Hummm becareful, mr11 LEDs are not 5cm diameter. They are smaller. You should go for a mr16/GU5.3 model with 24 LEDs at least. Or maybe a 3x3w coloured Cree.
I'm afraid of low power in water with only 10 leds SMD 5050 ...
Hope it's not too late ?
I would suggest this model :
Link 30x5050 SMD
It seems promising with high Lumen ! Exist in Red, blue, Green, white

as a matter of fact! I got the bulbs from www.dx.com and started to do the project but didnt buy enough clear epoxy! I will have more tonight to finish one of them!
Which switch did you wire yours into?

Great news ! with 30x 5050 red leds you will have more lumen than $$$ commercial leds.
Mine are wired on the "court" switch.
It's now more than 1 month submerged Under water. No problem at all, every led is running just fine, with nice and powerful blue colour.
How many clear époxy did you order ? I did mine with 1L and can do so many leds with it.
Did you find the plastic sheet, or will you use different holder ?
Post pics of your system !

I got 32 oz of epoxy from amazon and it came yesterday. going to make them tonight I think. I bought the caps from the link you posted. Could not find any from another supplier. I will post some pics when they are done.
How close to the top did you space them?
They are bright!!!!

I went home at lunch and started to make the 2nd one and after I had poured the resin, realized the other bulb was DOA... I am goign to order 3 more. I had to buy 5 caps anyway and I have enough resine to do them all!

I just ordered 4. Can't wait to see how they turn out. You have pics of them in progress?
What means DOA ?
As I remove the wake plate (it generates splash at wakeboard speed and reduce the wake size), my led are exactly where the upper screws of the plate were. Somewhere in the middle between the bottom of the boat and the swim platform.
I really appreciate that you guys like my concept and you replicate it
Be careful to use inclusion epoxy resin (to keep insects for example)
If you use common resin it will not be crystal clear
