slicedcornbread Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Do you have those wired to the key switch so they're on all the time? Looks nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riddler Posted March 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 The Raptor Lights are already fading and flickering. The bulbs are garbage. I am betting on the sealing is junk. 30 day return policy is over at Amazon. The best I can do is go the same vendor again, and swap the bulbs. I will try sealing it myself. The kick in the ass was I posted a review and amazon rejected it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just throwing this out there; There's usually some venting going on, vent goes down @ install, if you need to reseal make sure there's some kind of venting or you'll get condensation in the bulb housing....

I don't know. I am guessing for the light failure was from rain going inside. What happens with ipx7 standards? There a vent there too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know from my own experiences, i had some leakage in one of my fog lights & sealed it so tight it didn't breathe? had condensation all the time till i replaced the whole thing...

The Riddler Posted March 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Just pulled out the lights. Clearly there is water that got inside 3 out of the 4. Going to seal the light cover seam on the replacement and monitor. Really have nothing to lose since I am returning the defective ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillZ Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) You could probably blow some compressed air around the outside of that light and see the water inside moving around. You'd be able to see where the water is coming in from at least Edited March 5, 2021 by BillZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes absolutely zero sense not to have the lights to buy. What happens when the lights burn out? Buy a new grill?
