Fdit 10W 12V RGB Submersible Spotlight with Remote
A cheap colored accent light for pond edges, not one rated to live underwater.
The short version
- People adding a colored accent light near a pond, fountain or garden bed
- Anyone already running a 12V low voltage supply outdoors
- You want the light to sit underwater full time
- You need a stated warranty, beam angle or cable length before buying
What owners like
- Low voltage RGB spotlights of this type give a lot of color options for little money
Common complaints
- The stated IP-65 rating does not match the submersible marketing, since IP-65 is a water jet rating and not an immersion rating
Based on The Amazon listing, the IP code definitions on Wikipedia and a comparable fountain light spec sheet at Super Bright LEDs. No independent owner review set for this exact light could be read..

What it does
A small aluminum 12V color changing spotlight with a remote, sold for ponds, pools and aquariums; this page covers the Fdit version as the closest current match to the original Patec light.
- Color changing RGB LED in a compact spotlight body
- Remote control for switching colors
- Aluminum housing
- Runs on 12V low voltage power
- Marketed for fish ponds, pools, gardens and aquariums
A fit for someone who wants a colored accent light at the edge of a pond, fountain or garden bed and is fine with a basic remote. The main trade-off is the rating: the listing calls it submersible but states IP-65, which covers water jets, not continuous immersion, so lights rated IP68 are the safer choice for full time underwater use.

Questions
Can the Fdit 10W pond light go fully underwater?
The listing calls it submersible but rates it IP-65. That rating covers water jets from any direction, not immersion. IP68 is the rating meant for continuous submersion.
What voltage does it need?
12V, per the listing. It is a low voltage light, so it needs a 12V supply rather than a direct household connection.
How do you change the color?
With the included remote control.
What is the difference between IP65 and IP68?
IP65 means protection against water jets. IP68 means protection during continuous immersion under conditions the maker specifies.
