I picked this up on eBay about a year ago. It works with the NightShot function on my Sony DCR TRV20 camera. This is an IR function, I think.
Here is the light
Here is another shot of the light
The layout is 4 AAA batteries, 2 on a side
Here is a shot of the LED's (2 of them) and the PCB
When I turn the light on, you can see a faint RED glow (this picture shows it as green, I guess my eye sees things differently than the camera).
I have 2 beam shots:
The first on at 1 foot
The second at 3 feet
My light meter does not register anything from this light.
I would like to figure out what this is and then
I would like to figure out a way to improve the light or find a light that works a little better. As you can see from the beam shot at 3 feet, the range of the light is only about 4 feet. The light will run with only 2 batteries in it on one side.
I am looking for a range of around 15 feet with a broad beam like the ARC-LSH at 20 feet or so (I can dream).
Thanks for your help and comments
