I think the MitoPro 300 is an excellent starter panel for any use case, not just skin care. It's small enough to be easily portable and configurable, and it's just as capable as Mito's larger units. This unit will likely be my 1st panel purchase because I don't want to spend a fortune initially. However, I do want to have a full body setup eventually and the modularity of the MitoPro line allows a newcomer like me to get started using targeted RLT for a relatively low price and easily expand to a full body setup over time. I really like that.
Hey, I like your thought process. I want something that's an investment but not a burden. I'm not even sure how RLT and NIR therapy may work for me. Did you make your purchase and if so how has it been so far?
@@jameelahadas4759 Yes, I now have the 1500 in addition to the 300 and I have seen a difference in overall well being, particularly improved skin health and sleep quality, which is amazing since I've been a lifelong insomniac. It did take several weeks before I noticed any benefit, so keep that in mind.
@@bsampa100 Of course, you can use it or any red light panel for skin care. My point is that it's useful for far more than just that purpose, the 300 in particular can be used on any area of the body due to its compact size.
Dude you rock. So thankful for all these thorough reviews you did on red light therapy. My doctor recommended it for some facial pain I'm feeling in my sinuses but the more I look at it, the more I see how it can help my shoulder, knee, and my husband's back and knee. Thanks again for your time and energy you've put into these videos.
Highly recommend, especially for a beginner. I first started with this panel to treat low back pain and shoulder tendonitis. It was easy to set up on a table so I could sit or lay in front of it. The base was even stable enough to sit on the bed without tipping over. I liked that it was small enough I could move it anywhere in the house or even travel by car with it, but I could also add it to a larger panel if I wanted to invest more. It was powerful and effective, and didn’t seem to get warm at all even when using it back to back on multiple body parts or even more than one person. As a newbie to this tech it was a nice entry point between the risks of buying cheap devices that may be too underpowered to get benefits versus investing a ton of money when this therapy may not have helped my issues at all. I also liked that this company had a longer trial period and warranty than most in my budget.
@@goddessandcuchi Results for the shoulder tendonitis were amazing. Nothing had helped for around six weeks, it was suspected to be caused by Mixed Connective Tissue Disorder. I think I started with ten minute sessions (before bed and after waking up) and by the third day the pain relief and mobility range were markedly improved, by the end of the first week I could finally sleep on that shoulder again, and within a month it was completely resolved even after dropping to fewer sessions. My back pain is from a tangle of Fibromyalgia, Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, and nerve root damage and inflammation from Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy. For me, the red light treatment relieves stiffness, and seems to decrease inflammation related pain. It also doesn’t cause the problems I have in other areas of my body when using heating pads, ice packs, or hot tubs (all of which can help a localized section of the back feel better while setting off nerve pain or rebound inflammation pain in surrounding areas/nerve branches). It also helps normalize circulation and skin temperature when my body gets confused and turns painful areas extremely cold (like Reynaud’s syndrome in Lupus, which I also struggle with, so I use red light on my cold hands and feet too). It’s been life changing for me and I ended up investing in larger panels when I could afford to.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. For years I thought no one was interested in the smaller units. I only started reviewing them this year, and since then I have learnt that a lot of people love them. And I get it - the size, the price, the portability, the stands etc - there is a lot to appeal with these panels. MitoRed even told me that the 300 is there most popular product! I'm pleased to hear you have had great results as well :)
Great review! We just bought this one recently as a way to “dip our toes in” to the red light therapy world and so far we love it. Plan to expand our collection in the future.
Glad you tested it - I just got mine a few days ago (and thank you for the discount!), It easily fits into my morning routine and the way the stand allows for angling is great too. Thanks!
Great channel! I’ve been using red light for years as a night shift worker and has helped me tremendously. I wish I could find studies specifically for this. I personally find it beneficial in addition to vitamin D supplementation. I started with Joovv years ago and then got a Mito both large panels. I like the mito large panels more
Another excellent video. Just purchased the Mitopro 1500. Not only does MitoRedLight offer superb products, but the also provide excellent customer support.
