If that would work then silicone caulk would work as well. Getting all
the air out would be difficult.

What about a silicone? The dive industry uses a silicone in dive computers.
It is poured in and remains soft, but the top dries to a hard skin. It is
very clear so the components can still be seen through 1/4 " or so of the
stuff. I have no idea where you would get it tho, I will ask around.

There were some posts here last fall about using 12 Volt LED's (from,

Newark

Electronics). I tried it -- made a few lights -- they run off 12 VDC,

draw

only a few Watts - and are very bright when grouped together in 4's.

You need to wire them together and pot them in waterproof epoxy.

You can get the LED's in white, yellow, green, blue, red. Blue, green and
white look the best to me. I still need to identify a good potting epoxy
though, the stuff I used for the prototype wasn't too user friendly.

Anyone have any ideas for some homemade submersible pond lights? I

remember

someone posting about using automotive headlamps, but they are a real

draw

on the power transformer as they run about 55 watts if I recall

correctly.

Any ideas?
