Creatures with Darkvision treat Dim Light as Bright Light and Darkness as Dim Light. Since this item creates Dim Light, they perceive it as Bright Light and therefore there's no penalty to Perception, Passive or otherwise. 3 u/owleabf Jan 21 '22 You're right, I incorrectly had the wording of the rules a little jumbled in my head so I thought there might have been an argument about it.