Just found your channel and loving your videos! Thank you so much for all the info! Can’t wait to see the comparison video between your favorite table top versions!
Thanks for all the informative videos Alex! Just bought this model as my first red light with your discount. Hoping for possible benefits to mitochondria with methylene blue plus collagen/skin improvements.
I've been looking for something to help treat my TMJ pain. I'll be buying this one for sure. Hope it helps! Thank you kindly for your help! 🤩...that moment I realized it also has anti-aging benefits, 😅 LMBO.
Thank you so much, your channel is so helpful! Question, what benefit does the MitoPro have over the MitoRed? What are the benefits of the extra frequencies in the MitoPro? I’m looking to use the light to improve my skin and sleep. Thanks again 🙏
Hey. Thanks for the kind words! So i recently typed up a good answer to this question in our FB group - facebook.com/groups/lighttherapyinsiders/ - but for the life of me I can't find it! I'll do a video/article on this topic soon. But in a nut shell traditionally used 660nm and 850nm light as these were easy / cheap to access and had good reseach behind them. They're also in the spectrum where it has been shown that Mitochrondira benefit. But there is actually more research on other wavelengths - such as 810nm than 850nm. These are also used by mitochrondria. But until recently they have been more expensive to use in a product. So now we're seeing all these new panels coming out with these other wavelengths that do look really promising. You can see more about 810nm here for instance - www.alexfergus.com/blog/810-nanometer-wavelength-effects MitoRed also have a new MitoADAPT range - so you can see the difference between that and the PRO version here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8CV645EOsdg.html Also check this out - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9Nw5Abb2h4E.html
my very large older dog is having body pain, especially in his shoulders, hips, knees and ankles. At first I ws going to get the handheld device, but thought this might be better for him since he's so large. Any comments? Looking forward to your table top comparison, but really leaning towards MitoRed since they get such good reviews.Thanks so much for all your hard work and research.
Hey. Hoping to push publish on the tabletop comparison this week (sorry for all the delays). As for your dog - I don't have any experience with them, but you may also consider the mats or large belts - and your dog may prefer to lay on them? Alternatively a tabletop panel - or a larger panel on it's side sitting on the ground may also work well.
I would love a full body panel from mito but cost is an issue so if I start with this tabletop, can I move it around and treat more of a whole body approach taking 10 minutes per body region? And am I right by saying it is just as powerful as a large one on the area it reaches? Also, do you have a dosing guide for specific conditions? Thank you!!!
Hey yes you are right - you just need to take more time to treat the entire body. I don't have a dosing guide sorry. It's too tricky to figure out optimal dosing.
I am really interested in this one. I absolutely love your videos. They are so informative. I have been doing some research because my sister has epilepsy. I know the flicker lights she cannot use but I did see that red light therapy could help with epilepsy. Do you think red light therapy is okay for someone with epilepsy?
Hey. Thank you :) Yes this is a good panel option! Oh I'm sorry to hear about your sister. My Son also has epilepsy, it is horrible. I am doing a lot of research on RLT and epilepsy - as it does look like it can help. But the research is limited and the mechanisms of actions aren't understood. I still haven't used any RLT on my son - mainly because 1) he is so young (just turned 4), 2) his medication is working well, and 3) I want to get more data and run it past a neurologist first. But if I was an epilepsy sufferer, given the benefits I have seen i would be using it myself. I would probably look at the helmets or headsets over a panel though (I have some content on these coming out soon). You could also check out the Vielight - www.alexfergus.com/blog/vielight-review-does-red-light-on-the-brain-up-the-nose-improves-cognitive-function Oh and have a look at this document - aferg.co/science - do a search for epilepsy and you will see all the studies on the topic. If I do find some break through evidence or do have updates I may look at doing some videos on this topic in the future :) All the best and let me know how you get on.
