Imagine being able to see in total darkness, it's easy with a CCD video camera and this neat IR illuminator! There's no- thing magic about this kit. It's just an array of 24 high intensity IR LEDs and appro- priate drive circuitry. The real magic is in the CCD video camera. CCD sensors are sensitive to IR light that you can't see. thus illuminate the scene with IR and the camera "sees" just fine. We've selected extra high intensity LEDs that are absolutely invisible to anybody (except for aliens and Casper), the whole board draws about 150-180mA at 12V DC. Small size allows easy hiding in clocks, smoke detectors, picture or any object your devious mind can think of. Pop a piece of smoked plexiglass in front (looks clear to IR) and you've hidden the light.
