Reolink Doorbell Camera/940nm IR throw light
I'm just setting this up, very impressed so far but being a doorbell cam there's not a huge amount of detail over say 2/3m away in the dark.
Can I just get something like this auto on/off 6 LED 940nm light off Ali Express and a POE 48V to 12 injector? Will the Reolink (850nm I think) "see" the 940nm light?

I know I can get a better camera, but am just building stuff up. Also think there's ONVIF commands like turn on when motion detected, but might need more research.
Cheers!

But guess I could go down the visible light route, would depend on the sensitivity of the PIR.
I wouldn't want it going off every time someone walked on the footpath, 940 gives you stealth.
