I get a lot of requests for 940nm IR but when customers realize that they lose a lot of IR distance they usually go for regular IR.

I've done a fair amount of work with 940nm for Police work. You lose IR range, but if you're doing work in the woods, it's pretty important. For building/indoor/resi work, I don't really see the point
If I were a comedian, I'd make a joke about not really seeing the point. Invisible IR humor!
But that is actually the point. If you want to better mask where your cameras are located/aimed in the dark, 940nm helps. I think that applies to most any application.
