Just purchased this product and tested it out. It DOES NOT reach 15-25feet and barely can light anything up in the dark. Waste of money.

This light works very good. It is easy to connect and does what the instructions says it will do. Fun to watch the videos and see the difference in using it and not turning it on.

This product does not work, light is extremely dim. I do not see how this can be use for night vision when the light source can hardly even be seen turn on.

The item title says it’s an infrared night vision video light. It is NOT infrared. I think they sent me the wrong one or something. It’s decent for when you need some actual light, but it won’t enhance your camera’s night vision capabilities in any way. I’m keeping it because I could use a spotlight when I shoot, but I bought this thinking it would be an infrared light like the description said. Very disappointed in this dealer.

I kinda hurriedly ordered this product. I had seen it on a BestBuy webpage but they said they didn’t stock it anymore. That’s when I discovered Amazon. com. They not only could get the Sima, but have an excellent reputation as well. I’m so gratefull to Amazon for maintaining the Highest Quality. Anyway, when my order arrived I was delighted, at first. In order to get a good quality picture with your camcorder (I used my Sony Handycam with Niteshot(R)-DCR-HC28), you have to use two SL-10IRs. With constant usage, the max. time for decent illumination lasts for only 40sec. s. Concomitantly, they take over 2 hours to recharge and the red LED charging light does NOT let you know when fully charged.
As a Paranormal Investigator, the use for this light is extremely limited. I have relegated it to “emergency use only” in my electronic/video arsenal!!! One thing that I feel is pertinet to this review is that Sima has reportedly discontinued this model. Their newest SL-20IR has much better illumination, but similar usage & recharging time.
