ohhh boy...I goofed. Need advice

I managed to get a drop of H2O in the endcap of my tek-light today.
There was a short fuzz and then no light. The light now comes on the shuts off in a rhythemic pattern.

Anybody been here before?

No, but I would let it completely dry before trying anything. I would also not run the lights unless you are home for a few hours/days. Better safe than sorry.

I Just got off of the phone with sunlight supply. The guy there suggested I start with a new end cap and see if that makes a difference.

He sent me two end caps at no charge. SUNLIGHT SUPPLY rocks!

Was that pure water or salt water you got on it. I know you said H2O - if it is just a drop of pure water it should dry out and be fine. If it was salt water that is another story.
