What is the  IR wavelength of the illuminator for Arlo Q Plus?

I'm using camera behind a window (not double glass) while turning off IR.

Learned that the wavelength of an External IR Light should match the IR wavelength of the camera.

Camera specifications don't provide this information.

Would appreciate it your sharing with me if you got this info.

 

Thank you.

All Arlo cameras use 850nm IR LEDs. Some have reported that the longer wavelength 950nm lights have worked adequately but 850nm seems to be much more common so, why not?

 

You could also consider normal motion detection lights which would be brighter and provide color recordings.
