Comparing the ATPmax to other Class-4 Lasers

Our business was originally about educating consumers about PBMT but it slowly evolved into being the largest independent laser seller in the US. Because of our background, we spend a lot of time comparing and analyzing every system so that we can help people understand the specs and performance and not marketing claims. The table compares the spec and performance of the Biophotonica ATPmax laser to several major brands and it shows how the ATPmax laser is the better system. If you also add price into the analysis, it should be pretty obvious that the ATPmax laser crushes the competition by offering superior performance at a fraction of the price of other systems. The ATPmax laser product line includes the dual wavelength 40 watt (ATPmax XD), a Tri-wavelength 60 watt (ATPmax XT) and quad-wavelength 62 watt (ATPmax XQ) and penta-wave (ATPmax XP). In the following table, we selected the most comparable version of the ATPmax laser so you can see how the ATPmax laser beat the competition.

How ATPmax SQ beats Klaser® Cube 30: Klaser was a dominant force in the lasers in the 2010s. These are only of the only systems made in Italy but they have long struggled to get solid support in the U.S. After losing the exclusive U.S importer to the US in an ugly legal batter, they partnered with several other non-laser companies for sales in the U.S. and none of these companies were very successful at lasers. Now the ATPmax laser offer similar performance and quality at a lower price.

Compare to LightForce, Klaser, Aspen, Summus, Apollo.

Notes:
1. This is the total power of the diodes in the system and does not mean it will 100% of that power. Look at the (8) delivery rate to see real world numbers.
2. This shows the wavelengths used and if the blend of the different wavelengths are independently adjustable. Some systems are a "fixed blend" of multi-wavelengths meaning that the owner does not have independent control of the each wavelength. 810nm is the best wavelength for a photo-chemical reaction. 980nm is mainly for pain and inflammation control but produces about 1/30th the photo-chemical reaction as 810nm (based on research) so we don't sell system that don't have any 810nm as these systems are more like a bandaid than a solution.
3. Systems with sweep pulsing will sweep through multiple pulsing frequencies in one program allowing the laser to optimized to treat multiple symptoms in one program. Lower tech systems have just one "single" pulsing frequency per program.
4. Cloud connected system can be get software and protocol update over the internet. Laser therapy is still evolving so this allows some laser to continuously improve over time while non-cloud connected systems go obsolete.
5. Pulsing technology is rapidly changing. Better systems allow for multiple pulsing steps. For example, this can allow the same program to be optimized for both pain (step 1) and inflammation reduction (step 2) and so on.
6. Every book you read about PBM will state that dosage is based on condition, patient size and skin color. Darker and larger patients need a higher dosage. This is also just common sense. Better system follow the best practices.
7. Hands free systems allow practitioners to have the laser fully automated. The ATPmax laser has a Bluetooth remote so the patient can turn on and off the system themselves.
8. Delivery rate is really what you are paying for but some system claim high deliver rates but don't really deliver the marketed rate in most therapy sessions. Claiming high peak powers is a way to make the system seem like it is worth more than it really is.
9. Higher quality system have a better warranty typically maxing out at 5 years.
10. Interchangeable heads allow the owner to swap out the emitter for different applications, proving better results.
11. Some times, you are just paying excessively for a brand name. Some older brands charge outrageous prices without delivering any better performance or efficacy.

As you can see from the comparison table, the ATPmax laser offers superior performance at a fraction of the cost of a similar class-4 lasers. Both EVO and the competing manufacturers offer multiple models but in all the cases, the ATPmax laser offers superior performance at a much lower cost.

Conclusion: In this analysis, we compare the ATPmax quad wavelength system to the new Cube 30 but the penta-wave system crushes it even more. Prior to the release of the Cube 30, their flagship was the Cube 4+, which we used to sell. The Klaser is made in Italy and their quality and designs are some of the best. That is why the ATPmax laser designers took alot of quality and design elements from the Klaser and took them to a higher level. If you compare the ATPmax laser to the Cube 4+, which sold for $27,500, it beats it's performance hands down. Both system are very similar in the way the software and operating system control the therapy so the main area where the ATPmax laser wins is when you include the price and support in your decision.
