Reading all the questions...this is a visible light that turns on and not a non-visible to the naked eye IR illuminator?

I'm not sure what you mean by a non-visible IR illuminator? This is a motion detector run by batteries and it does not turn on if there is light which is really good. It has been working fine for me and I am going to get another one. It stays on for 30 seconds after there is no motion detected. I hope this helps?

This might be the best ten bucks you ever spend. We use it in a dark entry closet. The light comes on instantly when the door is open and shuts off soon after the door is closed. You will not read the Wall Street Journal with this light but you will be able to pick out the clothes you are looking for. Since time at the closet is usually a matter of a few seconds I expect the batteries will last a very long time. We have had the light for about 3 weeks and are very pleased with our purchase.

it senses motion anything that moves . makes no different what it is . it will not detect IR illuminator. it will not detect heat or cold temp. Motion only.

It has a red beam I noticed at night, technically not sure if its laser or infrared.

Yes, the brightness of the IR LEDs is controlled by the sensor. The less light the brighter the LEDs. The sensor has an IR filter so it does not see IR as light.

The lights are infrared so the are on but you can't see them. The brass screws are to lock it in position once you have the angle of the camera set.

Well...., I've never heard a peep from it :). But I do know that the light illuminates whenever the internal thermostar has tripped allowing power to flow to the device plugged into it.

The non visible IR lights are a longer wavelength = your eyes cant see them. Unfortunately most CCD/CMOS camera sensors are also less sensitive to the longer wavelength IR so it is a trade off between you being able to see the faint red glow of the shorter wavelength IR, or the camera not getting as much illumination at night from the long wavelength IR.

They are infrared lights, you won't see them light up. They are on all the time the unit is powered.

A naked eye cannot see IR lite. Only if someone is wearing or using night vision device will be able to see the IR ligby emitted. This scope can be used with or without the IR light. Nights with ambient light from moon and stars it is possible to use scope without the IR light.

Yes. It is visible, however it doesn't seem to upset or startle critters even though they can see the dim red spot. I measured the wavelength at work with our spectrometer. Center wavelength was measured at around 840nm with about a 100nm bandwith. If you can find a 940nm emitter (flashlight or flood light), it's completely non-visible. I have a 940 IR floodlight I attach to a 12volt 7.2 amp hour battery that lasts roughly 8 hours for me. Hope this helps!

Hello, I bought a light source that looks exactly like the one pictured here. So, it is probably what you are researching. I have been told that my cameras need 820 to 850 nm, but when I hooked up the ir light, there was no illumination at night. If I turned the light directly to the camera about 8 feet away, the front panel of the light was white, but it didn't illuminate anything when turned away, I mean nothing. What a dissapointment. I don't know what else I can try. The ring of ir lights that are inside the glass dome around my cameras are useless, if I turn on those lights, the glare from the glass dome is way to bright to see much of anything.Good luck, Dan Hello, I bought a light source that looks exactly like the one pictured here.

As with all IR lights I am aware of, there is a dull red glow if you look directly at the emitters at night. This camera has fantastic night vision.

There are small infrared lights for night time vision. It's not too bright but bright enough for the camera

No. The light is invisible to the naked eye. It operates in the near IR fequency ranges not the human visual frequency range.

It does not have IR, it uses an LED which can be on, PO, or motion activated.

when u use a ir illuminator on bell and howell camcorder built in infrared can u see more clearly to get around it the dark

if the illumination is off, the reticule is black, if it's on, it's red. There are also varying degrees of illumination so you can make it dimmer/brighter to suit your needs

Please note that the product specs indicate that infrared LEDs are used to provides an alternate light source to supplement visible light for the camera 'see' in low and no light conditions. It is not to be confused with night vision which amplifies whatever visible iight is available.
