I have a TV remote that uses an infrared LED, I want to boost the signal it generates as much as possible (heck, if it were possible to get a giant infrared laser cannon - I'd do it). It's worth noting that it pulses at about 55 khz, so audio amplifier circuits probably won't work for it (a bat detector goes up to about 100 khz, would that be suitable?).
I'm too inexperienced and lazy, to be honest, to build a complex circuit to amplify it. Does anyone know of some way I could do it?
I considered trying to add a mosfet to an old IR illuminator I had, but since I can see the red from the LEDs (whereas I can't see them with the TV remote) I'm assuming it's a different wavelength.
