LED vs IR LEDs for Reversing Camera: Comparing 4 IR LEDs vs 8 LED Lights for Night Vision

Hello
Question as in topic. I will only add that I have 2 options to choose from:

1. Four LEDs IR



2. Eight LEDs LED


Which of the highlights will work better in the dark?

ps.
Below are the links to the auctions, above cameras (I know that they can expire quickly).
Maybe for professionals, the descriptive part of the auction will shed more light on the given problem - it did not "enlighten" me

It all depends on the diodes used.
Looking only at IR pics although they will give a B / W image it will be clearer than LED.

Thanks for the quick reply

I understand that the descriptive part does not contain any data about these IR diodes?

Let me ask you:
- how long the "beam of light" can I expect?
- will it be more point, diffused or diffused lighting with a brighter point inside?

As I "worked" a problem with this topic:

I will tell you that all these "additional" LEDs around the webcam are just so-called "marketing trick".
Nothing replaces a decent bulb in the reversing lights. The bulb (or bulbs if there are two) should be at least 50W, as in the passing beam. Then there is no problem with visibility when reversing both with and without the camera. 21W bulbs typically used in reversing lights are actually just reverse gear indicators.
Here is an example of how you can make an adapter for the H3 (55W) bulb for the base of a typical 21W bulb, usually used in reversing lights.

There are also ready bulbs of more power with this plinth, for sale (already reworked).
