Fitment

Before you assume it fits
Same brand does not mean same cell. Hayward publishes an exclusion for at least one of its own generations, and it is the most expensive thing on this page to skip.

What it costs over its rated life
The price half of this answer is not published yet. What is published is the denominator, which is the half that decides whether a cost comparison means anything.
The cost per hour cannot be computed for this cell, and the reason is the finding. Hayward publishes no rated life figure in any of the 30 documents searched, so any dollars-per-hour number you see elsewhere has a denominator somebody made up. The dated price range above is the honest half of the answer.
