Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lighting lens technology, and in particular to an underwater miniature lamp. Background Technology

[0002] In underwater applications such as landscape lighting, aquarium aquaculture, and pool decoration, traditional underwater lights commonly suffer from water ingress failure due to thermal expansion and contraction. Specifically, during operation, the heat generated by the LED light source and driver circuit raises the internal temperature of the lamp body to 60-80℃, causing linear expansion of materials such as the aluminum alloy shell and PC lampshade. After the lights are turned off, the drastic temperature difference between the ambient water and the lamp body causes rapid contraction. A single thermal cycle can cause permanent deformation of the seals. This deformation accumulates continuously under more than 10 thermal shocks per day, leading to an expansion of the sealing gaps and ultimately causing water vapor penetration, resulting in irreversible damage such as electrolytic corrosion of the circuit board and oxidation of solder joints, reducing the average lifespan of the lamp to less than one year.
