Hiya. I used a POE power meter and checked out the power usage of my cams. The daytime wattage number is as expected; the night time wattage numbers are surprisingly low.

Should I be happy about this? Or should I be using more power and getting brighter IR lights out of my cameras? It is consistent across the brands. See attached chart.
