    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    Nice! Glad it’s working out. That wire pull sounds very frustrating. Mine pulled through fairly easily. I wasn’t sure about where that black gasket was supposed to go either. Some more detailed instructions would have been helpful.

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    No, it was loose in the socket. Maybe it will fit tight in your style niche since it may be able to push in further. I didn’t realize they made different style niches. Your pool is fiberglass right?

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    Yeah I can send it over to them. Now fingers crossed that it lasts longer than the Globrite. Sounds like it should.

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    So here's how I got it to work. Spoiler alert...it wasn't easy. I hope the pics help b/c it's hard to explain. I made a 1/2" thick ring out of StarBoard material to take up the gap between the large face Pooltone (Florida Sunseeker) light and the wall of the pool. You can see the gap in the...

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    I spoke with Florida Sunseeker and was advised that their 1 1/2 light puts out about 1/3 the power of their 6” light. Makes sense but it’s kind of a bummer. It may have to be back to using the prone to fail Pentair lights.

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    Thanks! I’m confused as to why they wouldn’t have suggested this light when I asked which one I needed (or when I called today about my installation issue). Do you have any personal experience with this setup? Does it just press into the existing niche and fit nicely? Do you know how bright this...

    Florida Sunseeker to replace Pentair Globrite in fiberglass pool

    Like many others, I'm sick of replacing expensive Pentain Globrite lights as they crack and fail. I recently purchased a Florida Sunseeker replacement but can not get it to mount correctly in my fiberglass pool. Here's what I purchased. It states that it fits into fiberglass pools with...
