General introduction for PAR56 led swimming pool light/LED Spa light/LED Underwater Light:
If you are considering replacing your traditional halogen lights for your swimming pool, or retrofitting the pool light, then the PAR56 LED pool light will be a good solution for it.
LED stands for light emitting diode. LED Par56 pool bulbs use less than a quarter of the energy of a standard incandescent bulb and can last up to 40,000 hours – that’s 40 times the life of a standard bulb. Deep rich colors are also possible with LED pool lights. It can be in single color, or multi color, say we also call it RGB LED pool light, multicolor pool light. So pool owners can take advantage of colored lights that bring programmable light shows to create different ambiences to fit your mood and special occasion. With the development of the technology, we can have wireless controlled pool light, DMX512 led pool light, RF controlled pool light, WIFI controlled pool light ( Iphone controlled pool light/ Ipad controlled pool light)
Lamps are made of fine glass, PC or aluminum, now the hottest selling items are in aluminum base, some of customer may need the pc spa light or pool light, as it is with slightly lower cost.
Then we have PC par56 pool light and aluminum par56 pool light.
