How Do Therabulb Incandescent and LED Bulbs Compare?

Wondering Which Bulb is Best for You?

TheraBulb often gets requests to recommend "the best bulb." Unfortunately, asking us to do that is like asking us to tell you what your favorite color should be! That's because much of the decision is based upon personal circumstances and preferences. 

Things to consider:

• Do you want a bulb that produces heat or not?
• Do you want to use a lamp that you already own or are you willing to buy a specialty lamp?
• Are You EMF sensitive?
• Are you trying to replace an existing bulb?
• Do you have enough capacity in your electrical circuit to operate high wattage bulbs?
• Do you want high intensity red light and near infrared with moderate heat?

The chart below shows how TheraBulb LED infrared bulbs and near infrared heat lamp bulbs for infrared lamps and infrared saunas compare. 

Specific Benefits of Each Type of Bulb

TheraBulb sells both incandescent infrared bulbs and LED infrared bulbs because each type of bulb offers some benefits that the other does not. This makes each type a great alternative to the other and makes them complement each other well. The videos below highlight unique benefits of each type of bulb.
