Mini-Brio Switch RGB: The Colour LED Projector Designed for Renovation Without Major Work
Do you have a screw-in pool light on the return jet that no longer works, and you want to replace it without opening your walls or changing the wiring? The CCEI Mini-Brio Switch RGB is specifically designed for this situation. Its disconnectable design allows you to connect the new projector directly to the existing cable, without masonry work or needing an electrician to re-route the wires. It's the simplest and quickest replacement solution to restore functional and modern pool lighting, in a single afternoon.
An RGB Projector with 10 Colours and Animation Modes
Beyond its ease of installation, the Mini-Brio Switch RGB offers truly versatile lighting performance. It features 10 selectable colours and lighting modes: white, red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, as well as several transition and progressive colour-changing modes. You can thus adapt your pool's lighting ambiance to suit the occasion — family swimming, evening with friends, solitary night-time relaxation — without any technical constraints.
Colour changes are simply controlled from the electrical panel or a compatible control box, by a brief power interruption. No remote control to manage, no app to install: colour switching remains accessible and intuitive, even for the least tech-savvy users.
Compatibility and Mounting: Screws into a 1.5-inch Return Jet
The Mini-Brio Switch RGB screws directly onto your pool's standard 1.5-inch return jet — the most common format for pools built in France. It replaces the vast majority of previous generation screw-in projectors without adaptation, regardless of their original brand, as long as the 1.5" thread is present.
Installation follows 8 simple steps described in the provided manual. After cutting off the electrical supply — an essential step before any manipulation — you cut the old projector's cable, strip 15 mm of sheath and 8 mm of wires, then pass the cable through the cable gland located at the back of the projector. You check the position of the sealing gasket, grease this gasket before mounting, connect the two wires to the connectors at the back of the projector, close the plug with the nut by tightening it fully, then tighten the cable gland. All that remains is to screw the projector back into the 1.5" return jet. The disconnectable connection avoids any re-cabling: the existing cable is kept as is.
Trim Ring to be Ordered Separately for a Neat Finish
The Mini-Brio Switch RGB requires a trim ring, sold separately. The trim ring provides the visual finish of the projector on the pool side and neatly covers the return jet opening. CCEI offers a wide range of trim rings in different shapes and colours — white, grey, anthracite, beige — to match your pool's coating and aesthetics. It's also an opportunity to modernise the visual appearance of the projector by coordinating its colour with that of your installation's return jets or skimmers.
If you are equipping multiple return jets, make sure to order as many trim rings as projectors installed, and select the same model for a consistent look.
Why Choose a Screw-in Return Jet Projector Instead of a Niche Projector?
Installation on a return jet offers several decisive advantages for renovation. Unlike a PAR56 niche projector, which requires a niche embedded in the pool wall — often complex underwater masonry work — the screw-in projector mounts on an existing jet, without drilling or modifying the pool structure. It is the ideal solution for pools that do not have original lighting niches, or whose niches are damaged and difficult to repair.
The Mini-Brio Switch fully embodies this logic: it is specifically designed for renovation, with a disconnectable connection system that further simplifies implementation. The result is quality, waterproof, durable, and visually discreet lighting, installed without heavy work.
CCEI, a French Reference in Pool Lighting
CCEI is a French manufacturer specialising in electrical equipment for swimming pools for several decades. Its projectors are recognised for their reliability, watertightness, and compatibility with the entire CCEI ecosystem — control boxes, dimmers, control systems. The Mini-Brio Switch RGB benefits from this expertise and integrates natively into an existing CCEI installation, while remaining compatible with control boxes from other brands as long as they supply 12 V or 230 V depending on the version concerned. Consult the technical manual to check compatibility with your specific installation.

Frequently asked questions about the CCEI Mini-Brio Switch RGB
A screw-on return fitting light attaches directly to the existing water return nozzle (1.5-inch return fitting) without requiring a built-in niche in the pool wall. Unlike the PAR56 niche light, which requires a dedicated opening in the pool structure—often complex and costly underwater masonry work—the Mini-Brio Switch simply screws onto the existing return fitting. This is the ideal solution for pools without an original lighting niche, and the simplest for renovation without heavy work.
