Desay vs Nanolumens

26 matched panels · 1.25 to 12.5 mm · specifications from both makers' datasheets

The two lineups side by side, then what the matched panels say about weight, power and what each maker publishes. Every figure is the maker's own; the planner adds nothing it cannot point to on a sheet.

Weight and draw are per square metre of cabinet, so different cabinet sizes compare fairly. Ranges run across every panel the maker has in the database, not only the matched ones.

What the sheets say

• Desay and Nanolumens overlap on 26 matched pairs between 1.25 and 12.5 mm; outside that band one of them has no comparable panel.
• Desay is the lighter cabinet in 11 of 26 matched pairs, Nanolumens in 12, and 3 are within 5%. Across their lineups that is 22 to 44 kg/m² against 25 to 51 kg/m².
• Desay draws less at full white in 10 of 26 matched pairs, Nanolumens in 13, and 3 are within 5%. Lineups: 531 to 760 W/m² against 383 to 808 W/m², which sets the circuit count.
• Cabinet formats: Desay builds in 500×500, 800×900 mm; Nanolumens in 240×150, 304.8×152.4, 300×168.8, 600×337.5, 500×500, 1200×675 mm. A shop that already owns one format keeps its bumpers and cases.
• A hanging limit is published for none of its 18 panels by Desay and for none of its 41 panels by Nanolumens; where it is not, the planner uses a conservative placeholder and says so.
• Both publish a typical draw for every panel here, so the typical kilowatt figure rests on the sheets, not on an estimate.

Matched panels, side by side

Each pair is two panels of comparable pitch, one from each maker, with the same wall built from both.
