The Sylvan pool light I just spent an inordinate amount of time replacing the two halogen bulbs suddenly and unexpectedly fell out of its niche this morning. The length of supplied electric cable is just long enough for it to rest comfortably on the deepend pool floor without dangling by the wire. At first I thought the Hayward pool vac got on it and pulled it loose as the pool vac was tangled in the wiring but that wasn't it.
I got in the water today and did my Lloyd Bridges routine with mask and flippers of grabbing the light and reinserting it in the niche. This task took me a considerable amount of time needless to say. Anyway I dried off and came back outside to admire my handiwork and to my dismay saw the Sylvan pool light once again out of it's niche and resting on the bottom again...
The light just presses gently into the niche, there's a "keeper" on the bottom of it that fits a slot and you just press the top of the light into the niche and it holds it in place. If there was a latch or holder mechanism of any kind it is not there anymore, corroded off long ago, missing or never existed. Is there a way to jam or wedge something waterproof when I press the light in or some type of adhesive material that will stick underwater and be just strong enough to hold the light in place but not so strong that removing the light in the future will be impossible?
