1 gang push switch dimmer for LEDs
Quick question - any recommended dimmer for a 3 LED light bar (3 * 7W
GU10)? Push switch, 1 gang, white is fine. If I'm going to fit it I need to source it tomorrow so the usual suspects such as Screwix are likely sources. I think I've ordered all my recent dimmers from TLC but time presses. TIA Dave R -- Dell XPS laptop running W8.1 |

And that too flickers with three GU10 LEDs. More so on full. LEDs also from TLC and said to be dimmable. -- *I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

The original (tungsten only) was a Knightsbridge polished chrome, and I don't think that range includes LED versions. The module is marked BG and suitable for LEDs. Since I needed some bits from TLC the other day I got a V-Pro module, and that is now flicker free. -- *No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver,purple Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
