Title: LED light
Post by: kufferaths on April 21, 2007, 11:49:10 pm

How long are those LED lights supossed to last?  Mine is acting wierd.  It will go completly off then come on again but stay on the color red.  Or it will flicker then go off.  Is it the light or do I have some electrical problem or something?

It could be the light itself, it is electronically controlled.

I had mine factory installed but from what I remember seeing on the net theres a PC board that the lights are attached to and chips that control them. If the tub is new, I believe the LED has a shorter warranty than the rest of the tub - call the dealer. If the tub is older - buy a regular bulb, put it in and see if you have any problems ... if you don't then buy another LED light if you want one.

A typical 9 volt battery is rated at 500 mAh. See the link below. A typical LED takes 20 mA. So a 9 volt battery should run one LED for 500/20 equals 25 hours. 8)
