Hayward Universal ColorLogic LED Pool Light
Best fits-any-niche fixture — The universal retrofit fixture: Hayward's Universal ColorLogic is a 12V all-plastic color LED that drops into virtually any existing large wet niche, at about $160 — far less than the OEM flagships. It changes color on a wall switch (OmniLogic optional). The catch is honest: at 3.2 stars, its owner base carries real early-failure reports.
