OK. I'll check them out. Thank you!

Yes I do have Aqualink.

I know what I need as far as the light, but I was wondering which brands y'all felt was the best to go with (Jandy, Pentair, J&J, etc.).

I'm not sure what nicheless means. Sorry! This is the light I have right now.

I have to replace two LED lights in my pool that are shot. I was wondering which brand y'all recommended. The Jandy ones I had lasted 4-6 years. I'm thinking about going that route, but someone recommended J&J Electronics as a good brand that's quite a bit cheaper. I'd rather pay more for...

I know that's how you do it w/o halogen bulbs, but is it the same with the Jandy LEDs? I assume I don't have to drain the pool either?

Woah. That ended up being HUGE. Sorry about that. That is the light. I have two that are that size.

I'll snap some pics in a bit. They are the bigger lights though for sure. I have a smaller one in the hot tub. The junction box is almost certainly wet due to it not being sealed from the elements (heavy rain getting in, condensation pooling, etc.). Once I get this fixed, I'm either going to...

Hey y'all. I've got two Jandy LED lights in my main pool (and one in my attached hot tub for three total). This past weekend I noticed that none of it was working. Figured out that my main pool ones were tripping the GFCI. All three lights are on the same GFCI, and as long as I don't turn on my...

The food grade stuff isn't dangerous. You can eat it. It's made a different way. The non-food-grade stuff is treated at super high temps which creates a different property or something. I'm definitely not an expert, but that's what I've read. It has the do with the fact the pool stuff has...

Can you use food grade DE in your DE filter or is the makeup/way it's made so different that it would mess things up? I use DE around the house (control bugs, etc.), and it would be nice to be able to use the food grade stuff in the pool so I don't have to have the "dangerous" version laying around.

Well... I asked too soon. I figured it out. I found a junction box that I never really noticed before, and the two disconnect wires were in that box. I was actually looking at the wrong two wires in the ebox. For the record, the light is, in fact, dead. Bummer.
