They're really thin gels, so, for a short period of time you're probably OK. As a permanent installation, I'd think you'd want them protected from the water.

I don't think I would put them in water but they do have floating tealights these lights are very pretty tho and you woulnd'nt be disappointed my daughters love them.

I agree with M.Giese. Do not submerge them. I do think they are very water resistant. Very heavy rain. They could be made pretty much water proof with very little effort

I have two, one is exposed to weather. Both have worked flawlessly. I think they are very well made and certainly intended to be mounted outdoors. Submersible, probably not.

The lights water resistant and very durable. They include a Gore Tex vent tube that allows for temporary water submersion up to 1 meter. Thank you, OffRoad Innovations

I used them as dome lights but I am sure as long as you Dont submerse them in water they should be good. Tiny amounts of moisture won't short or damage them. And they a SMD LEDs so you can always dry them without damaging them.

They work outside with low voltage, however, in my situation,they are protected from direct contact with water. I suspect they would still work for low voltage lighting, even if they were occasionally wet

I don't keep them in the pool other than when we need them. We turn them on and off out of the water. Too many stories of the lights leaking from being left in the water for extended periods of time. Hope this helps..

I used them outdoors, no problem. They were however, inside a light fixture.

No!Will be OK in a heavy rain but no good for total submersion. Tekna Light makes several lights that are dive rated.

I can't say what is best I. Your circumstance. The lights are a half circle with adhesive on the flat side. The adhesive isn't the best to use around water or anything in motion as the lights can separate from the surface they are adhered to. I did mount the lights in my live well; I mounted them to the horizontal side and went over he top with clear Duct Tape. They have done quite well. I left the tape about 3/4 to 1 inch beyond the lights themselves.

I have mine in a marine environment, in my boat with no problems for three years, wouldn't recommend installing them in direct sunlight. Make sure you order them in white.

I would doubt they're "waterproof". You an disassemble them easy enough so you might be able to make them waterproof with the help of a little silicone sealant. 3M makes a silicone spray (very thing) so conceivably you could just spray each one with the 3M stuff and you're good. I will add our kids have loved these - especially at night when they're cruising fast they look really cool. Batteries lasted just under a year for us. I believe we bought a package deal that came with 3 sets.

I suppose if the seal is watertight it would be fine. But there's another issue: I find that these bulbs have to be changed every 2-3 weeks, so you should factor that in. It's a real pain for me and may be more so for you with an underwater environment. I've had halogen bulbs in the past and never had them burn out so quickly. I have to assume it's this particular brand.

I don't know about that one. I do know they are completely sealed and waterproof. I think the lights themselves would hold up well. I'm not sure about the wires though. I ended up using 3M high grade double stick tape to ensure they won't come off.

There is no indication on the light that they are waterproof, and here I believe you mean submersible. When I installed them on my utility trailer I did caulk around them to protect them from the weather. The lights have been on the trailer several months now with no problems.
