AGP Lights

[phonedave]

Were you able to retrofit your housing with an LED? I had that thread bookmarked and realized that you had posted there. When my light dies I will be trying the LED thing.

I never tried. I was going to, after the last bulb died on me, then I had the housing itself develop a hairline crack in it (not enough to leak, but enough for me to see).

The final straw was when I decided to go with a SWG. I went with an RJ unit that mounts just below the return. The Aqualuminator has a angled neck on it, and an adapter for hard pipe that was not going to work nicely with my SWG set up, so I decided it was time and took it out.

It really is pitiful, that no one manufacturer can make a decent AGP light. Everytime, and I mean everytime, you think you have found a light that is decent and fits your needs, you just need to research people's feedback and find that some like it, others hate it. Some lights are great but the bulbs burn out to easily. Most I guess are bought seasonally because they don't make things like they use to. Maybe I would never know you have to pay 4 and 5 hundred dollars to get a good light. I am not an electrical engineer, but I can't for the life of me, figure out what so hard about putting a light with a water proof lens, that lasts more than what I have been seeing they last on these for sites. Entrepreneurs this is definitely an area where you could make a fortune just by producing just a half way decent light. Nightlighter seems to be the best thing going, but they are on the high side of price, but I guess not high enough, because they don,t have real good feedback, but when buying lights, your only choice is to buy the least worst ones you can find, and buy that one almost every year.

I suppose our entire economy is becoming based on disposable merchandise. I think I'm going to try the Nightlighter also.

The LED light I posted earlier is really impressive. I really have nothing bad to day about it. It lights my pool up great. I cannot speak to longevity, but so far so good.

Hey Brunnesa,

I saw the news article that is linked in your earlier comment, but I couldn't actually find the site to purchase it. Who did you buy it from?

I usually never give solar power an even break on anything. If you can't plug it in, it's not for me.