Great review as always from alex! I recently purchased two Biomox 900 plus stand and I’m in love. That said, I find that there are some spots I would like to spot treat, such as the knee for torn meniscus. I am unclear whether the spot treatment units, as well as us this table top have the same power as the large Full body panels, just focus into a small area, or if the power is not comparable. Also I believe that Alex recently said that the wraps Are not as powerful either, so that you’re better off with a full body panels. I’m just wondering about this areas that are hard to target. When you lie down and use the horizontal stand do you have obviously different distances from different parts of your body so it’s hard to specifically have every part of your body at the same distance from the light. For that reason I’m wondering if a spot unit is helpful as an extra unit to use at a different time of the day in that specific area. Basically the supplement it,
Thanks :) Hey yeah typically the large panels are putting out more power than smaller units. I have tested a knee wrap and the power on that was quite low. BUT - you need to remember you use that right up against the body, and can leave it on for longer and still move around(without having to stand next to a large panel etc). You hit the nail on the head - the smaller devices supplement the larger ones. If someone only had $1000 to spend, I'd say get one BioMax 900. But if you can spend more, then sure, get the large panels and also get some smaller units. I have a bunch of 900's, but I still use my MitoRed Battery Powered device when I'm treating a small issue. I leave it in our coffee table drawer in our lounge. So I might be watching tv or reading a magazine or hanging with the kids and I can use that for a few minutes when needed :)
Just received this one last night! ( used your code) I also bought the flex! Should the pro300 put out any heat from the bulbs? I feel a little bit of heat on the front of it . I’m guessing yes? I have another one that does not put out any heat .
Thanks for your support. Yeah there will be a little bit of heat from the NIR bulbs. They do generate a lot of heat - hence why the fans and heat sinks are there. But it shouldn't be hot - as in you shouldn't get burnt by touching the panel etc. If that is happening something is wrong and you need to message the company.
thank you for your so very detailed reviews, I have spent all day trying to decide, living in the UK, finally narrowing it down to this one Mito pro x and another uk brand 'helios' - still trying to decide, but as you mentioned long standing companies are most likely better. It seems the 5% discount only works for the US outlet?
Hey, hmm the 5% discount should work for all customers. Do you know see it showing up? Also - check this out - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C4oYsTcaJoE.html
I've had mine for two weeks and I've been using it every day twice a day for 10 minutes. I'm curious about the EMF output because I sit really close to it and I'd like some peace of mind. Would you mind sharing that info?
Hey, I don't have the hard data with me, but I recall testing this with my nnEMF meter and it was fine. Right up against the panel you do get a bit of magnetic field - but this is true for all high powered panels.
Love these informational vids!!! it has helped so much! I do have a quick question-I have brain inflammation from mold toxicity and thyroid issues and very dry skin. I"m trying to find a smaller light to treat my brain swelling. I know the NIR will reduce inflammation but wanted to know which one you would recommend since I trust your advice on these panels. TIA!!
Hey thank you. There are devices out there that are specifically for the brain - Such as the Vielight. But a panel may be better suited. You'd want something with a lot of NIR light - so 810nm, 830nm, 850nm etc. The MitoRed Panels have 50% of their energy going to 830nm and 850nm - which is good, but it is a shame there is no 810nm. The Infraredi Flex range does have 810nm (as well as the 830 and 850nm) - I have a review here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Srcs-bhU18Y.html Likewise the BioMax range - but the biomax has most of the NIR light in the 850nm range, I'd be after something that has a decent amount of 810nm to be honest. So Maybe the infraredi - as the NIR is split equally between 810, 830 and 850nm. Discount code ALEX will work on any of these panels as well :) Good luck - keep me posted on how your health journey with RLT tracks!
Dear Alex, I am a bit confused. There are two different companies named Mito. One is „Mitolight“ and one is „mitoredlight“. Their websites look quite similar. I am not sure who is copying who.
