LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are solid-state lighting that use chips from semiconductors instead of a filament, gas or vapor to produce illumination. Unlike conventional lighting technologies, LEDs do not rely on “bulb technology”, which means they last much longer and use far less energy than any light bulb. Color-changing pool and spa lights that feature LED technology is the wave of the future in energy efficiency, lifetime value, quality of light, and controllability. With IntelliBrite, combinations of individual colored LEDs are mixed and matched to achieve a vibrant spectrum of colors. These combinations are power sequenced to illuminate and cycle through colors at varying speeds, and in different sequences of color. Combined with a custom reflector and unique lens design, the IntelliBrite LEDs offers super efficiency while being the brightest underwater LED light available.
An Eco Select™ Choice: LED (Light Emitting Diode) automated color-changing pool and spa lights are the most energy-efficient pool and spa lighting option available. Plus, they can last 30,000 hours or more, minimizing replacement cost and disposal.
LED technology is the brightest and most responsive lighting system ever, so your pool comes alive. LEDs are extremely efficient and can save up to 79% on energy costs when compared to traditional pool lighting. The streamlined, sealed units are watertight and easy to install. There are no bulbs to change, no color wheels, and no moving parts for noiseless and service-free operation.
LED products are low-voltage lighting. This makes ColorGlo LEDs up to 90% more energy efficient than other lighting, such as incandescent and halogen. Lower power consumption lowers operating costs. Using LED lighting in place of incandescent or halogen lighting will reduce energy costs.
Because LED lighting consumes less energy, it generates very little heat. In comparison, an incandescent light dumps approximately 90% of the energy it consumes as heat, making the bulbs hot. Heat drastically reduces a light’s lifespan. Because LED lighting generates very little heat, its lifespan far exceeds that of conventional lighting. And LED lighting is always cool to the touch.
LED lighting has the longest lifespan of any light on the market. The life of a single LED light can last up to 100,000 hours. This is significantly longer than the 1500 hour maximum life of a standard light bulb. LED's amazingly long life considerably reduces consumer inconvenience and maintenance costs because it rarely needs replacing.
LEDs operate without glass bulbs, delicate filaments, or complex tubing. This makes LED lighting far more shock and vibration resistant than incandescent or halogen lights. With LED Pool and Spa lighting, it’s easier and less expensive to build displays underwater and in outdoor environments where there is vibration, dust, or wind.
LED lighting does not contain mercury. Also, LEDs do not produce EMI emissions. This makes LED lighting an Earth-friendly, or “green” lighting solution.
