accurate Power Meters

How do you properly measure intensity, power, or watts of a red light therapy panel? For what SHOULD BE a simple measurement, has turned into the biggest scam of the photobiomodulation industry. We set the record straight and recommend affordable laser power meters and 3rd party labs!

Wolezek Red Light Therapy Bulb Review from Amazon: Incorrect Intensity, High EMF, High Flicker!

Another day, another disappointing red light therapy product review! This 36W Wolezek Red Light Therapy light bulb offers a super affordable way to start with the benefits of red light therapy. But once again we are disappointed by the much lower intensity than advertised, high flicker, and high EMFs from this light - especially since we have already did a thorough review of a different light bulb on our YouTube channel. At this point it is no surprise that this light bulb false advertises their intensity. It is a systemic issue across nearly all red light panel and bulb manufacturers...

What are the Actual Watts of my LEDs in my Red Light Therapy Panel?

Even with his spectrometer, he found that ALL of the brands were significantly less intensity than advertised, especially since most of them claim to deliver >100mW/cm^2. https://www.alexfergus.com/blog/what-red-light-therapy-panel-has-the-highest-power-output-let-s-find-out...
