vsshe Pool Lights (2 Pack) Rechargeable Submersible LED Lights with Remote, IP68 & 16 Colour Modes
Product description
What this is for
If you’re trying to add a bit of mood lighting to a pool, hot tub, pond or aquarium, vsshe’s 2-pack of rechargeable submersible pool lights is designed to make it easier than battery-powered floats. The big pitch here is that the lights are rechargeable (with a built-in lithium polymer battery), and they’re meant to be used underwater with an IP68 waterproof approach.
In day-to-day terms, it’s the kind of kit you’d choose when you want colour options and a timer, without constantly replacing batteries. The remote control is also meant to be practical when you’ve got more than one light in the water (or multiple in the same area).
That said, it’s not a plug-in, mains-grade solution. It’s still a battery-powered setup, so runtime is ultimately part of your decision.
Key features that matter in real use
These lights come as a 2-pack, and the appeal is fairly clear: rechargeable battery, underwater sealing for immersion, plus 16 static colour modes and additional colour-changing effects.
A few details are worth focusing on: - Rechargeable battery via USB: the lights have a built-in lithium polymer battery and can be charged using a USB port. A USB data cable is included, which helps if you’re not already set up with the right lead. - Timer function: there’s a timer with options of 2 hours, 4 hours, or 6 hours, allowing the lights to switch on/off automatically at a set time. There’s also a memory function, which can save you from reconfiguring everything every time. - Wireless remote: the remote is stated to control up to 20 metres, and it’s intended to manage multiple underwater lighting units at once. In other words, you don’t necessarily need to walk over to each light. - LED design and modes: the lights use 13 LED beads. You get 16 static colour modes, plus 3 colour-changing modes (gradient, smooth, flashing) and 4 brightness levels.
A quick micro-scenario: imagine you’re getting the garden ready for an evening party. You set a timer so the lights switch on for a couple of hours, then use the remote to pick a colour and dim level without going near the water.
IP68 waterproofing and placement (where it can get tricky)
These underwater pool lights use a one-piece sealing design and are described as having passed an IP68 waterproof test, with the expectation that they can be 100% immersed in water.
For attachment/placement, the description moves away from the old suction-cup style and instead references a bonding method that can form a strong bond regardless of smooth or textured surfaces. That’s useful in principle because pools and tubs aren’t always perfectly smooth.
However, it’s still smart to approach placement with a little caution. If you’re expecting “stick once and forget forever” performance, you’ll want to think about your surface, how clean it is before sticking, and whether you’re dealing with areas that get heavy wear. The product description doesn’t spell out exact prep steps or long-term adhesion time.
What you’ll notice day to day
On paper, the runtime is one of the stronger differentiators versus typical battery-only floating lights. The kit is stated to take around 2.5 hours to fully charge, and it can last up to 24 hours on the brightest setting, or up to 100 hours on the dimmest setting.
Where that becomes practical is brightness choice. If you treat these as background atmosphere lighting, dimmer settings should stretch runtime a lot. If you’re using them like “proper lighting”, the brightest setting is likely to be shorter-lived, so you may want to rely more on the timer.
Also, with 16 static colours plus colour-changing modes, it can be surprisingly easy to end up using just a couple of go-to looks. If you like flicking between colours, the remote makes that less of a hassle.

Who it suits (and who should skip it)
It’s not a bad fit if you want flexible, atmosphere-style underwater lighting for occasions like parties, events, or regular evening use, and you like having a remote and timer rather than manual control.
It may not suit you if you need a light that runs for long periods at maximum brightness, or if you prefer a mains-powered setup where runtime isn’t tied to charging cycles. Also, if you’re very sensitive to installation hassle, do bear in mind that “bonding” methods tend to be a bit more about surface prep than suction-cup style placement.
Is it worth it?
Final verdict
Worth buying if you’re looking for a rechargeable, waterproof (IP68) set of two submersible LED lights with a remote, 16 colour options, and a timer. The stated charge time and long dimmed runtime make it a sensible choice for people who want reliable ambience without frequent battery shopping.
You may want to look elsewhere if you need something that you’ll run continuously at the brightest setting, or if you’re not comfortable with the idea of sticking/bonding the lights to your specific pool or tub surface. In those cases, this kit is more of a mood-lighting solution than a “set-and-forget” primary light.
