Hey folks,
So, I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on the Nitelighter pool light (nl55) for my in-ground pool, and I come to find out, it's sold out nation-wide for the rest of the season. The only retailers that seem to have it are charging about $50 more than I could get it normally, so I can't justify it.
So...with that in mind, I was thinking about grabbing an Above Ground Nitelighter and using that instead. I called smart pool and they said it's exactly the same as the in-ground, it just has a different mounting bracket that, instead of lying flat, is meant to go over the side of the pool. It's also half the price for some reason.
I've never seen one in person though. For those of you that have it, could you see being able to modify the bracket to get it to lie flat and work for an in-ground? Or is this some seriously solid metal?
Thanks
