The enclosure i bought a year ago came with the led bars. One went out and I dont know where to go to get one thats just like it to replace and snap in just like this one did. Does anyone know? I would greatly appreciate it!!

Hi!
I, unfortunately, don't have a solid advice in this case.
1. I would contact the maker of the enclosure about compatible replacements. Barrina is a rather popular brand and there are chances it's exactly the same as the preinstalled bar. In the worst case, the enclosure maker will not do a warranty replacement and will try to charge more than Amazon... But still worth a shot.

2. You can carefully measure dimensions of the old lamps and check if they match with Barrina LED bar. The next thing is to check that lamps are connected with just a plain power cord and there is no small box wired in. Usually LED lights come with built-in electronic component called "LED driver" but in custom builds sometimes external driver is used. In that latter case Barrina lights won't fit.

Ok! Thank you! I did try to contact the maker but I got no response. Thank you for all of that info! I also wanted to make sure this was the same thing. Thank you so much+

Is this correct wattage light I should be using? I left my old one on for 10-11 hrs a day. Is that okay for this particular bulb as well? Hes a 1 year old redfoot

Sorry for not replying earlier. It's okay to have ambient LEDs on for 10-11 hours a day (12-13 hours in summer and 10-12 in winter, if to be pedantic). Wattage seems fine too for a 1ft lamp.
