No, you can turn the lights on and off a million times an hour with absolutely no effect to the LEDs In addition OceanLED lights have no warm up time and no startup power surges unlike HID, which take at least 2 minutes to achieve full brightness and 20 minutes cooling time if the light is switched off and needs turning back on. This is a major advantage when integrating underwater lighting with an onboard security system.
