Night Chaser-500

The Night Chaser-500 Marine Night Vision Camera is a medium distance Infrared PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom) Camera optimized for hostile environments and temperatures to below -30° F and above +130° F, and is weatherproof to IP66 Standards.

The integrated Infrared Spotlight points where the camera is looking and throws out a wide invisible lighting beam up to 500' away. The Infrared Spotlight also varies the power and intensity, depending if the camera is zoomed in or out. This Synchronous IR Intensity feature has proven that it can increase the lifespan of the IR LED's up to twice as long as constant power units. Night Chaser-500 Night vision camera
