Wavelengths and density
GembaRed publishes its LED share: the Beacon is 22% 630 nm, 34% 660 nm, 22% 830 nm and 22% 850 nm; the Beacon 3.0 uses five bands (630, 660, 810, 830, 850 nm).
Infraredi Pro 2.0 panels list five bands: 630, 660, 810, 830 and 850 nm. Per-band share is not published. Density matters more than count, and only GembaRed shows how its LEDs are split.
Edge: GembaRed on published share.
Power and Irradiance: Spectrometer Readings
GembaRed publishes no spectrometer reading for the Beacon or Beacon 3.0. Its own output figure is calculated rather than measured with a spectrometer, so it is not used here.
Infraredi publishes solar-meter output figures (about 250 mW/cm² on several Pro 2.0 pages) without a spectrometer method. Those figures are not used here. No named spectrometer reading for an Infraredi Pro 2.0 panel was found on 6 November 2026.
Neither brand has a named spectrometer reading that meets the rules for this page, so the two are not ranked on power.
Edge: Not ranked on power.
