Works great for the right camera,

This review is from: YY Trade IR30 - 60-90 degree WideAngle 30 LED Indoor/Outdoor Long Range 50ft IR Illuminator (Without 1A 12VDC Adaptor) (Misc.)
I purchased one to test before investing in the 4 that I needed. I hesitated due to the lower star reviews. I think the key to good performance is to check the wavelength of the camera to see if it matches the illuminator. My camera is a Color Sharp CCD SP301 which came with the Defender security DVR. The Defender manual states the IR wavelength for the camera to be 850nm. This is what is listed for the illuminator. The camera has built in LEDs which do not fill the camera FOV and so results in dark areas at the edges. When using the motion detection DVR at night, this is a problem. In the spring there are many bugs and cotton type seeds flying around. When they get close to the camera at night they are very bright against the dark edges of the frame. The high contrast sets off the motion detection and I end up with way too many false alarms. With the IR illuminator placed a couple feet in front of the camera, the small specks are not as much of a problem since the background is lit up.
The illuminator lights the whole FOV of the camera out to a wall at 30ft, which great for the price. YY Trade delivered quickly so I am happy with both the product and service.

This is a good basic IR light for indoor/outdoor use to supplement IR lighting already built into your night vision security camera. I used this at the far end of my driveway to get better invisible illumination. I tapped into the 12vdc power supply that feeds my security camera, so the lack of an included wall-wart was not an issue. The LEDs do have a subtle red glow on the face of the light due of their frequency, but truly invisible spectrum LEDS have less range and can cause problems with cheap security cameras.

If I can give it zero star, I'll do so. According to the manual this should work with my wall power socket. However, I plug it in, and point a low-end IR camera to it, and nothing show up in the image. I open the case, and measure the voltage, the voltage is correct. So I think it's just bad circuit design or it need special power source. BTW: I checked my camera with a single LED of save wave length powered by a battery, the camera works fine. So I know it's the illuminator's issue.
