I actually screwed the light right into the Eclipse 12 canopy. I just took out the regular light and replaced with that.

Ok, about how high above water level would that be?
Just want to make sure I don't cook everybody changing from the 13w to the 96 w

Probably 3 inches. I have not noticed heat issues, however I have not had it up and running long enough to know I guess. I will let you know how it goes. My house is air conditioned so I am not going to bother with a chiller.

Haha Zinc is a bad idea. I just lifted the canopy and it was dripping everywhere. Any other ideas to water proof the fixture?

Silicone should work I would think.
