mPulse cabins use what Sunlighten calls PulseIQ: red light and near-, mid- and far-infrared are delivered separately, with the intensity of each controlled by the program you choose, rather than blended as in a full-spectrum heater. Red light and near infrared are built into the heater panels rather than added as separate panels.
You pick a program on the sauna's tablet or in the Sunlighten app: heart health, detoxification, muscle recovery, relaxation, weight loss or anti-aging, or a custom session. The app can start, schedule or adjust a session remotely. These program names describe Sunlighten's intent; they are not medical claims we can verify.
Unlike the Signature and Amplify, mPulse cabins are not sold with a price on Sunlighten's US online store. Sunlighten gives mPulse pricing through a request form or a sales consultant. The store does list mPulse add-on packages, priced below.

What it costs to run
Rated draw runs from 2,160W (mPulse Aspire) to 5,580W (mPulse Empower). At the July 2026 U.S. residential average of 18.31¢/kWh (EIA), an hour at full draw costs about $0.40 to $1.02.
Real sessions usually cost less, because the heaters cycle once the cabin is warm, but warm-up time adds to it. Put your own rate into the running-cost calculator.
Before you order
- Ask for the delivered price in writing, including any add-on package, before you compare it with an Amplify: the store lists Amplify prices, mPulse is quote-only.
- Empower needs a 240V 30A circuit and a NEMA 6-30 outlet. Conquer and Discover need 240V 20A (NEMA 6-20). Aspire and Believe need a dedicated 120V 20A circuit (NEMA 5-20).
- mPulse cabins are 79 in tall, slightly taller than the Signature and Amplify. Leave room above for assembly and airflow.
- The app and remote start rely on Wi-Fi reaching the room where the sauna stands; check the signal there before you settle on the spot.
Delivery, assembly, returns and warranty are the same across Sunlighten's range; they are covered in our Sunlighten review. We have not tested Sunlighten saunas and do not rate them. Specs come from Sunlighten's product pages and US store; confirm current specs and prices on Sunlighten's site (opens in a new tab).
Other Sunlighten collections
- Signature: The Signature is Sunlighten's simplest cabin: far infrared only, one button to start, and the lowest cabin prices in its range.
- Amplify and Amplify RED: Amplify is Sunlighten's hot one: far infrared plus halogen full-spectrum heaters, up to 170°F. Amplify RED adds red and near-infrared light panels.
- Solo System: The Solo is Sunlighten's no-room-for-a-cabin option: you lie on a heated pad under two sliding domes, head outside, and it folds away.
