Hooga HG300 vs Mito MitoMOBILE

Pick by use. The HG300 is the better value and the more verifiable panel, with a measured 6-inch number and the lowest price. The MitoMOBILE costs more and its irradiance is rated at a close 3 inches, but the rechargeable battery and five wavelengths make it the travel-friendly choice. In our view the HG300 wins on measured value; the MitoMOBILE wins on portability.

Two small targeted devices for face and joints. The Hooga HG300 ($199) is a mains panel independently measured at about 55 mW/cm² at 6 inches with the core 660/850 pair. The Mito MitoMOBILE ($349) is a rechargeable five-wavelength panel whose 100 figure is stated at 3 inches, which is not the usable distance we credit.

FAQ

Why is the MitoMOBILE's 100 not treated like the HG300's measured number?
The MitoMOBILE states 100 mW/cm² at 3 inches, closer than the 6-inch distance our rubric credits, so it is not directly comparable. The HG300 was independently measured at about 55 at 6 inches. Both are honest small panels; one is rated at a usable distance and one at contact range.
