RE: Scout Guard SG 550. Next Best Camera?
I noticed in the U-Tube videos that the outer areas are dark. Does anyone know what the angle of the LEDs is? and nm of the LEDs? Guess I will have to contact Will at HCO for my answer. I need a no glow IR so I went into the camera and cut the wires to the LEDs. Right now I am using an array of 72 950mn 36Degree LEDs with external 12V power supply that stays on all the time. The higher the nm, the less range, so you need more of them(getting great videos at 3 to 8 ft,good at 10, and acceptable at 15). Will try supercharging my next array with smaller value resisters to see if I get more range. Got it set up in the chickenhouse so I can see what is getting the chickens. If its Bigfoot I need a positively no glow. The internal LEDs operate on 3.4 volts and wont work if disconnected so I will either blackout or changeout the LEDs and send the 3.4 volts to a 3 volt relay to operate my 12v LED array with battery (plan to do this week). Love the camera, Have two now and plan to order more. Probably have guessed that my game(for videos) is Bigfoot
