As my efforts to replace my pool light have utterly failed, my next trick is to make these battery LED’s work
The light itself is reasonably bright (for what it is) and cheap enough that if it lasts a season its worth it.
How to mount it?
I had high hopes I could zip tie the mounting plates to these mystery plastic inserts at the midpoint of the pool which I think are probably there to hold some sort of deep end dividing rope.
But there’s no ‘ridge’ of any sort on the interior of the piece which will hold onto the zip tie. No good.
I was thinking about putting a small stainless screw into the face of the plastic. I don’t need much of an anchor point so it can be a tiny one. Can I expect a stainless screw from the hardware store to stand up to pool water long term?
I could also possibly attach to my non functional light fixture but the position isn’t ideal as its one point in the deep end. Getting a couple lights in the middle of the pool would be much better.
Anyone got any other ideas?
