Pentair EC602128 Amerilite 10 Inch 120 Volt 500 Watt Underwater Swimming Pool Spa Light with 50 Foot Cord and Heat Sensing Cutoff

Recently purchased a house with a pool and the light never worked. I researched the old light and this light was the exact replacement I needed. It was easy to replace and works great. It's bright! If you're planning on replacing it yourself, be sure to watch some DIY videos on YouTube. Don't pay someone $500 to replace it. You can do it yourself!

I had watched videos on youtube on installation of pool lights, and was able to successfully install myself. Luckily, where the wires come out on the other end was only a few feet away from the pool, making it easier. I replaced the bulb with an LED one also from Amazon (LINK BELOW) , since I wanted a longer-life, lower-energy-consumption bulb that I wouldn't have to replace for quite a while. They both work great together. Got the whole thing installed, seems to be water tight and I was pleased I didn't spend $900+ for a service to install an LED light for me. It took about an hour or so, and the only help I needed was from my husband to feed wires through. It would have been tough to do without another person for that part.

Exact replacement… double boxed securely packed… easy do it yourself to change, pool store quoted 250$ in labor…hardest part was removing and pulling new wire through the conduit..I coated new cable with Vaseline to make it easier to pull… this one has heavy duty OEM wire… looked at some alternatives that were cheaper but cheaper made and smaller gauge wire…When working with electric around the pool..don’t FAFO… stick with the genuine quality…

We bought this to replace an old Anthony pool light. This item worked perfectly .

Received order as described. Professionally installed.

Not my first one, I needed a new one because I moved the junction box and needed a light with a longer cord. My original light was 2007 and was fine. I had replaced the incandescent bulb with an LED and it was a big improvement. The bulb it comes with is a warmer/yellow color and I like the look of a cooler whiter color in the pool. I have not swapped the bulb in the new light yet but will likely to look better and to save a little money as the LED doesn't use as much electricity either. Quality does not look like it has changed in the paste 15 years which is nice.

I bought this light to replace one that was original to the pool, which was built in the 1980s. I worried about being able to pull the old wire through the underground conduit, but all went smoothly. If you can replace an electrical outlet or switch, you can replace a pool light. Don't remove the old wire and run fish tape through the conduit to grab the new wire at the light cavity. And don't run a pull line, as some sources recommend, through the conduit by splicing one to the old wire at the switch box and pulling from the light-cavity side. Use the original wire as your pull line and save a step. Cut the old wire at the light. Then securely splice that cut end to the new wire's free end (the end opposite of the light). Wrap the splice with electrical tape. Ensure that the wrapped diameter of the splice is no fatter than the wire. Now, go to the opposite end of the old wire at the switch box or connector box. Clamp vice grips on the end of the old wire and pull your old wire out trailed by the new. Once you connect everything and night comes, you'll appreciate how well the light illuminates with a soft glow.

Light is dimmer than a candle. Having to call electrician to see what is wrong, if it is bulb or electrical....but watched crew hook up exactly like old light was attached to electrical lines.
