Possum Cam - all setup for tonight

Possum Cam – additional night lighting
Came up with the idea to increase the lighting by making an IR LED spotlight that will sit on top of the camera ice cream container weather housing.
Went through my CCTV stuff and found a few of these lenses with IR lighting.
