show devices which are simply powered by three AA batteries. The smallest, the Underwater Light Splash, offers five different light show effects. Next is the Underwater Light Show, which floats on the water surface and projects seven different effects onto the pool sides and bottom.

FINAL TOUCHES FROM ATMOSPHERIC ZONE LED lighting for the pool industry is more understood and fast becoming the standard choice of many companies. SSL (Solid State Lighting) as it is often referred to has progressed from a simple low power bulky unit to an amazingly high efficiency, powerful, reliable product. Building requirements Part L in all versions (Conservation of Fuel & Power) now specify that the lumens produced must equate to a certain level for every circuit watt consumed – LEDs are the answer!
Clients’ requirements and aspirations have also changed significantly in line with available technological advancement and this too has helped drive the industry forward. Requirements for precise colour control, mood or scene setting are all possible, and of course, all controlled via your smartphone. They offer the complete space lighting from exterior to interior lighting. LED lighting has many specific characteristics that need to be understood prior to installation. The question from the pool industry Atmospheric Zone are often asked is, how does it compare to the standard 300W halogen lamp? There are so many factors that need to be taken into consideration rather than just comparing total lumen outputs. For example: Many RGB lamps offer a lumen output based on all LEDs powering on at full at the same time. Beam angle of LED lighting is also a major factor as this can lead to many misleading conclusions
