What do you do when you have a failure. I know they are rare, but they do happen even with Kichler.
Really don't see moisture problems in quality fixtures. As long as the lamp is IP65+ I don't worry about it.
I've only had 2-3 failures so far. One that was a path fixture and the irrigation guy put a sprinkler right next to it and was spraying under the canapy and eventually water got inside and destroyed it. Thats wasnt supposed to happen and the rep knew about it it was already being redesigned and since has. I replaced it and put a bead of clear silicone on that one and never another issue.
When there is a bad one just yank and replace.
I dont really like service calls, and that is a selling point for these fixtures to a client in that no yearly service or maintenance costs on fixtures themselves.
