Advice on Replacment Pool Light

[waste]

Hayward color logic lights are prone to failure in an electrical storm, I think the chip in them is highly sensitive to power surges.

Can't say anything about the others.

I don't know much about IG lights, especially the full voltage ones where the wires actually are exposed to water--they scare the tar out of me.

However, there are AG lights that work by installing a clear lens in the pool wall, the way you'd install a return. Then a 12v halogen goes into the lens from the outside of the pool, sealed off from the water. Works very well, easy to change bulbs.
