Very often, pool owners do not install lighting when they purchase their swimming pool and are shocked at the expense and difficulty of adding lights later.

Some types of floating pool lights are solar pool lights. They work by capturing the sun’s energy via solar collectors located on the top of their waterproof case. The collected solar energy charges a rechargeable battery located within the light, and then the solar pool lights are turned on automatically at night via a light sensor. As a result they do not use any costly electricity. Solar pool lights are usually small and can be easily moved around. You can choose to group these pool lights or just illuminate certain areas. During the months where your pool, fountain or pond is not operating, the lights can still be used to add ambiance at parties or as a landscape accent piece.
