Same chemistry.
Different format.
Both products use methylammonium bromide in alcohol. When the MABr meets lead-bearing pigment, the perovskite forms and fluoresces green under UV. That part is identical. Here is what is different.

Where each makes sense.
Either is better than no test.
The point is to find lead before the blood draw. Whichever fits your house, get it and use it.