The disconnectable connection of the Mini-Brio Switch means that the light connects directly to the existing electrical cable of your old light, without having to run a new cable or hire an electrician to modify the wiring. Specifically, you just need to cut the cable of the old light, strip and bare the wires, then connect them into the terminals at the back of the new light. This is the very principle that distinguishes the Switch version: a replacement in less than an afternoon, without opening the walls or completely emptying the pool.
The Mini-Brio Switch RGB offers 10 colors and lighting modes: white, red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, yellow, as well as several transition and progressive color change modes. Switching from one color to another is controlled directly from the electrical panel or a compatible control box, by a brief power cut. No remote control or application is necessary: the principle is simple and intuitive, accessible to all users, even the less tech-savvy.
The Mini-Brio Switch screws onto standard 1.5-inch return fittings, which is the most common diameter for pools built in France. It is compatible with the vast majority of existing water return nozzles, regardless of your original installation's brand. If you have any doubts about the diameter of your return fitting, measure the nozzle's thread or consult your pool's documentation. In case of a different return fitting diameter, reducers or adapters may be necessary.
No, the trim ring is sold separately. It provides the visual finish for the light on the pool side by neatly covering the return fitting opening. CCEI offers a range of compatible Mini-Brio Switch trim rings in several colors—white, gray, anthracite, beige—to match the coating and aesthetics of your pool. If you are installing multiple lights, remember to order as many trim rings as lights and choose the same model for a uniform look throughout the pool.
Absolutely cut off the power supply before any manipulation. Then: (1) cut the cable at the back of the old light; (2) strip 15 mm of sheath and bare 8 mm of wires; (3) pass the cable through the rear cable gland, checking the position of the waterproof seal; (4) grease the seal before mounting; (5) connect the two wires into the terminals at the back of the light; (6) close the rear plug with the nut, tightening it fully; (7) tighten the cable gland; (8) screw the light back into the 1.5-inch return fitting. The entire operation takes less than an hour and requires no specialized tools.
Yes, in the vast majority of cases. The Mini-Brio Switch is designed to replace any 1.5-inch screw-on return fitting light, regardless of the original brand (Hayward, AstralPool, Pentair, etc.), as long as the existing cable is compatible with the Mini-Brio Switch's power supply voltage. The disconnectable connection allows reuse of the existing cable without modification. Simply check the power supply voltage of your installation (12V or 230V) by consulting the technical notice before purchase to confirm compatibility.
Installing the Mini-Brio Switch does not require modifying existing wiring or hiring an electrician to run new wires. The disconnectable system allows a knowledgeable DIYer to perform the replacement themselves. However, any work on a pool electrical circuit must comply with NF C 15-100 standards (safety volumes around pools). If you have any doubt about the conformity of your electrical installation or the power supply voltage, it is recommended to have the final installation validated by a qualified electrician.
These two CCEI screw-on return fitting lights mainly differ in their control mode and LED technology. The Mini-Brio Switch is controlled by power interruption (simple and without additional accessories) and offers 10 RGB colors. The Mini-Brio 2 is compatible with CCEI's BRiO RC+ control system, which allows control from a dedicated box with more lighting scenarios and integration into a pool home automation system. The Switch is the ideal choice for a simple and economical renovation; the Mini-Brio 2 is suitable for installations desiring more advanced lighting management.
The number of lights depends on the size of the pool and the desired lighting effect. Generally, one light is estimated for 20 to 25 m² of pool surface for functional lighting. For an immersive effect and homogeneous color diffusion, it is advisable to provide more, distributed symmetrically on the walls. If your pool already has several return nozzles, you can equip several simultaneously—remember to order the same number of matching trim rings for a uniform finish throughout the pool.
