    12v 35w? 120v 20w?? Help!

    Thanks for the quick reply. I just had an electrician out to bond and ground all of my equipment (yes, I know they are 2 different things!) My pool service guy said he's happy to change out the bulb for me. There is no transformer. But yes - there is a GFCI and it's working fine.

    12v 35w? 120v 20w?? Help!

    I'm completely lost as to how to find a compatible replacement bulb for my pool light. Currently have a Pentair Amerlite white light (I don't know the wattage/voltage of the bulb that is currently installed) and I want to replace it with a multi-color LED bulb. Problem is, I don't understand...

    Do I NEED a robotic cleaner, or do I WANT one?

    Have you looked into the SolarBreeze NX? It's a solar powered pool surface skimmer. Works 23 hours a day using stored energy in the battery that's charged by the sun! I have one (actually I have two - one still in the box) and it works great!

    Solar Breeze NX Kickstarter/Pre-Order

    I also don't use a robot/pool cleaner so I don't have that problem. I'm curious what you mean by going against the current? Your signature line says you have floor jets? I guess that's what makes the water move, but I don't have that. Sometimes it sits in one place because either it's in resting...

    Given a FREE Pentair IntelliFlo VS Pump but it won't work with my AqualinkRS?

    I'm a newbie pool owner and was just told that my local gas company is going to give me - and install FOR FREE - a Pentair Intelliflo 3HP Variable Speed pump (Model #011018). Problem is, I have a Jandy PDA AqualinkRS remote system (am I even referring to this correctly?) :confused: that...

    Solar Breeze NX Kickstarter/Pre-Order

    I was an early backer on last year's Kickstarter and from what the latest update says, the first container of SolarBreeze NX robots are on their way to the US from China (ugh, yeah I know). Although I didn't have the first gen model, the reviews were awesome (consistent with what HopelessLee...
