An infrared (IR) LED is a type of light emitting diode (LED) that emits light in the infrared spectrum. IR LEDs are often used in a wide range of electronic devices and systems as a source of infrared light. They are commonly used in remote control systems, security systems, and other applications where it is necessary to transmit information using infrared light.

This IR LED light is a 3W light, which means it is a high-power LED that is capable of producing a relatively large amount of infrared light. It is often used in applications where a strong, concentrated beam of IR light is needed, such as in security cameras or other types of IR lighting systems.

IR LEDs are known for their low power consumption, long lifespan, and good performance. They are also relatively inexpensive and easy to use, making them a popular choice for a wide range of applications.

This IR LED is designed to be used with Raspberry PI to allow for night vision recordings. It can be used without a aspberry PI as a standalone IR floodlight.
