10 watt LED's

Re: 10 watt LED's
Here are the pics of the completed setup.




Took it Lake Wazee today down to 120'.  No leaks!  Worked well in close range but needs to be farther away from camera.  I was at the lake with Tammy and we shared ideas about lighting.  I need to spend more money and get some addition LED's.  Setup needs to have two 'pucks' with 2-3 LED's in each and a seperate battery canister.  My setup was a little top heavy.  One big advantage over HID is that you can turn on and off the lights as needed, no delays or warmups.
One complaint I've heard about with LED's is that they don't seem to penetrate the water well.  My thought on this is because LED lighting doesn't use as big a reflector/lense as other lights, therefore not able to light around particles in the water.  Using a puck with more than one LED in it will help this issue.  Any how I'm back to the garage to create a new system, I'm happy my idea with the seals worked, will make the next system easier.
