Did part of your camera's mod include removing the internal IR blocking filter?
It's interesting that the image ended up being monochromatic rather than
the CCD pixels with the red filtering being more sensitive than the blue and
green ones.

Yes, I bought the camera through Hutech. They remove the IR blocking filter and replace it with clear antireflection coated glass of equal thickness, that way autofocus si still accurate and the chip can recieve unfiltered IR light. It can "see" a hotplate before it gets to red heat.
For normal astroimaging I use an IDAS uv/ir filter where I dont want IR light coming through
