I have the magnet version. I’ll take some pics for you. I can tell you my robot goes over it without knocking it off. It sticks to the wall pretty tightly.
Hi, hoping to Re Start this thread

Just finished my pool build and I purposely did not run electrical for lighting (possibly a huge mistake)

Anywho, I purchased one of these Ledec Sun lights. They truly work great and are very very bright

However, the adhesive they send….sucks. It is not sticking to my plaster walls at all. Falls off immediately. I don’t have tech data sheets for their adhesive but I deal with enough chemicals and coatings on a weekly basis and by the odor it smells like it’s a solvent free silicone product. Which obviously is not going to have the best adhesion as a hydrocarbon based urethane adhesive/epoxy.

I’m waiting for a response from their customer service but I’m not sure they’ll have much of a solution

Any suggestions for under water adhesive that actually will stick and work?

I can’t really do the magnetic option because it’s a plaster pool. Even if I were to adhesive a piece of stainless steel to the wall I’ll still be in need of adhesive that is strong enough under water.

Any advise is much appreciated. I’ve spent $250 on this light and overall very happy with the power and quality. I just need to figure out how I’ll mount it successfully

How permanent do you want the light mounted to the plaster?

Pool putty may permanently glue it to plaster. It may not remove cleanly of you want to remove the light.

Permanent enough to where it doesn’t fall off the wall lol. I tried to find heavy duty double sided suction cups but nothing out there from google searches

It sucks because I designed my pool specifically electrical free for plans to use this light. Light seems to perform great just a matter of getting fixated on the wall appropriately

I got it mounted on the wall and it looks great.

lol now that the pool is illuminated at night I’m seeing all the imperfections

Should I be asking the plaster crew to come back and polish that out? Or is that fairly normal for a small uneven patch in a hand troweled plaster pool? 2 small spots size of a quarter

Small imperfections like that are normal.

What did you use to fasten the light?
