Default water infiltration led bar


I’ve installed led bar 1 week ago and there is already water infiltation in it. Yes it’s a cheap Amazon version but I wouldnt think it will be so cheap. Someone had the same problem? The led bar is ok with that insfiltration or the led will start to burn because of that? Something I can do?

When the bar will stop to work I will buy a better one. Or the better one has water infiltration too?

Thanks!

which bar did you have? I have 6or7 different bars on different ATV's that are submerged ALOT ,and only had 1 of them that took water. I have ,auxbeam,nilight,Kawell,and a the most expensive one is a Black oak led.If your set on Ridgid,You should look at the Black oaks

I have an Amazon bar I was putting on my YJ, my old boss who now works at 4wheel parts suggested putting cheap amazon bars up high on the windshield or on a headache rack to avoid moisture issues. If you want a bar lower get a ridged.
