The BIO 450 is PlatinumLED's older 150-LED panel at 480, 660 and 850 nm, 19 by 11 inches, run from two on-off switches with no timer, and PlatinumLED is discontinuing the series. FDA's device identifier database carries BIO records from 2020, but no 510(k) exists, the BIO is missing from the importer's current registration listing and Intertek's directory carries no listing, so it scores 2 on verification. PlatinumLED publishes no output figure for the current build, and Light Therapy Insiders' 59 mW/cm2 average is for the smaller BIO 300, so light output is not scored. Reddit owners are mostly content with it, while the same tester advises buyers who can afford it to take the BIOMAX. It is $499 on platinumtherapylights.com, and PlatinumLED's open-box page sells new BIO 450s at $299 while the series is cleared.

The BIO 450 is a panel from PlatinumLED's older, simpler BIO series, 19 by 11 by 3 inches and 17 lb, carrying 150 LEDs at 480, 660 and 850 nm. Two on-off switches run it, one for the 660 nm LEDs and one for the 850 and 480 nm LEDs together, with no timer or dimming; it draws 184 W from the mains and hangs from an included over-door hook, and PlatinumLED's guidance on the page is 10 to 20 minutes per treatment area. PlatinumLED is discontinuing the BIO series; the BIO 600 lists at $769. PlatinumLED's warranty covers the panel for 3 years.
