A drop-in LED replacement for Jandy WaterColors and HydroCool pool and spa lights. It threads directly into the standard 1.5 inch nicheless fitting and runs on 12VAC, so it installs exactly like the original Jandy light. No pool drain required.

Between our two brightness levels and three cable lengths, there is a match across the WaterColors nicheless JLU4C series and the HydroCool lineup. If you would like white only, we can custom make those for you. Order on this page and choose the white option.

  • Soft glow diffuser for even lighting with no hot spots
  • Perma-seal resin filled housing engineered against the water intrusion that ends most pool lights early
  • High-efficiency CREE LED chipset that runs cool for years of operation
  • Liquid heat-transfer cooling for sustained brightness
  • Rugged-jacket cable that pulls easily through tight conduit without binding or ripping
  • 14 RGB Jandy Matched color modes for vivid, programmable lighting
  • Compatible with Jandy Aqualink RS, upgraded TCX retrofit kits, and the Jandy WaterColors LED Light Controller. Not using automation? It works with a standard on/off switch as well.

30W High Brightness. Our 30W option delivers 50% higher light output than the 12W model, as measured in lab testing. The stainless steel housing acts as a heat sink for efficient thermal management, keeping LEDs cool under sustained operation for maximum longevity and consistent brightness. Choose this option if you have a single light and a large pool, or if just want the brightest, most vivid pool light on the market.

Covered by a 2-year warranty against water intrusion and LED failure. Free US shipping. Not sure about fitment? Text a photo of your light to (239) 350-3110 and we will confirm before you order. Are your lights in a bubbler tube? Verify the diameter of the lens as shown in the photos before ordering.

Available Late 2026

Quick Connect Wire

This feature will be launched in December 2026. Current production uses normal wiring. We have engineered our lights to have a long life cycle, which is why we offer a lifetime warranty on everything.

However, as with any electronic item, there is a small chance of light fail prematurely. Many other LED light suppliers have the light permanently attached to the housing, so if you need to replace it, you would need to run new wires.

Our lights have a quick disconnect at the light- you don't need to replace the entire wire if our light fails.

Superior Brightness

High Output CREE LED

We use the highest grade LED's manufactured by CREE. Others use generic LED's which result in shorter life, lower output, and less radiant colors.

Resin Filled

Our lights are resin filled to prevent cracks and leaks. Competitors keep a hollow body that causes cracking and leaks over time.


Do you have a replacement light for me?

Most likely- yes! Call our client advisors during business hours for a recommendation.

How do I know what light I need?

Use our Light Finder to find the correct match. You can also text a photo of your light for a suggestion.

Why are your lights 1/3 the cost of the brand name version?

Brand name lights get sold from the factory to the OEM, then to the distributor or dealer, and then to the installer. Each step adds 30-50% to the price. By the time you have it installed, the price can be $500-$800 each. We sell direct to you to eliminate those markups.

Are your lights designed better?

Our goal is to

How are your lights controlled?

Each light has different control options- refer to the product page and there is a compatible controller section to describe how you can activate the lights.

Where are you based at?

Our headquarters is in Florida, and we ship worldwide.

What is your warranty?

Our warranty is 2 years, with optional extended warranties at checkout.

Why do the brand name lights fail after only 1-2 years?

The brand name lights use high power LED's with inadequate cooling and housing protection. Ours are designed to last longer.

What does Resin Filled mean and why is it better?

Low cost lights use a hollow design because its cheaper. This results in air pockets that constantly expand and contract with temperature. This flexing creates micro cracks in the housing that allows water to enter, shorting out the circuit. Our lights use resin to ensure there is no flexing of the material.

How long is shipping?

Our lights are made to order for now. In late 2026 we should have the warehouse stocked up for immediate shipment, but until then you should plan on 7-15 business days for shipping.

How do I install the lights?

We recommend you consult with a qualified pool tech to install. Some customers DIY install with youtube videos.

How long are your cables?

We offer various cable lengths to suit your application. Choose the best cable length at checkout. If you aren't sure, give us a call.

Designed in Florida.

Our lights are meticulously designed in the sunniest, harshest conditions to ensure your new lights will last for years.

Durability First.

Through extreme testing we can be confident of our designs lasting with exposure to constant use and chemical exposure.
