Maketheone IR Torch 3 Watt 850NM Infrared Light Night Vision Flashlight Torch - Infrared Light is Invisible to Human Eyes - to be Used with Night Vision Device (NOT Include Battery)

Very bright and cute but powerful. I wasn't expecting anything big, but this is a very impressive IR light, especially for the money. it’s small, but mighty. Best money i’ve ever spent on anything so useful and high tech invention. it’s adjustable from the front, twist the head it adjusts the focus. Small area focus works perfectly and very bright over 60 yards tested.

Very "bright" invisible infrared light source. Has a focusable lens that concentrates the IR light into a spot, increasing the range at which it can be used. NOTE: this unit only works with IR night vision devices and cameras. It will not let you take pictures in the dark with a standard digital camera or phone (unless you remove the IR cut filter most standard cameras have built into their lens assembly. That is not something a consumer should attempt). If you want a durable extra IR light source, that uses standard batteries, this is highly recommended.

Much smaller than portrayed (my bad for not making sure of size), and not very powerful either. Only good for very minimal hands on use. High-Mid grade only because the flashlight appears to be well made, and functions well .

I do not understand the high reviews this thing has received. It is garbage. First, there is no way to tell with the naked eye if this thing is on or off. If you don't pay attention, you could drain the battery down to zero while it sits wherever you store it. It should be a huge red flag when the designers didn't even think to put some kind of power on indicator. A colored ring, a sliding switch instead of a pushbutton. Something. Second, I work with thermal cameras. The most powerful in the world, so I had a perfect test environment and I can tell you this is a weak IR flashlight. Really, really weak. Beyond six feet, it is useless.

I originally purchased this IR flashlight to mount to my Vr headset as opposed to having lights on , or installing a stationary IR light in the office. For connecting to the headset the flashlight is a good weight, being one LED, lightweight material, and once purchased, installing a single AA battery. IT weighed in at less than 1/2 a lb. As far as brightness, in a small room it lit up the area fine for my use. (Granted I have the light mounted facing up to refract the light off of the roof and get splash lighting for the sensors to pick up. This worked for the most part, however once the light hit a moving fan it would interfere with the beam and I would lose tracking. Moving into another con, as previously mentioned by a poster the light does generate a bit of heat depending on the battery you use. This also affects the life of the light as well. Using a rechargeable 1350mah Energizer AA I saw a few hours of playtime without much heat. When I moved up to a 3500mah battery I was able to see much more extensive playtime, however, the flashlight was now very hot to the touch. Having a heat-generating item attached to your headset wound up being like a lump of hot coal gently resting against your head. A little too warm for comfort. As far as it goes it seems nice for off an on use under a short period of time, however, you will need to look forward to charging your batteries much more often. OR look at a much higher expense on your battery purchases. All in all, I think I'm going to have to go with the stationary light mounted in the room. Little less freedom and convenience for a touch more stability. That and peace of mind that my flash light isn't going to go up in flames after an expensive play period.

Device works well for nvg usage

Really powerful IR Illuminator for the price. Would work best in a handheld or helmet based set up. Almost too bright, and does end up autogating my Gen 3 Elbit WP tubes. Provides better IR Illuminator performance than most Full Power IR Laser/VCSEL set ups. I doubt it would handle long term shock from a Carbine, but definitely could be interesting to test out. Would also need to be installed really close to the muzzle, or else the end users will more than likely experience autogating. Extremely lightweight, takes AA batteries, and fits easily into a pocket. Perfect accessory or gift for the average NVG user.

No sarcasm at all. Seriously. I have a NS750 Nightsnipe IR Extreme that works fantastic at 1,000 yards. These tiny things have that matched. I’m not joking. I bought two and just ordered two more. I think my Nightsnipe was around 75 bucks so this takes up so much less room, they are incredibly light. I’m getting the same brightness from a 1.5 and 3.7 volt AA so I’m guessing the 3.7 will just last longer. If I end up melting the thing and/or if a regular AA only lasts a few min then I’ll update my post but so far I’m extremely happy. * Jul 22-Aug 24 back to say still 5 star and all 4 still work great. I can’t leave well enough alone so I tinkered around and reversed the lens on one plus it’s got a 3.7v AA. Totally unnecessary but It tightened view for longer distance. I’ll find a way to blow one up. See what happens when I hook it up to my truck battery. NO, don’t do this. Just joking but hmmm

This is a amazing additional IR light for night vision.....I bought it with a mind set of ok ..... maybe this will enhance the light quality with about 20% ......but I was pleasantly surprised It double the light intensity.....I can really recommend this after testing it

Ottima funziona benissimo, è economica e la luce IR da 850 NM emessa dalla torcia, permette un'ottima visibilità nelle ore notturne. Consigliatissima.

Ich habe die Lampe als Spielere gekauft um sie als nicht sichtbaren Aufheller bei Dunkelheit für meine Videokamera zu nutzen. Grundsätzlich funktioniert dies auch, jedoch viel zu schwach, da meine Kameras leider alle einen "zu guten" Infrarotfilter haben. Daher habe ich sie zurückgeschickt, da sie für mich nicht nutzbar ist, bewerte sie jedoch aufgrund ihrer guten Verarbeitungsqualität entsprechend. Für alle die also Kameras ohne Infrarotfilter haben oder halt wie eigentlich vorgesehen Nachtsichtgeräte damit nutzen wollen eine eventuell gute Infrarotlampe.

Excellent! Super bright, makes things look like daylight. Well worth the price.
