The Pentair IntelliVibe Micro Luminaire with a 150' cable and 12W power is a compact LED pool and spa light designed for vibrant color illumination. Here's a breakdown of its key features and what you should know:  

Key Features:

• Part of the IntelliVibe System: This light is part of Pentair's IntelliVibe lighting system, which allows for control of millions of colors, dimming, and independent control of up to four lighting zones via the Pentair Pool app.  
• Micro Size: With a diameter of approximately 2 inches, it's designed to mount in standard 1.5-inch pool fittings, making it suitable for illuminating pools, spas, and sun shelves. It can also replace MicroBrite lights.
• Color LED: Offers a wide spectrum of colors and 12 color-changing light shows for dynamic lighting effects.  
• Energy Efficient: Consumes only 12W of power, offering energy savings compared to traditional incandescent lights.
• 12V Operation: This luminaire operates on a safe, low-voltage 12V AC power, requiring a compatible Pentair IntelliVibe Controller and a PS300 transformer (both sold separately).
• 150' Cable: The long cable provides flexibility in installation location.
• No Niche Required: Designed to install directly into standard 1.5-inch threaded return fittings, eliminating the need for a traditional light niche.
• Dimmable: The light intensity can be adjusted through the Pentair Pool app to set the desired mood.  
• Three-Wire Connection: Features a three-wire cable (white, green, black) for power and communication with the IntelliVibe Controller. The green wire is for communication and not for grounding.  

Benefits:

• Customizable Lighting: Offers millions of color options and dynamic light shows controllable via a smartphone app.  
• Energy Savings: Low power consumption reduces electricity costs.
• Easy Installation: The nicheless design simplifies the installation process, especially as a replacement for existing lights in return fittings.
• Versatile Placement: The compact size allows for installation in various pool and spa features.
• Enhanced Ambiance: Creates a vibrant and personalized lighting experience for your pool and spa.

Important Considerations:

• Requires IntelliVibe Controller: This light is not backward compatible with Pentair's legacy lighting systems (IntelliBrite, MicroBrite, GloBrite). It requires the dedicated IntelliVibe Controller (part # 602260) for operation and color control.  
• Requires Transformer: A Pentair PS300 300VA 120V to 14VAC transformer (part # 619963) is needed to power the IntelliVibe system.
• Professional Installation Recommended: While the light itself is relatively easy to install into a fitting, the electrical connections to the controller and transformer should be performed by a licensed electrician according to local codes.
• Wiring: Use 12 AWG 3-wire cable to connect the light to the IntelliVibe Controller. Ensure all three conductors are connected properly.

The Pentair IntelliVibe Micro Luminaire is a modern and feature-rich lighting solution for those looking to add dynamic and controllable color lighting to their pool or spa environment. Remember to purchase the necessary IntelliVibe Controller and transformer for it to function.
