PlatinumLED BIOMAX 600 vs PlatinumLED BIOMAX 900
The BIOMAX 600 is the cheaper of the two at $1,049, so it wins on value if the specs are close enough for your use. The BIOMAX 900 packs more emitters (300 against 200), which usually means a shorter session for the same dose.

BIOMAX 600
Given the 900 measured 87 against a 135 claim, treat this model's 129 figure with the same discount until somebody meters it.
BIOMAX 900
Seven wavelengths, the widest spread in the category, and genuinely good hardware. Independent spectrometer testing puts real output near 87 mW/cm2 against an advertised 135.
