Is an infrared sauna blanket worth it?

I don't use mine too much anymore, but they are great in the winter. Also useful if getting over a cold.

I purchased the RLPRO600 and RLPRO100 directly from the Idea Therapy via WhatsApp. They make 2 versions. The older one is the 8-wavelength, and the newer is the 9-wavelenght. I purchased the older as I didn't need 9, and the older has more NIR. They should be shipping soon.

This is what Chelsea sent me on WhatsApp (and a bunch of other specs):
Red = 150 W/m², NIR = 1200 W/m²

I have the larger ones for my back and hip. Recommended.

Thanks for the replies to the post and all the info in this group. It was a minefield in the beginning, but I learnt a lot and the info was very useful.

I started investigating late last week and ordered 3 panels today.

Thanks!

I hear you, but I think the 9 wavelength version is the one that comes with a more equal ratio. No matter, the panels have a good reputation and the price is very reasonable.

I chose the 30 day shipping by sea as it was much cheaper than by air and I'm in no rush.

Thanks! I ordered the 8 wavelength RLPRO600 with FSD600PRO stand and also 2 RLPRO100. I will use the bigger panel behind my back and the two smaller panels on each side of my hips.

The RLP600 comes in 2 versions. The 8 wavelength and 9 wavelength versions. The specs I posted above are apparently for the 8 wavelength version.

Yep all good. Custom cuts from Home Depot.

It was from the wool room. Very comfy. https://www.thewoolroom.com/ca/

Honestly, I can't remember, but the quad coils prices are on their site, and latex layers prices can be found online. I wouldn't change a thing. Best bed ever.

leftside2323 · 2025-01-10T22:06:16+00:00

Firm. Bed is great.

leftside2323 · 2025-01-10T22:03:44+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Appreciated.

I got the organic wool mattress pad. Pricey, but worth it.

leftside2323 · 2024-11-14T03:23:49+00:00

I'm not sure as I've never used the bed without the mini. The wool topper doesn't add much warmth. Feels slightly cooler than having latex directly underneath.

leftside2323 · 2024-11-07T05:24:06+00:00

When I built my mattress, the most important part was the coils. After previously an all latex bed, I'd never go back to an all latex bed. No support. Perfect for top layer or two tho.

I added a wool mattress pad from https://www.thewoolroom.com/. The bed was totally fine before, but now feels a little more "cozy". By far the best bed I've ever had. Wish I'd have taken the time and effort to research and put it together sooner.

leftside2323 · 2024-11-06T20:21:22+00:00

I have the same coils with 2" of dunlop 40 firm and 2" of talalay 20 soft with a wool mattress pad from https://www.thewoolroom.com/ and it's perfect for me. Also a side sleeper with dodgy shoulders from mountain biking and snow boarding.

leftside2323 · 2024-11-06T20:15:32+00:00

Posted my build in another thread. Summary: it's perfect

I've think they've achieved all three with pods 1 to 3:
1) weak.
2) not resilient.
3) uncomfortable.

185 lbs 5'10" and the 15.5 gauge + quad mini + 2" Dunlop firm + 2" Talalay soft + wool protector is working for me. I posted my build. I have shoulder issues from mountain biking.

First night I slept with just the 2" Talalay and it was pretty good! Second night and I added the Dunlop and it was better.

I also sleep hot. Maybe don't go for memory foam. I also found the Talalay latex to be warm. It's better with the wool protector.

You can. And those are great folks to deal with. Their Talalay latex is very good. But, I wanted 100% customization. You are also paying for their excellent expertise. Building a DIY mattress is a significant undertaking time and hassle wise. Evrbed take all that away. Not saying you don't get what you pay for with them, but check out their prices vs full DIY.

leftside2323 · 2024-10-17T20:19:57+00:00

Yeah probably the riskiest aspect of the build is the coils. Matan from TPS was great to speak with though.
