Mains fountain lights

Mains fountain lights  (lights operated by the mains) may sound a good idea, but if you are within the E.U  you are not allowed to use them. This has been so for around 10+ years (unless you know different, please tell us)

The most commonly available mains operated external use light used a par 38 lamp, although not easily broken if you did break one you then have mains electricity directly in your pool.
Par 38 lamps are available for other uses, such as garden lighting, and should be installed by a qualified electrician.

  This is a par 38 lamp

230 v ac (mains)   80 watt

     

This is a lunaqua 5 light, it is from an American website

  This is a Lunaqua 5 mains operated submersible light,  it uses a par 38 lamp (see above) All mains supplied lights were banned some years ago for use in or near water  in the UK, and now the EU

The Lunaqua 5  should not be confused with the Lunaqua 5.1

All UK /EU pond and fountain lights must now be supplied via a step-down transformer

If you want pool / fountain lighting see our parts website, all lights are a safe 12 volts
