LED Submini
Our miniature and sub-miniature LED lights are the smallest, lightest LED penlights you can buy. The sub-miniature is smaller than a cigarette in length and width. The miniature light is thinner than a cigarette and only 10cm long! Battery life is extraordinary. Brightness is incredible for such a tiny light.

Using our modified FSC-F717 infrared sensitive camera, we took a picture of the various LED Mini lights. The violet one on the left is a 400nm ultraviolet light. The far two lights on the right are 880nm and 940nm infrared lights. The 880nm and 940nm lights are not visible to the human eye. You need an infrared sensitive camera (such as NightShot camcorders) or night vision equipment to see the light. Notice that cameras cannot simultaneously focus on UV, visible and IR light. This is because the wavelength affects the focal length on the lens. If you focus on IR, the visible light won't be in focus. In this picture, we focused on the visible white light so the UV and IR lights are not quite in focus.
Here you can see our LEDMn400 with the 400nm LED illuminating invisible ink. Note: 400nm will illuminate most UV fluorescent inks; depending on the ink or dye, it might not work as well as the 375nm LED or 365 fluorescent tubes. The 400nm is less expensive than the 375nm LED unit and much smaller. The 400nm is very well suited for automotive leak tracing dyes which are tuned for 400nm lights. 700mcd output with peak at 400nm. This is the same LED that others rate as a 395nm LED, however, though they are looking at the minimum frequency, not the peak.
Note: The lower the wavelength, the more expensive the LED. A UV 400nm LED cost much less than a 375nm UV LED. Because of this, we have found that many flashlights are incorrectly labeled to show a lower wavelength than what they are. Since we have a spectrometer and integration light sphere, we can test the flashlights for actual power and wavelength. With some of our invisible inks such as invisible red and invisible yellow, a 365nm light will work well while a 400nm light will not.
The LED Mini and LED Sub-Mini lights both use 3-volt Lithium BR435 batteries. The LED Sub-Mini uses one battery while the LED Mini uses two batteries. The BR435 batteries, as you can see from the picture, are rather small. We stock the BR435 batteries at great prices.

Description
We have 850nm and 940nm variations of our Pro Series IR illuminators. The 850nm will emit a very faint red glow while the 940nm will not. However, the 940nm LED's have about 1/2 the power and IR sensitive cameras are not as sensitive at 940nm. If you absolutely need a covert light source, then you should use a 940nm unit, but a 850nm unit will give better illumination.
The lights are also available with either 25 degree or 70 degree beams. A 25 degree beam is a more focused spotlight beam while the 70 degree beam is an IR floodlight. The spotlight beams will shine farther while the floodlights will illuminate a large area directly in front of the unit.

- 810nm Infrared Wavelength
- IP66 Sealed
- 100-260 VAC Integrated Internal Switching Power Supply
- Power Cord Not Included. USA termination is optional
- Beam Angle 160 Degrees
The Flood-810nm-30Wt floodlight is a unit custom made for us with 810nm IR LED's. Typically, IR illuminators and cameras with IR illuminators use 850nm IR LED's. The human eye can see some infrared though not very well which is why if you look at a security camera at night that has an IR light source, you can see a dim red glow. The human eye will see this illuminator more, but only if you are looking directly into it. The eye won't be able to see infrared reflecting off an object. Since camera sensors have peak sensitivity around 550nm, an infrared sensitive camera will see this illuminator better than an 850nm illuminator.
IR Flashlight FAQ
Below are answers to common questions concerning infrared (IR) flashlights.
How far will your infrared flashlight work? This depends on
- The IR frequency of the light
- The sensitivity of your camera or Night Vision Device (NVD) to that IR frequency
- The power of the light
- The size of the beam
What is the difference between the frequencies? IR ranges from 725nm to 1700nm for the Near IR (NIR) range. Lights fitted with a low-cut IR filter, like a 715nm, will pass 715nm through 1200nm. Lights fitted with a high cut filter, like a 1000nm, will pass 1000nm through 1200nm. A 715nm light will emit a slight red glow when you look directly into the light. A light with a 1000nm filter will look completely black when on. However, a 1000nm filter will make the light less powerful since it is only allowing a smaller portion of light through.
This brings up a very important point. The lower you go, the better the light will illuminate, but it will be more visible. As you go to higher frequencies, the power of the light will drop.
What is best for my camera or NVD? You want to chose the lowest frequency possible while still maintaining the covertness you require. Lower frequencies will work better but won't be as covert.
- Typical consumer camcorders with NiteShot can see to about 1200nm.
- Typical Night Vision Devices (NVD) can only see to about 880nm. Don't get a 1000nm IR flashlight unless you know specifically that your NVD can see that high. Most can't!
Can you give me an idea of the different frequencies and covertness?
| 715nm | Light gives a cherry red glow when looking into beam. Slight visible red light projected |
| 780nm | Light gives a dull cherry red glow. Very slight visible light projected |
| 830nm | Light looks black unless very close to front. No visible light projected. |
| 850nm | Light looks black. No visible light projected |
| 1000nm | Light looks black. No visible light projected. Above range of most NVD's. Most covert beam |
Typical Light Distance Ranges
| Type Of Light | Camcorder | Typical NVD (this varies) |
| 715nm, 2 AA battery | 25 feet | 30 feet |
| 715nm, XNiteFlashSTG | 50 feet | 100 feet |
| 880nm Single LED | 5 feet | 10 feet |
| 940nm Single LED | 4 feet | 0 feet |
| 715nm 2,000,000 candle power | 300 feet | 300 feet + |
| 830nm 2,000,000 candle power | 250 feet | 300 feet + |
| 1000nm 2,000,000 candle power | 150 feet | 200 feet (because of power, NVD still sees some of this light) |
