Made these a bit ago. Bit of PITA for my first time trying to figure out how to do 3 days worth of a timelapse. The software I used didn't do the video any favors...but...it did work in the end.

Both of these 5231r-z




Yes...this would have been that blizzard that was all over the news in Erie, PA. It really wasn't as bad as they made it seem though. Little bit more than a light dusting though :)

For those of you that don't have to deal with snow storms...this is what happens with IR...or really any light.

This is from my PTZ - SD59225U-HNI

What was the 3 day total?
 
Love lots of snow...

And I know what you mean about the IR with snow.. yikes. I'd like to have some more external IR. Of the four I bought, only one lasted more than a few months :(
 
Mind sharing which ones didn't work? I want to but have yet to go down this road as I haven't decided if I want to do IR or white led. In this case thermal would be awesome...but.
 
Yep, these cheapy ones here https://www.amazon.com/CMVision-IR3-WideAngle-Degree-Illuminator/dp/B008GTAPSO

I posted a review with pics of one taken apart, in Jan 2016.
Of the four I bought, one still works great (and it's been outdoors the whole time!). The others are long dead and gone. I scavenged one to try to keep them going, but it didn't last long.
I'd really like to have more that work and last...as they do really help!
