Below are the numbers embossed on the tranformer for the underwater
halogen light in my swimming pool. The transformer is housed in a weather
proof box away from the pool. The manufacturer (PentAir) wants $200 +
S/H for the replacement part which includes the weather proof box.
PentAir assembles the pool accessories. I doubt if the manufacture the tranformer. PentAir does not want to provide the name of the transformer
manufacturer or the specifications of the tranformer so that may find a
SAFE - LEAST COST alternative.

Jinkers, it kills me to see the pool pros gouge the consumer.

680001 A+
OBJY2 130R2
EIA172-0221 H

In addition to these codes there is a logo that looks like "RU" with the "R"
flipped horizontally.

I have tested the bulb for continuity with positve results. I think the
tranformer is shot. I have tried GOOGLING these but came up empty.
The line voltage is 120 VAC. The load voltage and AMP rating is unknown.

Any help would be appreciated
