What is the life of an LED underwater light?
A LONG TIME! At BoatLightsUS.com, we are boat owners just like you and we understand that the underwater boat lights and accent lights you install have to be reliable. Because of this, we have been performing Research and Development, including real-world testing of our products since 2004 in order to find the most reliable components to use when engineering and manufacturing boat lighting products. That is the short answer. In more detail, BoatLightsUS.com utilizes one of the highest quality LED components for our underwater LED boat lighting. These LEDs have a rated life expectancy of 50,000 hours. LEDs do not use filaments or other fragile components used by conventional underwater boat lighting (halogen, metal halide, xenon). Because of this, they have almost nothing that can fail when properly designed. And in more detail… 50,000 is defined as the time in which the median group of test LEDS produce 70% of their original lumens (light output) when operating at a specific current. E
