1 lux camcorder

Does a camcorder have to be 0 lux to pick up infrared light?
I want to be able to shoot in complete or near complete darkness. The camcorder I’m looking to buy is 1.7 lux with it’s night time mode. I was wondering if I got an infrared light to go with it, if it would pick it up or if it has to be a 0 lux camera for that to be possible?
IR has little to do woth lux – it has to be sensitive to infrared light – period.
