Awesome progress. How many watts is that pal light? 35 w?
I’m looking to retrofit my old light and am trying to get a sense of the led wattage. Your video helps!

I have 3 of the PAL lights along the long side of my pool. The lights look awesome. However all I can say is good luck with the WiFi I've never gotten mine to work so I stick with the remote. It might be cheap looking but it does work. The app basically just simulates the remote.
Starting to like the cute little remote and to be honest, I doubt we will be changing the color much.
Looking good Chris u got alot done nice job. The lights look great perfect layout. I rly wish i went fiberglass and could have afforded it im in a mud pit here in NJ w my build i feel ur pain buddy but u got backfill now u r lucky lol
Chris I am thinking most remotes will look "little" in your hands! LOL

Thanks buddy.
So I have about 70' of retaining wall. I left 16' of wall to the end to allow for machine access. Problem is, we had that storm and got over a foot of snow/freezing rain. it is now melted but that 16' of trench was full of water which I pumped out. Then had to dig 1' of mud out until I hit hard ground. Then I backfilled with granular a. Problem is, the granular A is now like mush. as I compact it, water comes up.
I may have to get a machine back in here and dig it deeper and wider. May even have to pour concrete as a base so I dont have to wait a month for it to dry out. That stage of the process is holding me back.
That is some neat stuff! Guess you don't melt in the rain but...........why no work on $$ job in the rain?

I've been driving a big sweeping machine for a town nearby. picking up all the sand from the winter. A job that is not very efficient with a lot of rain.
Busy beaver...
Since my hobby is making you work & worry.
(Speaking of work, you are about 40 hours late!!!)
Why didnt you run pipes outside of deck??
I’d hate to see you have to hammer deck out & chase a leak..

hahahaha. pipes are all burried and extea just laying on top of backfill. What you see there, is the extra that will be run to the equipment shed then cut to length. How do I ban you from my thread. Too much work already.

Also, the deck is 10' wide on the side which has all the plumbing. Some of the pipe has to be under the deck. lol. Leaks are for the guy that buys this house in 30 years. He can worry about them.

Attaboy!!!!
Had pretty high TA here. Online calculator for adding Muriatic acid was pretty bang on. Now my ph is low.

Crane is coming tomorrow to finish retaining wall. I will also form equipment shed slab and finish moving gravel around this weekend.

Ph was below the lowest on my Taylor test which I think is 6.8. Not sure if this will take a day, or a week. I will check tomorrow and see if there was noticeable change.
CHRIS! That IS a monster pump!!!!

Go big or go home.

So I have been playing with my water chemistry.
TA started off at 200ppm and I got it down to 100 with muriatic. ph is now at 7.2 thanks to my big bubbler. lol
Calcium Hardness is only 100ppm.
Salt is 3800ppm.. Oops, added too much. From everything I've read, it is not worth pumping some water out and adding fresh for the sake of 500ppm. Please correct me if I am wrong.
