The Mito Difference

Why We're Different: 4 Pillars No Other Brand Can Match

Most red light therapy brands are white-labeling generic grow-light hardware. Mito Red Light was built differently — from the hardware engineering to the third-party verification to the customer support. Here is what sets us apart.

👦

Engineered for Humans, Not Plants

Unlike brands repurposing horticulture grow lights, every Mito Red Light panel is purpose-built for human photobiomodulation — optimized wavelengths, beam angles, and irradiance for skin-depth tissue penetration.

📊

Independently Tested & Verified

Unlike most brands that rely solely on internal testing, Mito Red Light panels are independently verified by Intertek and/or UL for electrical safety. Power output (irradiance) and spectral output are independently measured by LightLab International — an ISO-accredited photometric laboratory. We do not self-certify or rely on manufacturer spec sheets.

Electrical Safety Certified

Mito Red Light products carry third-party electrical safety certifications from Intertek (ETL) and/or UL — depending on product. Select devices hold UL Medical Equipment certification to IEC 60601, one of the most stringent standards in the industry. See all certifications ↓

🆕

Full System Approach

Mito is more than a panel company. We combine precision light therapy devices with a science-backed skincare line and a growing research hub — giving you a complete, integrated approach to photobiomodulation wellness.

Established & Proven

In Business Since 2018 — Over 7 Years Serving Customers

Mito Red Light was founded in 2018 in Scottsdale, Arizona by Scott Chaverri — a Cornell University graduate (BA, Psychology) and University of Rochester Simon Business School alumnus (MBA, Finance). What started as a mission to make clinical-quality red light therapy accessible to everyday people has grown into one of the most recognized and trusted brands in the category.

We have been continuously operating and serving customers for over 7 years. Our products have been refined across multiple hardware generations — not because earlier versions failed, but because we invest in making them better based on real customer feedback and evolving photobiomodulation research. The MitoPRO panel series, for example, is now in its second major version.

We are a real company with a real address: 9319 N 94th Way #400, Scottsdale, AZ 85258. Our U.S.-based customer support team is reachable by phone at 866-861-6486 and by email at info@mitoredlight.com, Monday through Friday, 9 am to 5 pm MST. We are one of the only red light therapy companies with an A Better Business Bureau accreditation.

Regulatory Status

FDA Class II Registered Medical Device

Mito Red Light panels are registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as Class II medical devices under the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). This registration is publicly listed in the FDA's official database — anyone can verify it at any time using our registration ID.

What does "FDA registered" mean? The FDA requires manufacturers of light-based therapeutic devices to register their establishment and list their products with the agency. This is a genuine regulatory status — it means Mito Red Light operates as a recognized device manufacturer under FDA oversight. It is not a self-applied marketing claim.

What is the difference between "FDA registered," "FDA cleared," and "FDA approved"? FDA 510(k) clearance and FDA approval apply to devices making specific clinical disease-treatment claims. Our devices are intended for general wellness use, which is the correct and lawful classification for consumer red light therapy panels. "FDA registered" is the accurate, truthful regulatory status for this product category — and we display it exactly as it is.

Select devices hold UL Medical Equipment certification to IEC 60601, one of the most stringent safety standards in the industry.

Power output (irradiance) and spectral output are independently measured by LightLab International, an ISO-accredited photometric and radiometric laboratory. Additionally, Mito Red Light holds BSCI certification and is ISO 9001 / ISO 14001 certified at the manufacturing level — covering quality management and environmental responsibility.
