so I can shoot vaqrmints in my yard at night. Those store bought lights are way too expensive.evil_smurf wrote:I found a how-to on the "interweb" about how to turn your standard home webcam into an infrared camera. I did it and I must admit it was very cool seeing light you've never seen before. I even noticed the IR port on my laptop was on and I didn't even know it!
But, on to my question. Does anyone out there know how to create a home-brew infrared light that you can use that's much "brighter" than the lights on, say, a TV remote? Researching the subject a little I have come across information that a regular home lightbulb puts off much more IR light than visible light, is there a way to wrap the lightbulb in some sort of a filter that blocks visible light and only lets the IR light through?
There you go, gun related.
