For a color-changing LED light, how do I switch between the different settings with just a standard light switch?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/20/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

The LED lights are designed to move to the next programmed setting each time you turn the switch on and off.  This will toggle through the different color settings and shows.

My pool has a dark blue surface. Can I use the Intellibrite color LED?
 Reply

A  Answered on 12/14/2012 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

We would not recommend any color-changing LED lights in a dark colored pool as the colors will not show up. The 601101 Intellibrite 5g Pool LED White Light would be a better choice.

What size pool is recommended for the maximum effect of this light fixture?
 Reply

A  Answered on 12/22/2014 by InyoPools Product Specialist Robert M.

Hello Clayton - In a pool with a light colored surface, one Pentair model 601001 is enough for a pool size up to 16'x32'. Anything larger will require multiple lights.

I now have 2 SAM lights in my pool controlled by my Jandy Aqualink. I would like to get 2 Pentair Intellibrite 5g lights. Will they work with my Jandy? Also will they operate together and stay in sync?

Hello Cindy - The Jandy can turn the Intellibrite lights on an off. The Intellibrite lights will stay synced up as long as they are wired to the same relay.

We have a Pentair series 600015, 600016, 600017 and 600022, is there a cross reference number for a replacement light?
 Reply

A  Answered on 6/13/2015 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

You would have the older Pentair SAM Light which has been replaced by the new Pentair LED Intellibrite Lights. The Intellibrite lights are replacements for the SAM light and fit into the same niche as your SAM lights. When clicking through to the Pentair LED Intellibrite Lights you will just need to select if you have a pool or spa light, your voltage (12V or 120V) and your cord length.

 Reply

A  Answered on 7/15/2015 by InyoPools Product Specialist Hector F.

The first generation Intellibrites manufactured between 2007-2009 have a replacement engine kit being part number 60076 and the second generation Intellibrites manufactured after 2009 have a replacement kit being part number 619818Z. Both are special orders and have an approximate lead time of 2-3 weeks.
