Review on 🔘 Lutron Skylark S2-LFSQ-LA 1.5-Amp Single Pole 3-Speed Combination Fan and Light Control, Light Almond - 300-Watt by Jimmy Hargrove

I have to admit. I don't like ivory because it's too yellowish and looks dated. Well, this handle design and color isn't appropriate for more modern homes, but if you have an older home and most of the other wall outlets in the house have similar wall panels or other AC outlets in the house, you also have this old ivory/beige color then it's the only one Ability to look uniform. OK. No entrails or anything similar can be seen in the product photos. I'll try to explain what it is to the best of my ability. This Lutron S2-LFSQ-IV thing has three wires on the back. An AC Live In, two adjustable line outputs, one for FAN, one for light or similar loads. This occupies a group, also called "Roker" or "Paddle" on your existing wall plate, also known as "Decora" Rocker Opening which is a trademark of Leviton Company. If you plan to add this new one then the ivory colored Lutron Claro 1 Gang Decorator Wallplate, CW-1-IV, ivory controller discussed here should have a matching burgundy colored wallplate (named Lutron) which is needed to complete the job to complete. Colors and names aside, the electronics in this Lutron controller are good. PS: There are two different circuits that all share a common live wire (the neutral wire is not needed as it is common to the loads). On the FAN side, it's a "four-position switch" for OFF, Low, Medium, and High. The high position is only a direct connection to Live. The OFF position turns off the fan or similar inductive load. Incidentally, it regulates the speed of the ceiling fan precisely and conveniently, without additional noise or variability. It is equipped with two AC capacitors for the "Low" and "Medium" switch positions. His circuit is based on using the old "capacitive reactance" in a purely inductive load circuit, where FAN is a series load countercurrent to the current flow in AC circuits, as opposed to using resistors or SCR/TRIAC which introduce noise. On the other hand the light control slider has a TRIAC or similar device and the slider has a switch to turn the light off and the slider is actually also a potentiometer used to change the brightness of the bulbs in the circuit. There are no preset breakpoints. It will get darker or lighter as the lever slides freely. This triac based dimmer circuit is designed to control load power from an AC power source. It's equipped with an inductor choke, although for some reason it's quite powerful. This device can only supply half-wave or intermittent current to the load. Based on the dimmer works effectively in reducing the brightness of the lamp. Ideal for good old light bulbs. Not suitable for LEDs unless clearly marked as "dimmable", but most LED bulbs unless specifically designed to work with TRIAC or SCR based dimmers are questionable and may not work properly and begin to flicker at low frequencies. This does not necessarily mean that the dimmer is defective. Of course it's not cheap. But again it works as advertised and the quality is good, deserves five stars!
