Univivi Infrared Illuminator, 850nm 12 LEDs 90 Degree Wide Angle IR Illuminator for Night Vision, Waterproof LED Infrared Light for CCTV Security Camera, with Power Adapter, Black

This spotlight has much better range than I was expecting. The included power chord is fairly short, about 3 feet, so I had to run an extension cable to it. The day/night sensor seems to work well too. I haven't been able to verify how weather proof it is yet but I will update if any issues occur.

Item arrived well packaged and undamaged. Nothing was loose inside the metal housing of the light. I have had a few Chinese flood lights like this before with loose items rolling around inside which is unsettling. This one was solid and felt like decent quality. Anyhow, everything works on it. All of the IR LEDs work. I am using this IR light to supplement the built in IR of the Nest Outdoor Cam, which is very weak. It worked better than expected. The coverage in my backyard is wide without any noticeable hotspots. It makes for a very nice flood IR light experience providing light as far back as about 100 feet and wide as about also 100 feet. It came with a power supply that I plugged into an outdoor power outlet which is about three feet away from the light. I noticed after about 7 hours of usage that it does not get hot to the touch. Just barely warm to the touch. The light sensor works perfectly at turning the IR light on at dusk and off at dawn. So this is after using it for about a week. I will provide an update after a few months in our South Dakota winter to see how it holds up. Fingers crossed. At night, you do clearly see the gentle glow of 12-red led lights. Any burglar would notice this and probably be confused by what it is. It looks kind of Sci-Fi-ish. So far it is well worth the $39 I paid and I am pleased more than I thought I would be.

Outstanding customer service if you ever have an issue with one of their products I have purchased many of these lights and most of them have been operational over 2 to 3 year. Period already.

Great floodlights but no EU adapter. Have to make extra costs to buy these. Shipping was fast thow.

These are great... When I look out my back window, I see complete darkness.But when I look through my security cameras, I see this...

Our outdoor surveillance cameras make just enough heat to attract bugs and spider webs. Unless you run a rag around to clear the area every other night, the spider webs' movement sets off the alert. We figured out it is the heat from the built-in infrared LEDs. So we have turned off those lights, instead using this fixture mounted well off to the side and above the camera. This has more power = more illumination than the internal camera LEDs, and the wavelength seems identical to what the camera wants to see during night vision. Highly recommended.

This is bright as heck, it can even wash out your camera view if you aren't careful, however, it's not durable at all. Mine worked for about two months (conveniently outside the return window) before totally giving up the ghost. I would buy a different brand and model if I had to do it again.

So far so good. Mine does not get wet so I don't know about how long it would last if hung out in the weather. I thought it'd quit working but come to find out it was just the power supply that failed.

Amazing service. Came earlier than expected and works exactly as advertised.

Works very well covers my whole garden. Supplements the pathetic infrared illumination of my D-Link CCTV camera. I had struggled to find a decent quality infrared illuminator of reasonable size at a sensible price. This fits the bill nicely and has worked flawlessly for the past six weeks or so.

This just arrived a few days ago after a little confusion about delivery date. It actually arrived much faster than suggested on the website. Initial impressions are very good. Case is cast aluminum and appears to be well made and sealed. One caveat: where the power cable enters the housing, there is a nut which I assumed to be a waterproof gland that grips the cable tightly to provide strain relief. However, I discovered that a slight pull revealed the two wires within, so there is no strain relief. No damage was done and it took a few minutes to open the case and put a zip tie around the cable. (See pic.) Shouldn't be necessary but was easy enough to do. That the entrance isn't truly waterproof is not critical as it's on the bottom of the case where no water would likely be present anyway. A dab of silicone seal would seal it. Performance-wise, it does very well. The usable range is quoted as about 100' (30m) but I found that it did acceptably well to a measured 180' (55m) as the attached pics show. The camera is a HikVision 8mp analogue unit. They were taken with the camera's IR "on" but the difference is negligible with it off. . I could see two coyotes even when they were nearly at the tree line. (They are not in the sample pic.) As with all IR illumination, rain near the camera really "lights up", however. The AC-DC adaptor consumes 16w @ 120v. I tried splicing another DC lead into the cable that supplies 12v to the camera but the IR output was reduced, so it does need to be independently powered. The one unknown is long-term durability, which remains to be seen. But I just ordered another one to augment the camera on the other side of the property, which is only about 90' to the fence line. An initial test showed that the area was very well lit. (Updated Oct.13)

Very decent IR, throws out some good rays.
