Living out here on an island surrounded by salt water has given me all kinds of entertainment keeping sealed or submersible incandescent trailer lights working after being dipped in the chuck. No matter how much I’ve tried to protect them, the salt always won the battle, even with ‘the ‘submersible’ ones which are open to the atmosphere (and the ocean) on the bottom.
When submersible LED trailer lights hit the market, it was like manna from heaven! I threw the old bulb type ones as far as I could and replaced the lights on all of my trailers with submersible LED’s. Problem solved! No more wasting time replacing bulbs, wiggling wires, or maintaining them. A true plug n play operation, just hook up the trailer, plug in the lights, and go!
LED trailer lights come on sale and are very affordable for the long run. Do yourself a favor and replace your old incandescent ones. You wont regret it.
