24 customers mention19 positive5 negative

Customers like the performance of the light bulb. They say it works well, gets the job done, and is still working. Some customers also mention that the quality is good and the product is perfect. Overall, most are satisfied with the performance and quality of the product.

"For small distances, this product worked perfectly. I'm adding electronics to my cornhole board so that I can illuminate it at night...." Read more

"...I was skeptical but these worked great and are still working. Saved me big bucks on not having to buy a new ice maker!" Read more

"...For basic short range work, though, they will work well." Read more

"...my IR project is not working and I cant rule out the emitters yet." Read more

7 customers mention7 positive0 negative

Customers are satisfied with the quality of the light bulb. They mention that the LEDs are great for replicating the signals, and have a decent amount of range. Some say that they have no issues with the components.

"...photo diode with supplied IR LED and at ambient light, IR LED has pretty good response on the voltage swing, even the multimeter port generated..." Read more

"...and view them to learn how they work, and then the LEDs were great for replicating the signals to try and control the devices myself...." Read more

"...The LED emitter has a decent amount of range too, depending on the resistor used, or at least that is what I found in my experience with it." Read more

Do not attempt to use IR LED-Photodiode pair as stand alone device.
5 Stars
Do not attempt to use IR LED-Photodiode pair as stand alone device.
Product was what was claimed. 10 of 10 IR LEDs were functional. Human eye cannot see IR wavelength so I used my camera to "see" the LED's light. I used KY-026 module (IR photodiode plus amplifier circuit) to test the transmission distance (photo). Max transmission distance approx 50cm (Max current limits the maximum distance).10 of 10 IR photodiodes were functional. Current generated from an IR source was very low (nA-uA range). Other reviewers stated that they failed when using this LED as the IR source for the photodiode. Given the LOW range, failure is not surprising. Use with a suitable amplifier circuit MAYBE successful.
