Block Blue Light PowerPanel MAX vs Vellgus Pro
The Pro is the cheaper of the two at $849, so it wins on value if the specs are close enough for your use. The PowerPanel MAX packs more emitters (240 against 120), which usually means a shorter session for the same dose. The PowerPanel MAX covers more wavelengths, though the extra bands have thinner research behind them than 660nm and 850nm.

PowerPanel MAX
The most methodologically honest spec sheet we have found. They show you both numbers and let you draw the conclusion, which tells you something about the brand.

Specs captured from an archived snapshot because Vellgus blocks automated access, so verify the price before publishing. The irradiance figure is unusable as published.
