With the {visible) light rings, even if there is a significant IR component, your eyes will react by blinking, squinting, or turning away. The issue with IR only sources is this defense mechanism doesn't apply.
In addition, it's really easy to increase "brightness" by adding LEDs. Unfortunately, there isn't a obvious indication that the resulting power output is approaching levels of concern.
