FAQs

What is the maximum wattage for LED bulbs on this dimmer?

The maximum load for dimmable LED bulbs is 150W.

Can I use this dimmer with non-dimmable LED bulbs?

No, this dimmer is designed for use exclusively with dimmable LED, Halogen, or Incandescent bulbs. Using non-dimmable bulbs can cause damage or malfunction.

How do I switch between trailing edge and leading edge modes?

You can switch between modes using the simple push-button setup as described in the setup instructions. This usually involves pressing and holding a specific button during power-up or a designated sequence.

What type of switches are needed for 2-way control?

For multi-location switching with this 2-way intelligent dimmer, you will need to use standard 2-way switches in the additional locations.

Does the screwless plate come with the dimmer?

Yes, the product features a stylishly screwless white metal flat plate design.

What is the benefit of soft-start technology?

Soft-start technology slowly brings lights to the set level over 1-2 seconds, which reduces stress on the bulbs and prolongs their lifespan.

What safety features are included?

This dimmer includes short circuit protection, overload protection, and a self-recovering thermal fuse for enhanced safety and reliability.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer not responding or flickering.

Ensure power is restored and the connected bulbs are dimmable and within the wattage limits. Try switching between trailing edge and leading edge modes. Check wiring connections.

Lights do not dim smoothly.

Verify that only dimmable bulbs are installed and that they are compatible with the dimmer's technology. Ensure the total load does not exceed the specified maximum wattage.

2-way switching is not working correctly.

Confirm that the additional switch used is a standard 2-way switch and that the wiring between the dimmer and the secondary switch is correct.

Dimmer switch feels warm.

A slight warmth is normal under load. If the switch is excessively hot, turn off power immediately and check the bulb wattage and wiring. Overload protection should prevent damage, but investigate the cause.
