COMPREHENSIVE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: What lighting configuration does this 6VA DB box support?
A: Specifically designed for 1x LED blue light ONLY with dedicated 6A circuit breaker providing optimal protection and performance. The 6VA transformer capacity supports single LED blue light operation only – NOT suitable for multiple lights, colour-changing RGB/RGBW lights, or white LED lights requiring different specifications.

The 6VA transformer capacity supports single LED blue light operation only – NOT suitable for multiple lights, colour-changing RGB/RGBW lights, or white LED lights requiring different specifications.
Q: Why can this DB box only support 1x LED blue light?
A: The 6VA transformer capacity is sized for single LED blue light consumption (typical 15-20VA). Multiple lights or colour-changing lights require higher VA capacity: 50VA for 2-3 lights, 125VA for 3-6 lights, or 200VA for 6+ lights. This compact 6VA model optimized for smaller pools with basic single-light requirements.

Q: What if I want to add more lights later?
A: Adding additional lights requires upgrading to higher capacity DB box (50VA, 125VA, or 200VA models). The 6VA transformer cannot support multiple lights – attempting to connect additional lights causes overload, transformer failure, and safety hazards. Consult electrician for proper DB box sizing.

Q: Can I use this DB box for colour-changing RGB or RGBW lights?
A: No, colour-changing lights consume significantly more power (25-35VA each) than single-colour blue lights (15-20VA). RGB/RGBW lights require minimum 50VA DB box for single light or 125VA for multiple lights. This 6VA model designed exclusively for single blue LED light.
