Regrading the swimming pool lighting system,there are mainly halogen lamps and LED light.
At the beginning ,Halogen lamps were the most commonly used technology because its low cost for underwater lighting in swimming pools after incandescent lamps and before the widespread adoption of LED. Their working principle involves heating a tungsten filament to incandescence using an electric current, and filling the lamp with halogen gas to slow down the evaporation of the tungsten filament.
However, its energy consumption is extremely high. Because its power is typically 300W, 500W, or even 1000W, which is 5-10 times the energy consumption of an LED light of the same brightness, resulting in huge electricity costs.Furthermore, its lifespan is extremely short.The average lifespan is only 1,000 to 5,000 hours. For example,if the light is used for 4 hours a day, it will need to be replaced in about a year. Then the high replacement frequency leads to high maintenance costs And its limited functionality and relatively low safety make it difficult to meet market demands.
So that the underwater LED lights have become the absolute mainstream of the swimming pool light system.
Firstly ,it is in the high efficiency and energy saving. Its energy consumption is only 1/5 to 1/10 of that of halogen lamps, resulting in significant energy savings over long-term operation.Secondly, the high-quality LED lamps have a lifespan of 30,000 to 50,000 hours, far exceeding the 1,000-5,000 hours of halogen lamps, greatly reducing replacement and maintenance costs.What's more ,it is more safer at low voltage and colorful choice function.Working voltage mostly at 12V, generates little heat, has a high sealing rating (IP68), and provides good water and electricity isolation.And Its RGB (red, green, blue) or RGBW (red, green, blue, white) LEDs can mix millions of colors, and the controller can achieve dazzling effects such as dynamic color changing and scene modes.You even can control the LED lamps by the remote control.
For the above advantages ,Who can resist LED lights?So that the LED lamp has become more and more popular for the swimming pool light system.
