pool light

Hello guys, (For starters, this question is not about the pool I have listed in my profile.. just fyi lol) I was wondering if anyone knew of any alternatives (preferably LED) to the AquaLumin III no-niche type pool light (made by Pentair if I’m not mistaking)? For anyone not familiar with this...

Hi. I have inherited a home with an in-ground concrete pool built in the mid-1960s. The pool light hasn’t been turned on in years. When I tried it, it burnt for under a minute and fizzled out. The electrician seems to think the electrical is fine. My mom was under the impression that the...

My Hawyard Colorlogic have failed multiple times- only once under warranty- flicker of death, and we are finally replacing with Jandy. The transformer that is already in place is a Hayward. Can I use that or is there something unusual about it and I need a Jandy or other brand?

I just bought a Pentair EC602128 Amerilite 10 Inch 120 Volt 500 Watt pool light. I wired it to my switch and the power goes all the way to the new housing but the light doesn't turn on. I tested the bulb and it works fine. Besides the housing being bad, is there anything I might be missing? I...

I am looking at replacing a broken spa light. I first started looking at the Pentair Intellibrite, but the idea of having to replace the entire fixture when it stops working in the future doesn’t sound good to me. Does anyone have any experience with the color LED bulbs by PoolTone? I think...

I'm not sure if this is a question or just a vent session, but why on earth do pool lights have to be so absurdly limited in the colors I can choose? My pool is only a year old. I specifically asked the sales guy about the lights during the contract negotiations: "Will we be able to make the...

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone has installed Mod Lites and if so, do mine look like they’re in far enough? Not sure if the trim should be flush with wall. The connection is gine, but just checking. Thanks!

Hello - I am in the final stages of hiring a pool builder, I want to get some opinions on lighting. Everything is Pentair. Seems like the consensus on the forum is Microbrite is the latest and greatest product. Pool layout below. 5x14 baja shelf on right. Spa in upper left. Spa is not raised...

Hi! New pool owner here! We are in the middle of our fiberglass pool installation (20+ weeks since the start of excavation). It’s been an awful experience with our pool builder..... We have so many issues/questions.... But here is an easy one! Is this how the Jandy LED lights are suppose to look...

I have a 120V multicolor LED in both of my pool lights. Replacements are $899 each. It’s not worth that much to have pool lights. Currently the lights are ColorLogic 4.0 sp0527LED100. Are there other light bulb assemblies that will fit this Pentair receptacle?

I'm having a difficulty in removing my pool light fixture. I unscrewed the single screw that holds the fixture (see attached image), but the fixture does not budge. I tried lightly prying it with a screwdriver, but no success. What am I missing? Is there a trick to removing these? All of...

We have 3 Pool Lights and use a Jandy Aqua Link remote. I notice when we use the Control box, all of the lights can be different colors, though it doesn't let you pick which colors. When you use the AquaLink remote Every Light will be the same color. Is it possible to use the Remote to set each...

Hello Everyone, I have been reading through the threads and have found a lot of this information very informative. I am trying to achieve the same result that many members are as well which is running a Neutral Wire into my pool light switch so that I can wire up a Smart Light Switch. I...

So I had a contractor leave on me half way through a job. I’m trying to source out this light he installed. The light and cord are in place but will need the transformer which was never put in place.Since the transformers are specific to the light I have to source out what kind of light was...

On my Pentair IntelliBrite 5G pool light: When using a controller and changing between fixed individual colors (i.e. going from Blue to Red) the light will go off between color changes for between 12-15 seconds. When using a controller and changing between light “show” modes (i.e. going from...

I realize that this is a recurring story, but I haven't been able to resolve the issue. One of my SAm lights flooded in my pool (2 in pool, 1 in spa) causing all 3 lights to stop working. A typical problem for a 15 year old pool, according to other accounts on this forum. After letting the light...

Hi All, I have a 30-year-old pool with American Products/Pentair light fixtures (incandescent). Pool light is still working great after all of these years, but recently our spa light has started to shut off after being on for no longer than 5 mins. I tried to change the bulb (along with the...

Hello, I have an old pool light ( FIberstars Jazzlight/FX ). It works fine and changes colors but since it's been some years it's not as bright anymore and light does not cover sides of my pool. I found a new Fiberstars FX light online but wondering if it will be actually brighter than my old...

Hello, I just replaced my old Giammanco pool light transformer with the px300. The wires coming out of the pool side pipe are labeled 12,13,14,0 (all black), and a single white wire. From the old schematic, attached, looks like I connect the two black leads from the px300 to 12 (the voltage of...

Hi - please help. I'm located in PA and keep my in-groud pool open from May - Sept. Every year when I open it, the pool light is burned out. Last year I decided to replace it with an LED bulb thinking that the incandescent was freezing. However, I opened the pool today and the LED is not...

Recently bought a house with an inground pool. I estimate it was built in the 80s. I'm looking to replace the 12v bulb and gasket but can't figure out what make or model it is. I've tried local pool stores and they weren't sure either. The labels on the back of the light are long gone and I'm...
