Provided is an underwater lighting device and underwater electronic device which are comparatively inexpensive yet durable enough for long-term use. An underwater lighting unit 10, which has an internally provided light source 11 and a gas-tight case 12 with a window 13 for allowing the passage of light from the light source 11, is connected to a land-based unit 30 by a gas-sending tube 40. Air is sent from the land-based unit 30 to the underwater lighting unit 10 to maintain the pressure inside the underwater lighting unit 10 at a value slightly higher than the water pressure at the location. A power line for supplying power to the underwater lighting unit 10 and a signal line for controlling the emission of their light are installed in the gas-sending tube 40. Even if the gas-tight state of one underwater lighting unit 10 is broken, water cannot enter the underwater lighting unit 10. Furthermore, the thereby generated bubbles help users locate the underwater lighting unit 10 in which the gas-tight state has been broken. If a plurality of underwater lighting units 10 are provided, they should preferably be connected in the form of a loop or matrix to the land-based unit 30. |
