How is fiber optic lighting better than traditional pool lighting?

it can be much prettier. of course it also moves electricity away from water alway a good thing, but a properly installed 12 volt light is also very safe and much less expensive.

A fiber optic lighting rig can also provide light that is more evenly distributed through the pool and requires only one light source. Changing a burnt bulb is also much less of a hassle since the lamp is not below the water line.
