I'm looking for information regarding how much light output (lumens, candlepower/candela, foot-Lambert, whatever) for the (Pentair) SAM Spectrum Amerilite (color changing) and the Pentair IntelliBrite 5G (color changing) pool lights.
For comparison, it would be helpful to know what the light output is for both types (for "white" light).
I want to know if they are close to the same "output".
I currently have two SAM lights in my pool (both are not working now). I can buy a repair kit for the SAM or for a little more money, get an IntelliBrite.
All of the manuals/brochures I have found for these lights just talk about power (watts) consumption. No mention of light output.
Some reviewers on the IntelliBrite say they are not as bright as expected/desired. I would not want to buy these these and then find out they are significantly dimmer than my current lights.
It's odd that they don't tell you this. All of my landscape lighting sources always provide the light output and light spread charts for the various fixtures they sell.
