Moisture Build Up in Submersible Tube

[Calsberg]

Hi bros/sis

I got me a new 6ft LED submersible light set and installed it about 3-4 inches below water level. Everything was ok until a few days back when I noticed moisture/condensation inside the tube when it is switch on - the build up is gradual and over after a few hours and behind where the light points are. When the tube is switched off, the condensation patches slowly disappear over a few hours.

Quite puzzled actually. Appreciate any thoughts on this.

I have half a mind to just change it with the LFS or opening it and heating the tube with a hair dryer then permanently sealing the end caps to remove moisture. Both are trouble some - haish...

likely moisture trapped in the space within the tube before sealing in the factory.
i've seen droplets within the tube before, didnt seem to affect the performance of the submersible light set.
