The house we bought at the first of the year was 2 yrs old and the pool was a month or two less than that. All JANDY/Zodiac stuff controlled by iAqualink. One light in the spa and one light in the pool. The iAqualink gave us the choice of colors when we turn those on and the lights are "labeled" in the aqualink menu as "JL". About a month or so ago, the pool light started slowly strobing shortly after you would turn it on. Also, some of the colors don't show up as the color chosen. The light just stays white. I know I have some more troubleshooting to do before I plop down $600-800 for another light engine. But I got to thinking:
There are a number of places that now sell 12v "waterproof" 16ft. LED light strips for $20 or so. Has anyone tried using those around the perimeter of their pools, under the coping? I know that they probably would not last submerged. My coping, stone, overhangs about 3/4"-1" and siliconing these strips there should be a whole lot cheaper and replacing the light engine.
Thoughts, comments, suggestions?
