AI Coral Grow light died. Looks like power entry capacitor leaded.

Has anyone had issue with their AI Coral Grow Light? This one died this week. I am contacting AI but while I am waiting I opened it up and saw the power entry wires were all corroded and the power entry capacitor looked like it had leaked. I have been a field service engineer for 40 years so repairing electronics is not a big deal for me but these kinds of electronics are not made to be repaired. The PCB board is multi layers so the Capacitor leads do not go all the way through so not a good chance to repair it. Thanks for your advice.

I had to send in my first coral grow because the LED pucks caused a gradient lighting effect, curious what your other clusters look like? My first one had that yellow looking white LED always on the right where the updated one had them alternate. AI was really good about the warranty swap though.

It always looked great. I did not have any of the problem people said about the light being uneven.
