Worked well until I pulled the plugs out. Both broke off at the wire connections to the light.

I have one,so far so good.

Yeah will the plug hang there for long trips?

I cut the wires shorter, just enough to be able to reach and locate off the bottom, so that when I wanted to remove it I just unplugged it. Hooked it up to a spare switch on the dash for ease. The shorter wires allowed it to turn w/o twisting the wires off. I tried it for a couple weeks, then took it out.

Same here. I complained, returned it, and they sent another one. ...it lasted about 2 months. In their defense, they stand behind their product, but as I mentioned to them - it needs a little more FMEA.

We use our boat alot, and I remove the drain plug everytime we get off the water (as I think you should). The wiring harness just wouldn't hold up to repetitive twisting.

i wonder what the ins co will say when they do there investigation and find out the boat sunk because the drain plug leaked because the epoxy broke loose,good luck,il pass and buy real underwater led lighting.

For those having problems. Would you mind replying and saying which light you have? The cheap $50 unit, or the more expensive $300 one?

As for removing it at the ramp and letting it hang for the trip home.....common sense would have to prevail at some point in time. The boat I did the install on seems to drain just fine when he removes it after getting home. 6 days of sitting with the light out seems to allow all the residual water time to escape.

I've had 3 of these - all failed due to twisting of the wire harness.

I have two of these for over a year now, I pull them out every weekend. Reinstall them when I am back at the water, so far so good

+1 . You get what you pay for! I would be very careful what goes under that water line.
