I have just bought a set of the 200BARLPM2 and they look really well made - just got to get them fitted when the snow goes !! these will replace my older ( also Australian) submersibles
Also got the wiring 'loom' to run through the a frame to the junction box on the winch post.
Richard at AES was really helpful in understanding what I needed ( the UK catalogue isn't as clear as the Aussie website) - great service and good value I think.

Real-world data:

Fitted a set 6 years ago, mounted permanently on boat trailer, they have been fully submerged about once a week for the past 6 years in seawater, received various bashes and bumps from rocks and careless drivers.

Spotted the first signs of failure today - a couple of the LEDs in the brake light and one of the number plate light LEDs have gone dim.

I'd call that pretty robust.

I clean and grease the supplied waterproof connectors every 6 months or so (which also get submerged). Otherwise they have been maintenance free. The supplied connectors are spliced onto longer wiring runs using glue lined heatshrink tubing which has also survived the test of time underwater (soldered joints, cable sleeve lightly scuffed with sandpaper, degreased and then heat-shrinked).

10/10 would recommend.