Yeah MitoRedLight is based in the US (and has the MitoPro and MitoADAPT range). MitoLight is based in Europe. I'm yet to test their panels. I'm pretty sure MitoRedLight was first on the scene. I've only just started hearing about MitoLight.
on the company site irradiance at 6 inches is 130mW/cm2. In this video after measuring it is equal to 72mw/cm2. So now I'm lost which measurement is right to calculate the dosage?
Hi Alex, do you know the lifespan of the MitoPro 300? Great review though...just really really needed to know the lifespan and I can't find it anywhere. I think it's a very important factor when one wants to buy a device.
Hi Alex! Thanks for all of your reviews!! My mom is looking for a table top but can’t really afford much. Do you think the MitoMIN 2.0 is a good model?
Really appreciate your expertise. I’m looking for red light therapy for neurogenic facial pain and rosacea. I hope this is a good option. I’m going to give it a try. I’m EMF sensitive. Wondering if you have any info on that?
Hey, Check out these articles: aferg.co/RLT-rosacea-1 aferg.co/RLT-rosacea-2 aferg.co/RLT-rosacea-3 aferg.co/RLT-pain-1 aferg.co/RLT-pain-2 aferg.co/RLT-pain-3 aferg.co/RLT-pain-4 EMF - I used to do a lot of EMF testing on panels, but these days they're all really low in EMF so I don't spend too much time on it.The Joovv Solo panels are quite bad for nnEMF however, so you may want to avoid that one.
Hi Alex, finally mustered the courage to bite the bullet and purchase this device. Received it and it doesn’t work!! Switched it on and nothing!! Has this ever happened that you’re aware of? I’m going to contact the company Monday but I’m so bummed. I rewatched your video thinking I was doing something wrong and I’ve tried it on different other outlets…. Nothing. 😢
Hey, Oh no I'm so sorry to hear about this. Get ahold of MitoRed - they have a great team and will see you right. I haven't heard of this issue no. Just checking - the power point is switched on? And you turn on the big red switch on the back of the unit?
Thank you for responding. The Mito team were very helpful. They sent me a replacement cable and once I plugged it in, it worked!! Need you to clarify… instructions say we need to wear the goggles to protect the eyes. Is that necessary? My husband’s just been diagnosed with glaucoma and I understand red light might be beneficial. Would it be ok to use the panel with eyes closed so we’re not staring directly at the lights?
Hi Alex, Thank you for your in-depth videos. I’m ready to make this purchase- but I live in France. Do they include a power cord that will adapt for 220v? I saw your response for the comment from Chile-and it sounds like the panel will work on 220v, but I assume that means I just need an adapter for the wall plug? (Versus a transformer to step down from 220v input to 110v device?). I’ve burned out other electronics from the US and don’t want to repeat that! Thank you!!
So can this device also help with overall health ? I want one not only for skincare but good sleep, muscle pain and all that can benefit me ... But I want something not so expensive to start with red light therapy
I have a question: I have not done red light therapy before. I have a ligament injury on the top of my midfoot from basketball that the podiatrist said will just take time to heal (can be up to a year). Will this product (or similar products) help and be strong enough to penetrate into a foot ligament on the top of the foot for faster healing? Would a laser product be better than an LED product like this? What would you recommend for ligament healing? Thanks for your in depth reviews.
Get an infrared panel for soft tissue recovery. Cold laser is so exact it takes many treatments and it can get pricey at a clinic. Infrared is a dispersed energy so it reaches entire areas all at once. If it is a higher grade tear look into softwave treatments or some prp injections.
Hi Alex! I wanted to get one too! But how long should I do it on my face and for my back pain? How many times a week am I suppose to do? Thanks so much!!
I've just purchased my second MitoPro 300 so I can do more surface at a time. Can you recommend a few good sources of information? That's the only drawback to this unit is the lack of instructions. How long is too long for a particular application, how far from the unit, etc. Thank you!

They are both good panels. I would consider the shipping costs and possible duties incurred, too. Maybe this will help: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C4oYsTcaJoE.htmlsi=yCIn9uLdWhYBzNj3
It's really hard to answer this. There is no solid research showing what protocol is best with larger products. I personally use my panels for about 10mins at a time, 5x a week. And then yeah I have the weekend off. Some people use it every day and have great results.
