You can get perfectly good suitable under water lights from Harbor Freight, that are well made for a fraction of what other well known companies charge for a like item. They come with assorted colored lens, and about 18 feet of underwater wire, and a transformer. If you want to attach a few under water lights up yu can cut off the plug ends and but a suitable wattage rated xformer from any big box store that has ouside low voltage lights of 12 volts and attach all the wires formn the multiple lights to the replacement transformer... The lights use standard halogen type bulbs which are commonly available. The lights you pay $45 or more each for is not any better made nor do anything any better than the $7.95 lights from Harbor Freight. I have 10 of the HF lights in my pond for over 3 years and not one of them has even leaked....And y can increase the wattage of the bulbs 9n these lights just fine without anya problems as the wire is usfficient to carry the load and the water keeps the heat down, but I would suggest 10 watts or 20 watts max so they do not add a lot of heat to a pond..

Thats what I paid when I bought the last couple last year for my wifes
half barrels water featuyre. I have seen em on sale for a buck or two less as well.......may be hard to belive but they are a decent quality item, made out of the same typical molded fiberglass reinforced resin as other brands are made of. Can't speak for the transformers, as I use a large transformer to opiwer lots of low voltage lights, but no reason it would not be a decent xformer thats included.... I just looked on Harbor Freights website and could not find them, but I now they have em a I seen em at the store about 2 weeks ago, so if your nterested just call em and inquire and get them to give you a product ID number so you can look em up on their website.

I just looked at sites on port cargo and can not find them, but I now have an EM of EM I've ever seen in the store about 2 weeks ago, so just call if you interested EM and inquiry and let them give you a Product ID number so you can look at their website EM.

You can fully competent in the light-water cargo port, which has been what kind of other companies similar charges known parts. They come with color matched lenses, and about 18 submarine cables and a transformer in the foot. The use of halogen lamps is a common standard.
