The two cheapest in a category

Each pair is the lowest and second lowest verified price inside one category page.

One brand, one step apart

Each pair is a single brand's cheapest verified model at two neighbouring steps, which is the upgrade question rather than a brand contest.

Nothing here is called best. On the brand pairs each side is its brand's cheapest model carrying a verified price at that max output current, so neither is a flattering pick. On the model pairs the rule that formed the pair is printed on the pair's own page. The difference column is arithmetic rather than a recommendation.

Prices and specifications verified September 9, 2026, and re-checked weekly after that. 76 head to head pages: 36 brand pairs across 6 values of max output current (a value gets pages when at least four brands publish a priced model at it, which is why some in the catalog have none), and 40 model pairs, each formed by a rule printed on its page and each with a verified price on both sides. How these numbers are checked.
