@pixuma I got them from eBay, just search for '850nm led' for the ones which are slightly visable to the human eye, or '940nm led' which is invisible to the human eye.
Looks like it could work on regular cameras without a filter, but when you weren't directly facing the camera I'd say the infrared light did a pretty good job of lighting up your face for all to see.
The LEDs were just stuck in some breadboard for testing purposes, the point of the video was to demonstrate the difference between a camera with an IR filter and a camera without an IR filter.
One day I might tackle the task of hiding my face using IR LEDs from cameras with IR filters, but not today.
The IR LEDs I used are 5mm with a 850nm wavelength, meaning if you look at them directly you can see a faint red glow with your naked eye, the 940nm wavelength IR LEDs are completely invisible to the naked eye but aren't apparently as bright on IR cameras & night vision monoculars/binoculars.
The LEDs used have a forward voltage of 1.2v to 1.5v with typically 20mA power drain.
given 2 IR leds one at 850nM and the other at 940nM what you will find depending on manufacturer it is the camera Band pass filter that determins the light amplitude fall off as in most cases the the QE of silicon will be sensitive down to 1.18uM remove the filter and both LEDs will produce the same luminous flux ,given they areboth equil to start with.
what is this STUPASS try to show

Do you know where you bought these LEDs?
I'm working on a little project that requires the use of quite a few infrared LEDs and i'd like to be able to order them knowing that they're bright.

kipkay? a comment I read on another board about one of his 'hacks' sums up what I feel about him:
kipkay is a hack and a fake not a hacker.

I have a question, can this same effect be achieved on cameras during the day with regular cameras, say outside and during the day?

what kind of IR LEDs have you used please ?
What is the electrical power consumed by these LEDs ?
Thanks !
