Clearlight Sanctuary 1 vs Sunlighten mPulse Aspire
The Sanctuary wins on the dimension that carries the most weight: its EMF is verified at the body, not just at a favorable spot. The mPulse has the more sophisticated, addressable full-spectrum system, but until its EMF is confirmed at the seat we cannot credit it the same way.
These are the two most cross-shopped premium full-spectrum cabins. Both add a real near-infrared emitter to a far-infrared cabin. The difference is EMF evidence: Clearlight publishes independent results below 0.8 mG at all positions, while Sunlighten's under-1 mG claim is contested by independent meters that read up to about 2 mG at the seat.

FAQ
- Is the mPulse a worse sauna?
- Not necessarily. Its PulseIQ control over near, mid, and far is the most advanced full-spectrum implementation we score. It ranks lower only because its EMF figure is position-contested, and EMF verified at the body is our heaviest dimension.
