Arlo Ultra Camera Spot Light

Does anyone know how bright is the spot light for the Ultra camera in terms of lumen? Arlo does not provide this piece of information on the datasheet.

Thanks.

It's not as bright as the standalone Arlo lights with are rated at 400 lumens. It's adequate to get color recordings at night but won't light up a yard.

I found I liked the standard night vision better than with the spot light. Standard night vision had few artifacts and distortion with greater contrast. In a confined space it may be beneficial, but outside I would stick with standard night mode. Lumens are too low to be really helpful in an open space outside.
