I used what Dave gave me, which was an aluminum enclosure with two sets of 4 tube cathode tubes and an HDPE cover plate. I powered it with a 12V jump starter. With the target at the opposite side of my office at home (about 20' away) the number of tracked pixels was very small and the camera would occasionally lose the target and jump back into the search pattern.
