GembaRed Vector 4-Wave review

We have not had this panel on a bench. Everything below is its published specs measured against the 101 panels in the database - irradiance normalized to 15 cm, price and coverage compared with the other 24 targeted panels in its class.

What it does well

  • Among the cheapest targeted panels in the database at $249.
  • Brand publishes third-party test results rather than in-house numbers only.
  • Effectively flicker-free at 0.2%.

Where it loses

  • Weak on delivered light: #17 of 21 targeted panels at 14 mW/cm² normalized to 15 cm, which means longer sessions than most rivals at this size.
  • Expensive for what it delivers: value score 3/100, #15 of 20 in its class.
  • 3 cheaper targeted panels in the database deliver at least as much light at 15 cm, from $147.
