This handy flashlight has seventeen infrared LEDs that illuminate your target up to 13' at night so the video recorder can capture the images. That's pretty cool, but this would be a pretty useless flashlight if it were only infrared. For those that don't know or haven't tried, you can't see infrared with the naked eye. Thankfully, the maker included a white light LED main light in the middle of the infrared lights so you can see what you're recording. What good is catching that garbage rummaging raccoon red handed if you can't see the look on it's face?
The unit will set you back $199.95 at Hammacher.
Product Description from the Website:
"This is the only flashlight that illuminates subjects while capturing their actions on video. With the heft of a tactical police flashlight, it produces three levels of brightness from its 3-watt cool-white LED main light. Seventeen infrared LEDs encircle the main light to provide night vision illumination up to 13' for nighttime recording. Video and snapshots are captured at 30 fps with 640 x 480 resolution by the color CMOS sensor (night vision footage will be black and white) with a 66° field of view. Up to 15 seconds of video and 500 snapshots can be stored on the built-in 128MB memory; supports up to a 2GB mini-SD memory card. A USB port connects the flashlight to a computer to download videos. Built-in microphone records sound clearly. An LCD indicates battery life remaining, recording format, time, date, and storage capacity. Requires three C batteries that provide up to three hours of operation (as light; one hour for video). Durable aluminum construction. 13" L x 3" Diam. (1 lb.)"
