How far will the IR work in total feet and in large dark rooms and what is the clarity In IR mode also what is the time of battery life in IR mode.

it was pretty great, but in dark rooms no there is not much to do in dark,clarity is great but when zooming in or out while recording it may at times became blurry for a sec, battery wise is great it runs good I'm not so sure but maybe anywhere from 2 hrs constant use to 6 hrs if are not using much in the day.

I can not tell you the exact resolution, however, I can tell you that I can easily see small details of faces, clothes etc. as if you were looking out the window at them. Of course, the resolution of the monitor is the limiting factor. IR range is about 20 feet or so. Any farther and you can not recognize the person. It is NOT weather proof.

I have my camera set up where the person has to walk within 8 feet of the camera and those are recognizable. As for the infrared, I don't know.

I returned mine after realizing the IR worked for about 6 feet, not nearly enough for night recording unless you're parked, you get what you pay for

These units are in the 808 to 850 nm range, i.e. if you look directly into the unit when it is on, you will see the red LEDs. However, if you move say 45 degrees from directly in front of the unit, it is harder to see the red color. The unit is very well made and I have been using it every day for over a year. The housing is water proof. If you want a unit that does not glow red when on, look at the CMVision IR-200 which emits over 900 nm, so you can not tell the unit is on, plus it emits more light at a longer distance and cost only a little more than the IR110. The IR-110 is totally silent (no small fan), while the IR-200 has a small, very quite internal fan. Both units can be mounted outside (waterproof). Either unit will give you excellent service and work with B&W security cameras. Hope this helps.

Not sure off hand. The IR light is visible to humans though, if that is what you are referring to. You do have to be in front of the light in order to see it. The estimated range of 80 yards for the IR is pretty accurate. Much farther if a reflective object. One thing about this scope that isn't mentioned anywhere is that after powering up the scope and the view is green you can turn it off and still have the same night vision. I have even taken the batteries out and it still works!

I had poor results. IR function was erratic at best with a tendency to go on and off randomly as well as staying on. Fairly bright LED set. mine was mounted about 15' above surface, 60 foot width is pushing it for decent even illumination. so maybe I just got a lemon...maybe not. It's been shut off for months.

Very short range, if you had an extra IR light in the room it would help. Mostly for day IMO.

This is an extremely large IR light source for 12 Cubic Foot space at a distance of 2 or three feet. I suggest you go to an Electronics Tech. in your area to use maybe 2 IR LEDs to light the area. Or, you could go to jameco.com and purchase a PWM dimmer for your large IR LED device. Pulse Width Modulation will dim the IR LEDs, but you need to research whether the turning on and off of the LEDs will bother the Owls! Contact the Electronics Dept. of your local University for ideas. It's not a big deal to dim IR LEDs, but I'd be concerned about how this would effect the results of my research. Building a simple 1 or 2 IR LED assembly would be simple. Check for the wave length of your selected IR LEDs. Humans won't see much except for a dim redish light, but what wouldl your Owls see? You can purchase IR LEDs of different wave lengths to use in your research project. Hope this helps.

The HC4000 comes with an IR remote. According to the manual, the remote has range of 10m (30ft).

I would think it to be ok, i have ised mine in hot humid ohio, and blistering hot new mexico, and had no problems, the only bad thing that o had happen os the IR (night vision) led's started dying after about 6 months, this can be verified by using a cam corder at night and i could see the ones that stopped working, i used mine for a front door monitor, so i initially just installed a floodlight for night recording, eventually i just built my own IR board with parts i ordered online, and that only cost aroumd 30, but i put much more IR's than the camera originally had, and angled the edge ones to get a bit more coverage, other that the nigjt time problem, camera is decent enough quality, i never had any issues with viewing or recording, it even put a good image to my phone, but i have an imdependent computer i use for security monitoring, recording, and broadcasting

No, not IR only. You can test the camera shots in IR. You can set it up for motion, which will capture IR or daylight.

SecureCam (SHARX) is being VERY conservative when they tell you the IR range in total darkness is 45 ft. It's more like 45 meters. I have a few of them and they light up object easily over 100 feet away. In fact the IR is so strong I disabled one of them. I use a small $5 IR LED panel which lets me illuminate off axis from the camera. This actually gives me a better image as the shadows help you distinguish more features.

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.

IR is line of sight. If you can't see the sensor it won't work. That goes for any IR receiver. You would need RF (radio frequency).

so far i've looked about 100 yards without a problem. If you are looking directly at the unit and know what you're looking for there is a minimal IR glow that can be dimmed with the touch of a button

they have a blue tooth to IR converter. I've read about it but I can't find it.
