Avoid panels that only have a two year warranty.Panels under £12 will go yellow, ripple or warp much quicker.

When it comes to LED panels price does indicate quality. Choose a panel that is at least £12 - 30 (or £30 – 50 for higher end).An aluminium plate that protects the components.The better the back cover fits the frame, the better the heat dissipation which means the panel is likely to last longer.Cheap plastic heat sinks don’t work as effectively as metal heat sinks and can reduce the life expectancy of the LEDs in the panel.This helps to prevent LED panels from overheating as a conductive metal heat sink takes away excess heat to keep the panel cool.A poor quality heat sink will mean not enough heat is dissipated from the LED chips which can cause the chips to burnout.Issues with the reflector plate can cause glare.This reflects light back into the light guide plate.
