Hi folks - I have two standard size Pentair Intellibrite 5G color LEDs installed in Feb 2016 during our new build, also a smaller one in the spa. They run for several hours each night on automation. Never had a problem until just a few weeks ago when the light in the deep end went out. It still has a faint green glow when on, but is otherwise non-functional. I called a reputable pool service company (no longer use our PB for various reasons) and was informed it's quite common for these to go out around the 3-4 year mark. I would think LEDs only running a few hours per day would last for many years.
Is it common for these to go out in such a relatively short period of time? Is there anything to check such as loose wiring or anything on the controller side? I find it odd there is a faint glow in the bulb vs being completely out, but perhaps that's how these things work?
