I am using a 12 V 20 amp lamp dimmer to control some LED lighting.
While my two DVM's show nearly equal input voltage to the dimmer, they

dimmer settings.Â* Why the different in voltage readings on two
different DVM's and how to remedy?

You talking a scope here or something else? If a scope,
unfortunately, I don't own one.
