I use two to illuminate the front yard & a 3rd for the deck, works really well with my Axis camera systems, dawn dusk sensor is perfectly calibrated. The front ones are exposed to all weathers & have held up really well with no issues, although I did used adhesive lined heatshrink to seal the power cable joints just to ensure they remain watertight. All in all excellent value, the beam could be considered a little narrow but with only 4 emitters this is to be expected. If you need to cover a larger area consider a bigger unit, or multiples covering specific areas.

It's awkward to place without screwing it down, but otherwise works pretty well. Very robust feeling. No visible controls of any kind, instead it uses a photo receptor or something to switch on in the dark. I'm using it for VR, and it works great for that.

Los acabados son los esperados por este precio, pero funciona perfectamente.Lo compré para usar las gafas de realidad virtual Meta Quest 3 en la oscuridad para mayor inmersión y funcionan perfectamente, lo tengo en una esquina de la habitación apuntando al techo.Hice algunas pruebas con una cámara de video antigua con visión nocturna e ilumina bastante, pero si le quito el cristal tintado con el que viene la diferencia es abismal, ilumina como 10 veces más.Se lo he cambiado por un cristal de metacrilato satinado que he cortado a medida. No se si para las gafas RV es necesario, porque cuando hice las primeras pruebas no parecía que tuviera problemas de rastreo aun con el cristal. Es muy fácil de quitar, va enroscado. De paso aproveché para desenchufar el sensor de luz de la placa de circuitos para que esté siempre encendido, lo enciendo y apago con un interruptor Tapo desde el móvil.De serie viene con un sensor de luz y solo se enciende si la luz está apagada, lo cual no está mal, pero me parece que también regula la intensidad, además igualmente para este uso no me interesa que esté encendido toda la noche, por lo cual el sensor no me sirve.

This illuminator is just barely mediocre. The angle is not as wide as you might think, although it is bright. My unit was powered on for less than 30 hours total before the LEDs stopped working.

Well, if you have the Oculus Quest 2 or any other VR headset that has IR tracking then this is the product for you. Basically, allow you to operate VR in total darkness (VR see the IR), so others can go to sleep. These lights are cheap and does the job very well. I point the light away from me so the light is not as strong. The reflecting IR light from walls is good enough.

I purchased 2 of these. One for my back porch and another one for my front porch. Both porches are covered. These are working so well with my Wyze cams to improve night vision. It turned night into day! They have held up well and had no issues with moisture inside of them but they are in areas where they are protected so that is helping I am sure. These are made to cover a smaller area. If you have a larger area that needs coverage I would recommend getting the larger IR Lights. Very pleased with these for my purpose!

Erhellt sehr schön, wo das Infrarot meiner Dahua Cam etwas schwächelt. Abstrahlwinkel geschätzt ca. 90°. Ich habe zwei davon gegenläufig (einer nach links, einer nach rechts strahlend) montiert, um den Video-Bereich in der Distanz von 5m von oben optimal auszuleuchten. Die Stromversorgung habe ich übrigens über PoE Splitter am PoE Switch mit Y-Adapter am 12V Kabel gemacht. Alles kein Rocket Science, nur zusammen stecken. Perfekt und würde ich so wieder machen!

Arrivato nei tempi e ben imballato. Il montaggio è semplice e ben spiegato nelle istruzioni. La luminosità è buona in considerazione che coprono tranquillamente una decina di metri con un angolo di apertura però abbastanza chiuso, non illuminano per intenderci molto lateralmente ma solo davanti. Da tener di conto che una volta attivo, ed il sensore crepuscolare funziona benissimo, i led risultano visibili ad occhio nudo ma non lo trovo un problema. Ormai li utilizzo da qualche mese all'esterno (non pioggia diretta) senza avere problemi

J'étais un peu septique mais ça fonctionne.. Avec une mini caméra espion de 2,5 cm cube, déjà équipé de 4 led(pas très puissantes), n'enregistrait rien dans le noir. Avec ce projecteur, on voit les led, mais le résultat est bluffant. J'ai une image ( rose, mauve) mais une image propre. Pas très loin pour ma petite caméra espion, mais certainement plus loin avec une vraie vision nocturne. La moindre source de lumière supplémentaire, même infime, apporte une meilleure portée.J'en suis très content..

The good: I have a camera set up looking at my house from 30-40 feet away. The IR illuminator is a few feet ahead and to one side so that the camera doesn't pick up every bug that flies by (which happens when I use the camera's built-in IR LEDs). The IR illuminator lights up front of the house perfectly, looks like daylight.If you have this illuminator and you are not seeing similar results, first check that the illuminator is working at all. At night the 4 LEDs should be glowing red, bright enough to see at night. If you don't see the red LEDs either your unit is broken, your power supply is no good, or the daylight sensor is seeing too much light. Second, maybe your camera is not sensitive to this wavelength of IR. Mine's an "Amcrest UltraHD 4K (8MP) Outdoor Security IP Turret PoE Camera".The sort-of-bad: The IR LEDs glow red. This thing is not "stealth" at all, four glowing red dots in the bushes at night are pretty obvious. But this is true of most IR illuminators.The bad: It worked fine until it started raining. About a month after the first rain it died. When I disassembled it I found it was half-full of water. Further inspection showed that the connector for the wires from the power supply board to the LEDs had rotted due to being submerged in water. I cleaned everything and dried it out, then I removed the bad connector and soldered the wires directly and now its working again. I will reassemble using generous amounts of sealant in the hopes that I can make it more waterproof than it was from the factory.The front "lens ring" and the rear cable entry are the only places I see that it could have leaked. The side bracket mount holes don't seem to penetrate into the interior. Both the lens ring and the rear cable entry have rubber seals, but at least one of them (and maybe both) didn't do its job properly.I removed one star for the poor waterproofing. If you buy this I suggest you re-waterproof it before putting it out where it will get rained on.

Very well made IR Light that comes with the power adapter. Needed it to help our security camera night vision get better coverage.Was originally planning on installing it under the eave overlooking my driveway next to our security camera. Unfortunately my driveway eave is too low & the angle hitting our cars was way too bright (hitting the windshields). So I ended up putting it inside our upstairs window, looking down at our driveway at a 45 degree angle. Our security camera can now see our cars 100% better, can now view the sidewalk & part of the street too.Know that the 4 red IR lights are clearly visible to the human eye & it's not weak as most security cameras IR lights are. You can actually see it from down the street! I was worried at first about it being highly visible to everyone, but it being visible actually deterred some people from breaking into our cars recently. Our security camera showed them on the sidewalk in front of our driveway, pointing up at our window where the IR light is & moving on to our neighbors instead. The next day we found out both our next door neighbors' cars got broken into. They probably thought the IR light was a high end security camera just like our neighbors did.One thing to note about this IR Light is that the unit can get pretty warm/hot if left in direct sunlight.Seller is also very nice, knowledgeable & helpful with questions about the product too!

Dead on arrival. I get the lamp and then wait till night when its pitch black outside. I open up the display for my night vision camera, plug in the lamp and the little green light on the power supply comes on and then I look at the display for my camera and nothing. I only see the ir light already coming from the camera. Nothing from the JC illuminator even if i point it directly at the camera, a few inches away. I tried covering the daylight sensor just in case, even though its pitch black outside, and it didn't help. I checked all the connections and wiggled the cables etc, and nothing worked. Apon closer inspection inside afterwards I noticed the film on the glass was already bubbling up, which even it it was working would probably affect performance. Not even worth the trouble to send back since I dont have a ups dropoff anywhere near me. Buyer beware.
