Hey Folks!

I currently have a large outer-ring of LED's multi-colored and it didn't give me much light-bounce from it. So this year I'm going to switch to clear/white. The question I have for you-all is how do I get the most light-effect from LED placement? Close to the fountain-head or out under the ground-spray? Thanks for the help!

that is something you might have to experiment with. I really don't know what would be best. It seems if the lights are near the spray and can reflect off of it you will get more light throw back.

I have one from last year and the colors showed better out farther but they also sorta hid the water .You got a glare and the water did not look like water .A friend gave me mine last year as a birthday gift .I changed the fountain head to the bell shaped one and it looked much better seems the foaming head just did nothing for the look of it .The bell one or the regular fountain head was much better ,I like the bell shaped one myself .
