Upon removal and dissection it was revealed the power supply shorted out. Looks like it over heater but in the end it&#8217;s garbage and not worth the investment for such a poor quality design especially when a replacement can be bought for 100 bucks<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10182\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10182\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10181\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10181\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10183\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10183\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10184\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10184\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10185\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/5-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10185\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10186\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/6.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10186\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10188\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/7.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10188\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10187\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/8.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10187\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/fixitus.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/9.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10189\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NOTES:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The light has to have water to cool it so make sure when you silicone the new light you don&#8217;t seal it<br>The connector is supposed to be water tight to 3meters, I filled it with silicone also and then encased it<br>The old hayward light shell was a deep one but this install is pretty slim<br>The new light is the exact size of the removed electronics<br>This is a Blue Light<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To all my Florida pool owner DIYers this is a Mod that replaces the Hayward 999 dollar LED POS light with a Amazon 99 dollar unit.
