Pros: - Great Price!

- Works extremely well

- Super bright 49 LED InfraRed Spotlight

- Works great with DX cameras for nightvision.

Cons: - Spotlight, not flood

- None!

Other Thoughts: Bought this as an addition to my outdoor wireless security camera. Works great at night, lights up the backyard pretty well. I wish it was more flood than spot, but for this price I can't complain!

Bottomline: Buy it if you need a cheap nightvision light, but make sure your camera is compatable with the spectrum. Lots of reviews saying they can't see the light!

Great while it worked

Pros: While this works it has a LOT of output! It has a very narrow beam, at about 12 feet the spot was approximately 4 feet in diameter. This would be good for illuminating a driveway from a distance.

This has rubber O-rings around the bezel and glass to help keep water out if you have it outside.

Cons: This lasted less than 2 weeks before it failed. Now only 6 out of 48 LED's work. I took it apart and checked voltages, some LED's have 10 volts across them! I'm not sure if it was resistors that failed or what. I was driving my unit at 11V because I did not have a 12V power supply. That should give LONGER life, not less.

Bottomline: Buy it if it isn't critical because it may not last long. If it does last you will be pleased.

Great addition to my security system

Pros: Great price.  Simple to hook up.  Outputs lots of light (depending on camera).  Build quality is solid.
 
Cons: Wish it came with the power adapter. 
 
It would be nice to get a bit more flood and a bit less spot in the output.
 
Other Thoughts: I was under the impression that all cameras worked the same with IR.  Boy was I wrong.  I tried all kinds of different cameras with different results.  Camera phone (horrible).  Camcorder (better but not great).  Real deal security camera. (VERY impressive).  Cheap security camera (Sucks)
 
Bottomline: Works with all cameras but different ones have different results.

Ordered two -- one came with cracked lens

Pros: This is a cheap and bright IR illuminator. There are a lot of LEDs packed in there. It would take a lot of time to build one by hand.
 
Cons: I ordered two, and one came with a cracked lens. I don't know if it still works because I don't have a power supply here.
 
Other Thoughts: I wish DX sold a power supply for this too. I'll have to find one.
We are using it for infrared illumination of the internet's oldest fishcam, http://www.fishcam.com
 
Bottomline: They do not package these well. That said, IR illuminators are kind of a niche product, and it's hard to find them so economical.
