Small Niche and LED light

[kelemvor]

Is there a way to convert my niche so I can use one of these bulbs?

If those are the lights I am thinking of they are meant to go into an incandescent light in place of the incandescent bulb. I think you'd have to buy and install an incandescent light. Then you could buy one of those bulbs and replace the incandescent bulb with the LED bulb. My understanding was that the lights that are native LED are brighter than "convertabulbs" for lack of a better description.

I'm curious about the failures you've had. Are the LED lights leaking and failing because the electronics inside got wet? Are they just failing for no apparent reason? If it's the latter, it could possibly be a case of "dirty power" or spikes or something like that. Do you go through a lot of light bulbs inside your home?

I don't go through light bulbs but who knows on the power here. Neither of them leaked. The first one just died. The last one has just been flaky. Sometimes only one color will work. I got the one I have now because Savi used to make an LED pool light that fit in a small niche. Unfortunately they discontinued them.

I hate the thought of going incandescent. What is the brightest light I can get that will fit in a spa niche? Seems they are all set for 100W.

I haven't heard of savi (not that THAT means anything) but their website says their products have a 5 year warranty? Are your lights older than that? If not, pursue a warranty replacement.
