Under Deck Lighting

So this is what happens when a new home owner wants under deck lighting and they listen to the home builder.
The builder installed indoor pot lights under the deck and used the blue bags meant for attic/ceiling installations. The blue bags are brittle from exterior elements and the lights are rusting.

So now I’m busy replacing these pot lights. More pictures to follow…

Jim,
What was solution that you devised for this scenario. We bought a fixer upper in Tillamook, OR on the Oregon coast, where someone put an interior ceiling light under the deck. This is also exposed to the elements and open to the bottom of the deck.
Thank you for your insight,

We just used waterproof outlets.
