BON CHARGE vs LightpathLED
Both brands' full line-ups on one basis: every comparable irradiance figure normalized to 15 cm, so a 4-panel range and a 6-panel range can be read against each other instead of against each brand's own marketing distance.
Highlighted cells mark the stronger figure. Irradiance is normalized to 15 cm with a documented falloff model - see how we normalize irradiance. 0 of 4 BON CHARGE panels and 4 of 6 LightpathLED panels publish a figure comparable enough to normalize.
The short answer
- Cheaper entry: LightpathLED. The Diesel Mini opens the range at $374, against $699 for the Demi.
- Not comparable on strength: BON CHARGE states no measurement distance for any of its 4 panels - so those irradiance claims cannot be put on the 15 cm basis the rest of this table uses.
- Only LightpathLED covers: handheld devices.
- Widest single panel: LightpathLED Titan Red/NIR, 9755 cm² of coverage.

BON CHARGE vs LightpathLED FAQ
Is BON CHARGE cheaper than LightpathLED?
BON CHARGE starts at $699 (Demi) and runs to $1599; LightpathLED starts at $374 (Diesel Mini) and runs to $5994. LightpathLED is the cheaper way into the range.
Which is stronger, BON CHARGE or LightpathLED?
BON CHARGE publishes irradiance without a measurement distance, so none of its 4 panels can be normalized to 15 cm and no honest strength comparison is possible. LightpathLED does state distances: its range runs to 236 mW/cm² at 15 cm.
Which BON CHARGE or LightpathLED panel is the best value?
A value score needs a comparable irradiance figure, and BON CHARGE does not publish one. On price alone the entry points are BON CHARGE Demi at $699 and LightpathLED Diesel Mini at $374.
Do BON CHARGE and LightpathLED use the same wavelengths?
BON CHARGE panels emit 660, 850 nm across the range; LightpathLED panels emit 620, 670, 810, 940 nm.
