JCHENG 12-LED IR Illuminator Night Vision Effect
Before Camera with Its Infrared Light VS After Camera adding with JCHENG 12-LED Infrared Light
Before the camera relies solely on its built-in infrared light during low light or nighttime recording.The range of visibility is limited, leading to darker and potentially blurry footage.After notice how the JCHENG 12-LED IR Illuminator compensates for the limited range and dim lighting, providing a clear and sharp image.
Issue Investigation: IR Effect Falling Short of Anticipated Performance Observed in the Video
Three Key Factors: 850nm Infrared Light/Installation Tips/Focal Length of Security Camera Lens
1. 850nm infrared light-based Camera: To ensure optimal performance, it is crucial to verify that your camera is equipped with 850nm infrared light technology. Note that variations in lens coatings and sensor settings can impact the effectiveness of infrared light.
Distinguishing between 940nm and 850nm, cameras using 850nm infrared light will display a subtle red glow at night while emitting invisible infrared light. On the contrary, 940nm infrared light remains entirely imperceptible to the human eye and LEDs during night operations.
2. Installation Tips: Proper installation is essential. Position the IR illuminator sensor facing downward to avoid sunlight interference. Ensure that the IR illuminator is installed parallel to the camera for optimal performance. Adjust the white lighting to prevent sensor disruption (automatic activation occurs when ambient light falls below 15 lux). Avoid positioning white lights directly facing the camera and IR illuminator.
3. Focal Length of Camera Lens: For enhanced distance coverage, choose a camera lens that can clearly capture distant objects. If the camera can effectively capture daytime images, the Infrared illuminator will help maintain clear visibility similar to daylight conditions.
By following these guidelines, you can enhance the performance and accuracy of your IR distance monitoring system.

It didn't work like in the videos used in the marketing of this product. It was a waste of my money. I'm thinking of getting something more powerful. It's still cheaper than getting a new camera system the camera I'm having IR issues with works great in the day time at night I use the porch light it works. buy this product at your own risk.

I have a couple of these lighting up a backyard and driveway, so that the security cams can pick up activity better. Plugged into 2 smart plugs that are programmed to come on at night, they work great.Update: The power adaptors get extremely hot, and one died after a year. So be prepared to find quality replacements.

Despite good and bad reviews I went with this IR Illuminator. I have been very pleased as the distance I needed to illuminate was well beyond the limited range of the camera IR lights. My experience was positive, the light was wide enough for my usage and extended out to beyond 100 feet. I have only been using this three days but my experience has been positive.I did not use the included power supply as I had to mount the illuminator a fair distance from the power supply. I ran a two conductor wire of a larger gauge (Cable Matters) to the light to minimize any potential voltage loss. I also used a more powerful power supply as the distance involved was beyond normal. I had the impression that the included voltage supply and any pre-made two conductor wire was not up to the job. Water resistance seems to be adequate. We had a very serious rain storm last night and everything continues to work properly even though the illuminator is not in a protected area..

I have a couple of outdoor cameras one mounted on a shed. The IR on that camera was not working well for the size of area I was trying to monitor. The area, my driveway is 25ft x 170ft from the shed where it is mounted along with one of the camera's. I can now see deer walking at the far end of the driveway at night. My other camera is located at the far end of the driveway and I don't need to use it's IR at night as well. You can see in the picture how far away the shed is.The unit case is metal and glass and seems good quality. There is a dim red glow from the lights you can see at night.

One of the LED’s Does not work. Received it yesterday and noticed it tonight after installing today. The 11 remaining LED’s are super bright but I don’t have a lot of confidence in the quality of this unit. I’ve been using an 15 LED unit from this company for 8 months with no problems. Just didn’t need that much range for this application. Very disappointed in this purchase.

Faccio questa recensione dopo il secondo acquisto, il primo è stato effettuato circa un anno fa. Tutt'ora fa il suo magnifico lavoro, permettendo alla telecamera di riprendere una stradina lunga circa 30 metri, passando da una scarsa visione a quasi giorno. Visto che ha superato anche gli infiniti temporali di quest'anno, ne ho acquistato un'altro per il giardino.

Funciona bien e ilumina con claridad un area de 12 metros de ancho a 8 metros de distancia. Sería mejor que viniera con el adaptador de 220v

Excellent illuminator. Using it with my Nest outdoor cam for my backyard and it's fantastic! provides very bright and wide coverage without needing to leave the outdoor (visible) lights on (illuminates a fairly large area quite well). Easy to install and came with a power supply. Be sure to buy an extension cord to fit between the power supply and light if needed (they're not expensive at all). Good build quality and looks to be water tight as well.

Lights up the night like it was daylight. Filled in my gaps well. Check the before and after photos. I just wish this came with a mount that would tilt as well.UPDATE:After 1 year and 10 months it is still going strong. See the last two pictures I've attached (dated 2019). In the first of those two pictures you can see it still lights up the dark spots. In the second of the two you can see where it is mounted and how it is still just as bright as the day I got it (look at the left side of the shed). I'll be purchasing more to use at my parents' house.

Bought 2 of these lights and I think they are great. Very powerful and light up a wide area in my back and side yard. Allow me to see things about 200 feet away with fairly good clarity. Have increased the effectiveness of my IR cameras 100%. Price was good and the lights are very well made.

This ir light is good. When buying one please don't just look at the manufacturers distance or power ratings. choosing a very powerful light can have totaly adverse affect on what u see in image. The good cctvs have aperture in the lens, that will open n close to match the intensity of light.If you buy an ir led that lits up to 50m, it depends on situation. For eg you installed 15w behind your house to lit a 50m garden, and you have few cars or vans at 10m distance and the gate at 50m distance. You may be assuming that camera will clearly show the white van and your black gate at 50m. No it wont, the ir light will make your vehicles parked up at 10m so bright that the cctv will have to tighten its aperture reaulting in darkening the overall image, hence your gate will turn even darker than it was without the ir light.If in such situation, try to buy couple or more less powerfull lights and place them around at different place to get proper vision.Buying just one big powerfull wont always work as intended.If using indoors and postioning along with the camera will give harsh affect, try to bounce it to the ceiling and you get proper 3d affect.See my pics without the ir light and with the ir light bounced.
