Short answer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The five systems solve different problems. The RedWave bed delivers full-body red light with over 4,400 LEDs in 10\u201320 minutes and maximizes throughput. The HaloCab combines five modules in one cabin and is the strongest signature experience. The HaloRed\u00ae salt and red light booth offers multi-person versions for up to three people. Lumivera is the modular photobiomodulation system that grows with you. Consumer panels suit home use, rarely a business.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

RedWave: when throughput counts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The RedWave is a full-body system with over 4,400 LEDs combining red and near-infrared light that covers the whole body in one pass. It has quiet cooling, won the German Design Award and fits wherever many short sessions need to be sold: gyms, centers, spas. It isn’t an experience cabin but a reliable frequency anchor. Details in the red light therapy operator check<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HaloCab: when the experience sells<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The HaloCab combines salt inhalation, red and near-infrared light, ionized oxygen, frequencies and aroma. Six voice-guided presets of around 10 minutes make it easy to understand, and custom signature programs can be saved. Its strength is recognition on little space, not maximum throughput. More in the HaloCab operator check<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HaloRed\u00ae: when several people book at once<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The HaloRed\u00ae Vitality Booth combines salt and red light from four sides and comes in three sizes for one, two or up to three people. The Large version can be combined with a cardio machine. Automatic UV disinfection and no need for external ventilation simplify operations. More in the salt and red light therapy operator check<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lumivera: when you want to start small and grow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lumivera is a modular photobiomodulation system with nine wavelengths from 480 to 1060 nm, dual-chip LEDs and over 1,400 W\/m\u00b2. From a single panel for local applications to a full-body configuration, the system grows with you. Especially suited to practices that combine PBM with existing treatments. More in the photobiomodulation operator check<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consumer panels: when they are enough<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Small panels cover only one body region, lengthen sessions and rarely look premium in a business. They can be enough for home use but hardly carry a business model. Background in Red Light: Professional vs. Consumer Panels<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The calculation shows why the choice depends on the revenue model. If you sell frequency, you need throughput. If you sell an experience, you need recognition. If you target groups or couples, you need multi-person capacity. How to derive break-even from this is shown in The Utilization Trap<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HF Concepts Check: how we rate the five systems in a longevity center<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the HF Concepts Check, we score nine criteria from 1 to 5. Here we compare the five systems for the same facility type, a longevity center. Select the system you are interested in within the scorecard.<\/p>\n\n\n
