After alot of building, modding and testing i think now is the time to show and tell about my homebuilt IR-flashlight and my Nightvision webcam 
First of all there is some videos on Youtube about how you make your webcam see in the dark. It's quite simple as a matter of fact, since all you need to do is to disassemble it and just remove one piece of glass inside.
Here is a video on how you do it (sadly not the best quality):

When u finally have made the camera-mod you will be surprised how good it can see in almost no light at all, but i wanted to spice my pics up alittle so i made a torchlight and a IR cannon so i could take pics in total darkness since the human eye can't see infrared light
IR-Torchlight info:
I bought a small LED torchlight from a local store and disassembled it and unsoldered the LED's, but not all at once since you have to mount and solder the IR-led in the exact same position and you can't mix up the polarity on them. Just unsolder one at a time and make sure you locate positive and negative on the LED before you unsolder it and then check before you solder the IR-LED.
My first mistake on the torchlight was that i probably didn't heat up the area enough where i was about to solder, so all my IR-LED's wasn't working at first. A quick re-solder fixed that problem anyway (but you also have to be careful when heating up the soldering area since the IR-LED's are quite sensitive)

The IR-Cannon:
This was a bit easier since i bought a pack of 28 already mounted and soldered IR-LED's.
The description that came with it said that i needed 12-18 volts to power it so i figured for a long time on how to power it up, but the solution was simpler than i thought. I just needed a batterypack with 8 1,5 volt AA-batterys. So all i needed to do was to solder the positive cables from the LED-pack to the same polarity from the batterypack, and then the negative cables to the power-switch. I then glued the batterypack directly on the back of the LED-pack for now (for easy handling) and it works like a charm and uses only about 300 mAh

Later on i am gonna install it in a small box, hide the cables and mount the power-switch properly, but it'll have to do like it is for now
And here is the result from the IR-Cannon shot in complete darkness:
