Why are therapy lights so expensive?

I’ve been in the market for a red light therapy device and, like many of you, I’m dismayed by the pricing on every product that’s actually legitimate.

Why do I feel so lazy every time I get into my room?

It’s AFFORDABLE at just $40 for the bulb+cord+power switch itself

Cons:

It’s approved by the FDA as level II medical device (reminder, this means the FDA endorses it as safe, not that they are vouching for its efficacy)

Pros:

Number of lights (bulb: 12, Omniluxe 60)

You can shine the bulb anywhere on your body (beauty-specific masks are limiting). I’ll be treating my face as well as my alopecia areata on the top of my head.

Yes, there’s a huge difference in total number of LEDs, but to put it in context, the Solawave has about five and this bulb has 12. The ones on this bulb are BIG. It casts light on my entire face when I’m up close.

After a ton of research, I decided to buy the “Hooga HG24 bulb” with the cord and I also purchased a stand separately. Grand total: $60.

It has its pros and cons but the pros vastly outweigh the cons in my opinion…

Hooga is a reputable Red Light seller

Comes with eye guards

Comes with a cord attached so it’s basically its own complete lamp when you buy the stand

It has the very close technical specifications to the Omniluxe (Bulb 650 nm 850 ni, Omniluxe 630 nm 830 ni) MINUS the number of lights

Slightly less convenient for facial use since it doesn’t conform to your face and you have to be somewhat stationary with the bulb.
