replace a dead pool light with an exact model

Is $1,600 to replace a dead pool light with an exact model a fair price?

Project Details

My main pool light died after 5 years, and I received a quote for $1600 to replace it with the exact same model. This is much more than I expected, and I'm looking for cheaper alternatives, possibly by replacing just the bulb or a different light fixture. I've identified the current light as a Jandy RGBW Watercolors LED, likely 120V. I'm concerned about color consistency with my spa light, which is half the size. I'm handy and plan to pull the light myself to explore options, as I don't want to spend $1500 on a light that might die quickly. I'm open to non-Jandy options if they are more affordable and can provide similar colors like cobalt or Caribbean blue.

Quote Details

This quote is for the replacement of a dead main pool light with an exact match to the existing unit. The existing light is identified as a Jandy RGBW Watercolors LED, likely 120V, which is a color-changing bulb that cycles through colors.
