DI20 IR Illuminator | Long Range Infrared Flood Light for Security Camera (w/Power Adapter)

This is a really small light (D120) which is great if you want something that is unobtrusive and works well (indoors) such as in a room at night or in a garage where people keep generators, tools, etc. It really DOES light up the garage for me. It really does make a difference for my garage cameras. Outside, no. It just does not have it from my point of view. It barely made a difference outside on my driveway. In my garage, I have it in a corner and it does a great job. With the garage door closed and the 36 inch metal door with half glass, it does come on so my solution was to put a smart plug on it to have it powered up about a half hour before sundown and about a half hour after sunrise. During the day, my cameras do fine in the garage. So while the light was sensing enough darkness to turn on inside the garage during the day...that is no longer an issue with the smart plug. Maybe if you have a very short driveway and you have two of these lights then "maybe" OK outside but probably not. For outside, get something bigger. I can't stress enough how small this light is...square but about as big a front as a softball but just an inch or so wide so it really is unobtrusive and very easy to hang. Where people are getting it is some kind of miracle light outside for security cameras at night-I just don't see that.

Installed 1 Dec 2023 and is a well-made solid product. It comes well packaged and with sufficient installation accessories. Installation was simple and additional cable can be purchased if needed.Using it for a WYZE V3 and it worked great. Nighttime illumination of the yard was good but it quit working witin 60 days.I checked the transformer output and it was in specs. Power is traceable to the unit but it does not generate any IR Illumation. I verified this with a military-grade IR light wavelength identifier. Additionally, the unit reads ambient temperature on the scanner (no Heat at all).Not sure if this is a random QC issue or not.Update: the seller contacted me and offered and shipped a replacement for the IR illuminator. He was very open with my issues and the company is definitely customer service oriented. I updated my rating to 4 and my current feeling is this is a random isolated issues with this product. I will follow up after using the replacement IR illuminator.Update #2I have updated my review to a 5. The replacement illuminator has performed flawlessly and I definitely would purchase another unit from Tendelux. Thank you Tendelux for a great product and customer service.Update #3 30 March 2025The replacement illuminator continues to perform flawlessly. This is definitely a quality product and seller. I would recommend this seller and product.

For: Tendelux DI20B IR Illuminator | Long Range Infrared Flood Light for Security CameraProvides good infrared illumination at night, so it does help the camera provide a better night-time image, hoever, it still does not help the camera"obtain crystal clear images at night." as the product-description suggests. Hence just the 4-stars

I upgraded from an older infrared (IR) light to a new LED model, and the difference is incredible! The new lights are reliable and provide outstanding illumination. With versatile mounting options, I use this IR light with my security cameras, as the built-in lights aren’t sufficient in low light. The transformation is impressive—it's hard to believe such a small device can emit so much invisible light. Installation took only about 10 minutes and a ladder, but this upgrade has been a fantastic investment.

I was having problems with spiders and insects screwing up the motion detection at night. Several people on Reddit suggested a separate IR Illuminator and turn the IR off on the camera. I made a wooden bracket to mount the Tendelux on the soffit of my garage. It worked really well and was easy to run the wires.I picked this illuminator because it looks good and the distance it was suppose to cover. It definitely exceeded my expectations. The picture showing the coverage area at night was amazing. It lights up the whole side yard and most of my neighbor's yard!The only slight negative comment would be that the 12VDC chord from the power adapter is really short. I probably should have ordered one of the extension cable, but extension chords worked out okay!

Cannot comment on the actual function of this item. I was not able to use it because the cord is too short and the plug is too large to fit in a standard outdoor outlet cover. The size of the plug connector is not documented anywhere on the web description or in the package. I contacted the manufacturer to research the connector size to hopefully find a compatible longer cord that would work with my installation. The manufacturer/seller did not respond to my inquiry. Will be returning.

This is exactly what I needed for my camera. Had an area of the yard that was too dark to see well as the camera's built in infrared light didn't reach far enough. This lit it up bright as day (just in black and white).

Unit died about one week after return period at Amazon. Unit lasted 36 days and died in a storm from water intrusion.I emailed Tendelux Support and they replied very quickly, they have sent a replacement unit that should be here in a few days 😁I will update my rating ⭐⭐⭐ after it survives this winter's elements as while it worked, it worked very well and lit up the area well.Tendelux stands by their 18 month warranty it appears, if the next one is sealed better I definitely will be getting more if these.
