Hello

I would like to make a 2 or 3 led of this, so I can see in the dark with my mobile.

I can see the led butt they are very weak.

How is this possible?

What must I do?

THANK you for your help!

Your camera probably has an IR filter that filters out the infrared.
If you want to see the infrared better you will have to remove that filter but this is quite a hard job.

This looks like it would work:

Super low lux cameras are big $$$. This guy did not do his research before posting his project.

You can pick them up from eBay for less than $30.
Looks like you didn't do your research before posting your comment.

I can't get the Super Low-lux camera.. Could I use the same micro camera from the "Spy Sunglasses"?

[noj4888]

Are the LEDs in this project the same kind of LEDs in the Anti-TMZ Paparazzi Glasses video on youtube.com?

[Malchaevious]

Probably, the both projects/videos were the same person.

More of his stuff at kipkay.com

[pie_man]

could some one please give an actual website to find the camera

[Xandaa]

Where can I find the micro cam? how do I know it senses the IR from the LED's?

[Frank,C]

[shihoukemi]

could you use a wireless micro camera? where i live there are only of this type, it can be used for this project? thanks

[asdfjkl1324]

will .05 lux work?

[IRQ_VET]

Hey cool project but i had a lil question about the 470 ohm resistor where does it get placed?

[niggsy1985]

by the looks of the circuit, the 470 ohm resistor will sit on the posotive leg of the single LED (the led to indicate that the power is on) and it looks like there will be two 10 ohm resistors attatched to the posotive legs of the IR LED's. hope that helps.

[KaptainKaveMonkey]

how long does the battery last?

[swirlycurly]

how much does the micro camera work and where is a website to buy one at that will be suitable and not total crap.

[asdfjkl1324]

Where did you get the low lux micro cam and how much did it cost.

[superdave5481]

Great deals on cameras at Deal Extreme.

[lopagof]

2 questions, what is the voltage of the low lux micro cam by itself and... where did you get the low lux micro cam, I have been searching for 1 for a while and cannot seem to find one. Maybe I am not searching hard enough, but where did you get yours?

[Trogdor0013]

I was wondering where you got the micro camera from and how much it was.
