I am replacing an old light in my pool during a replaster with a Pentair Intellibrite 5G color LED light, and I am trying to decide whether to add one additional one or several smaller Microbrite lights To the other side of the pool.
1. When either the Intellibrite or the Microbrite lights go bad, do I need to drain the pool to replace them? Can bulbs be swapped out or do the entire fixtures and wiring need to be replaced? Which is easier to work with in regard to replacing in the future?
2. How likely is it that the contractor will be able to find rebar inside the pool shell to bond the Intellibrite without having to tear open too much shell? Is rebar typically easily found or is it a bad idea to go this direction if I do not want to have to possibly open up much?
3. I would ideally like to set the lights so I can turn on the Intellibrite and Microbrites on or off using my phone, or set them all to a timer so they go on and off and selected times and I could also over ride them manually with my phone. Does the Microbrite or Intellibrite work the same way for what I want to do or is there a reason to go for one vs. the other?
Thanks in advance!
