Review on Lutron Maestro MACL-153M-WH LED+ Dimmer Single/Multi Pole White For LEDs, Halogen & Incandescent Bulbs by Troy Boren
Works great, but never actually turns the bulbs fully off
I bought this unit to dim 7 led light fixtures. It brightens and dims seamlessly with no flickering at all, but the bulbs never actually turn off, they just go down to a very dull glow. I suppose this is due to the fact that this unit does not need a neutral connection (making it super-easy to install) but this means that it always allows a very small current to pass and this results in the dull glow of the bulbs? There is a manual "bulb-change" switch at the bottom of the unit which allows you to fully turn-off the circuit. I bought a Lutron Toggler LED+ Dimmer Switch for Dimmable LED, Halogen and Incandescent Bulbs for the next circuit and this does allow you to fully turn off the lights (and it was cheaper).
- 4.3 ounces
- The switch may not be compatible with older electrical systems