Hey. I wish I had a clear answer here but it's so hard to answer. What I recommend is using it for say 5-10mins a day and then adjusting after a fortnight depending on the results you're seeing. I know this is a slack answer, we're going to spend more time on dosing protocols in future content, it's just a hard one as there are so many variables and unknowns.
Hi Alex and thank you for all your expertise in red light therapy. I am newbie to RLT and have only gone to a salon one time. I was not sick for a month and I am always sick, so I would really like to purchase a device. The salon had the joovv 3.0 panel. Can I get the same results at home with a table top such as the MitoPro 300? Price is a factor and am finding many less expensive mats and panels but not disclosing the specs I am learning from you which is concerning. I have pain and sickness almost everyday. Injures lead to pharmaceuticals and the more damage. Can this table top version penetrate healing as much as larger panels? I would like to order a panel but like the ability to put the device away also. Thanks for any advice you can provide on how to move forward for the ultimate healing for the buck.
Hey, yes the MitoPro 300 is a great starting panel! You don't need to spend extra on a Joovv - check this out for more - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eCc_SSKq19M.html
Between this one and the Hooga 300Pro do you this one is the way to go? A bit more $$ but it has a timer and seems a bit better, overall- customer service /warranty is a bit better than Hooga, I think?
Thanks for a really informative video. Got it in my cart and ready to order but just wondered, I know they ship worldwide but do you have to get a converter for it to work in another country. I'm in the UK? I can see that the power lead going into the top of the device is your usual power cable that is used for PC or a kettle but unsure what the other end is like?
Realistically how long should we be using this for skin care vs brain health vs joint pain? I have this panel but im confused even with the recommendation by the company because of all rhe conflicting info online
Different wavelengths (i.e. colors) have different effects on the body. If you have a quick look in this database aferg.co/science - you will see that different studies look at different wavelengths (i.e. 660nm or 850nm) and have different results. This article may help - www.alexfergus.com/blog/everything-you-need-to-know-about-red-light-therapy
Hello Alex. Would a Hooga Red and NIR bulb work just as good as these panels? Is the only difference the coverage area, where with the bulb you will have to move it around to different spots? I know the MitoPro300 has the two additional wavelengths but besides that, can you still get the same benefits?
Hey what exactly do you mean by the Hooga bulb? But yeah the smaller devices are more for spot/targeted treatment. Hey be sure to check this new video out of mine as well - it looks at the MitoRed vs Hooga panels - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7MqNVgo3fm8.html

Not sure I want this model although it has pulse. I'm needing a good tabletop using it for pain and joint issues from RA. In looking at an infraredi tabletop. Have you done a review on this?
Hey, sorry I'm not familiar with BioHeal and I won't be able to review one this year - I'm working through a bunch of other tabletop panels including the new Infraredi Flex Mini (review will be up next month) :)
@futbol1972 0 seconds ago I GOT THE mitopro300 for Christmas. how long to use it on face, back etc??? I also have infrared sauna that I like to use for about 20 minutes after exercising.

@@LightTherapyInsidersDo you know when you will get the 300x to do an in depth review? Curious about EMFs since it has Bluetooth. Or should I go with the Infraredi Pro Mini OR Red Light Therapy Home?!😵💫🙈Looking for something with the most wavelengths.

@@LightTherapyInsiders Yes. And also, my house does not have that third hole in the socket. I would need to use an adaptor and I am afraid of the wattage or voltage drawn by the unit.
So I just ordered the pro 1500 but read reviews of people saying it burned their skin or made their wrinkles worse after just using it 5 min a day..now I’m wondering if I made the right choice, have you heard of it burning people?
Hey. Oh wow, no I have never heard of this. I have heard of some people developing a rash when they started using RLT - but it went away and they dropped the intensity and duration down. Where did you hear about people being burnt?
