Method and apparatus are disclosed for vehicle headlamp de-condensation. An example exterior lamp of a vehicle includes a housing, a cover coupled to the housing to define a cavity, and a lamp assembly within the cavity. The lamp assembly includes an LED, a heat sink coupled to the LED that is configured to dissipate heat and define a chamber, desiccant located within the chamber to collect moisture from the cavity, and a vent fluidly coupled to the chamber to remove the moisture from the cavity.

A water decomposition device may include a hydrogen-generating electrode including a first external electrode and at least one first internal electrode formed integrally with the first external electrode, and an oxygen-generating electrode including a second external electrode and at least one second internal electrode formed integrally with the second external electrode. The first external electrode and the second external electrode are disposed to face each other, and the first internal electrode and the second internal electrode are disposed alternately in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction thereof. Therefore, the water decomposition device may secure both transparency and durability even when an opaque material is used therefor.

In order to provide a vehicle lamp capable of reliably preventing dust from entering a lamp chamber, this invention is equipped with a lamp housing (10) provided with a breathing hole (15), and a cap (2) provided with a breathing port (23). The breathing hole (15) is positioned above the breathing port (23). A breathing passage (3) is provided between the lamp housing (10) and the cap (2). A projecting part (17) is provided on the lamp housing (10). The tip of the projecting part (17) and the cap (2) form a throttle part (30) therebetween. As a result, this invention makes it possible to reliably prevent dust (4) from entering a lamp chamber (13).
