This looks identical to the Moonrays unit, but can this be used for submersible fixtures? he Moonray page says it can't. Is this different/safer?

I have no knowledge about the Moonrays unit. The instructions that came with the Paradise GL22300 say in bold print, "Suitable for use with submersible Lights."

Not sure. Because each inside of the light has a magnet. So it has too make contact. One piece goes in the pool and one on the outside the pool. It douse illuminate the pool well. Better than other pool light I've had. I had doughboy before & used the hang over rail type. Costed twice as much as this one. I guess you would have try it. Good luck

I don't understand. Explain how you would put this into a flood light sensor. Which sensor won't work, your existing one? This is made to support only one light. It sounds like you have an existing flood light at has a sensor that doesn't work any more. If you can activate that original system to remain on all the time then you could screw this device into an existing light socket and it should work. I don't know if this device is water proof, you may need to shield it from the weather.

I use mine in mineral spirits. Been submersed since i recieved it and still is working. I hopr for a long time. Make sure you krrp the pump submersed to keep iy cool.

I would say the new fixture would be better because you can customize the color spectrum. Your question would be better suited for the Finnex staff on their website.

unfortunately don't know the answer to this. we have never submersed it... but we are very very pleased with this having used it repeatedly!

None of them!! It was designed for a container manufactured overseas (like the unit) and the threads are not compatible. On the plus side, the pump is fully submersible, and the best containers we found are the Aqua Tainer 7Gal (dark blue cube), it has a wide enough mouth that the whole pump drops right in with the hose, cable, etc.

i would not buy these moonrays for any reason........they are complicated..the wire is thin...and with any luck they will not work at all. once we opend the package and looked at the complicated system with the super short wiring system we sent them back. they are just not worth the $$$$ to buy them. if you want a great lighting system do what we did and went to kmart and spent $50.00 and bought the 8-solar lights with two spotlights and the system is just fabulous. we are still enjoying it problem free with bright lights months later. pass on the moonrays.

These lights need a low voltage transformer that states it can be used with submersible lighting. I have found most transformer below 300 watt state that they are not suitable for submersible lighting.

I have had saltwater aquariums for over 30 years and am not familiar with freshwater lighting requirements, but I can't imagine why it would not be ideal. My LED TrueLumen fixture has performed great, perfect light color and intensity, they have different light colors to select from and I have had no algae growth or heat. It is so thin, the mounting is fantastic. I would not have anything else now.

Yes . . . but, if you are buying a new one, the non-submersible model is a lower cost purchase --the main difference is the screw-on cap, which has a thick rubber seal to keep water from getting in --safety tip: all of these small Malibu light models are very hot, so be advised --

I would not try to mount this light underwater. It will not last. Its can be wet but not submerged in water. I tell you from experience.

The packaging says "not suitable for totally enclosed fixtures or insulated air tight recessed down lights" and "do not use where directly exposed to water". But it sounds like your lamp post would be OK. Note that it also says "not compatible with photo controls..."

These units are sealed so you should be able to get creative with mounting. That being said I would not submerge the light.

NOT GOOD TO SUBMERGE!! Water RESISTANT. Do not even by this flashlight (waste of money!!) I'm returning mine. 25-100 lumens (NOT 1800)

I installed it myself n it did burn out. I'm not a professional but have installed other fixtures with no problems. My repair guy said I installed it wrong n could have burned the house down. It is beautiful so i bought another one. When I bought it I never read about the hazards. I wouldn't have bought a second one. I'll keep a close eye on this one.

This is not a diving light; it's not submersible AT ALL. It's "weather-proof," but even the most intense rain is very different from immersion. If you immerse this light while it's energized you'll destroy it. If it gets dunked while it's turned off, you MAY be able to save it by removing the batteries ASAP and letting it cook in the sun with the battery case open for a couple days. I suspect a diving light as nice as this thing is going to cost you mega-$$$$. I wouldn't even know where to look.
