Hi,
I'm changing the liner in my above ground pool. I figure with the water
out, now would be a good time to install a light. Any recommendations from
anybody with a pool light or anyone who has put one in? The Hayward elite
is the only one I can find right now.
Thanks,
Jeff

I have a Pentair Dark Buster in mine. Search around, prices vary greatly.

Do follow _all_ instructions. About the third year when I was opening my
pool, I was filling at night. Ole wise one that knows everything, turned on
the light to help see b/4 the light was submerged. As soon as the ice cold
water reached the light, POP. Needless to say, I went that year without the
light.

just a thought here. i have a light in my pool and rarely use it as it
attracts bugs. LOTS OF BUGS in a short time. also you will see every
foot print and all dents and irregularities in the bottom of the pool.
we thought our pool looked very good till we lit it up the first time.

I got a Darkbuster for mine:

It's plenty bright for my 24x48 above ground. The only downside is
that I've had to replace the bulb twice in eight years at $45 a pop.
The optional sprinkler attachment is nice (the above link includes
this for 'free').
