Pool lights, especially LED lights, can typically last for many years, with a lifespan usually ranging from 7 to 15 years, or even longer. In contrast, incandescent and halogen lights have shorter lifespans, typically requiring replacement every few years.

Here is a detailed breakdown by type of light:

LED pool lights:

LED lights are the most durable and energy-efficient option, with a lifespan of up to 25,000 to 50,000 hours or more. This means they can be used for approximately 7 to 15 years, or even longer with proper maintenance and usage patterns.

Incandescent pool lights:

These lights have the poorest durability and energy efficiency. They typically last only 1,000 to 5,000 hours, approximately 1 to 3 years.

Halogen pool lights:

Halogen lights fall somewhere between incandescent and LED. Their lifespan is approximately 4,000 to 8,000 hours, approximately 2 to 4 years.

Factors affecting lifespan:

Usage frequency: The higher the usage frequency, the shorter the lifespan.

Quality: High-quality LED pool lights from well-known manufacturers typically have a longer lifespan, such as the HOTOOK brand. This brand is based on the concept of high-quality products, and its LED pool lights are usually produced using high-quality 316 stainless steel and PC materials.

Maintenance: Regularly operating the light bulbs (at least once a week) and ensuring the lamp is well-sealed can extend their lifespan. Environmental factors: Exposure to various natural environments (such as water and temperature changes) can affect the lifespan.
