Awesome addition to my outdoor lighting!

This dimmer has an awesome range of lighting settings, and is easily controlled with the remote! So glad I purchased it! Thanks!

Pros
  • Easy to install and works as designed !
Cons
  • Not suitable for commercial use

I was completely satisfied with this product and would have given a 5 star rating. However, this has worked fine through all the rain for several months, but the first time it sat in 2 inchest of snow, it broke. It will no longer work. My window to return passed last month so now I am out the money.

Pros
  • I wish it would dim lower than 25%. Options are 100, 75, 50, or 25. No in between options.
Cons
  • Broke after a month.

Works very well but trips with 300 watts

The dimmer works very well, fine control of intensities, the timer is also very helpful. The remote control works almost from anywhere, which is great. The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because the dimmer trips at 300 watts.

Pros
  • Works as advertised.
Cons
  • Can be affected by extreme weather conditions

Great outdoor dimmer

Great for my outdoor string lights. I use the remote every night to light up the yard for the dog and the dimming is great to set the mood

Pros
  • I love ❤️ this dimmer! I am using it indoors on a fancy pole type lamp! Works great! Love the remote!
Cons
  • Risk of electrical shock if installed incorrectly

Works great!: my feedback

The product is just exactly what I was looking for.The remote allows you to have 4 light settings and4 timer settings. A BARGAIN!

Pros
  • K) Saves energy by dimming the lights
Cons
  • May not work with all types of outdoor string lights

Sturdy construction and the remote is awesome!

I had a nice string of light I put up on my patio, but needed an outdoor dimmer to finish off the project. The Newpow is just the ticket! Sturdy, waterproof, and the remote has lots of options! I can be in my condo and hit the button on the remote and then choose the brightness in increments of 25% up to 100% brightness. I would recommend the product!

Pros
  • This was super easy to install and use and creates great ambiance - love it!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use with all string light lengths

Yup love them - my new review

I love the dimmer. I bought a string of lights that were much too bright for my porch. The dimmer goes nice and low or really bright! (I don’t use Alexa so I don’t know how it works with that which is the only reason I put 1 star there bc they won’t allow you to leave it blank)

Pros
  • V) Can be used all year round, no matter the weather
Cons
  • May not work with all types of outdoor spaces

Not grounded plug in my review

I had to change the plug to a flat style & when cutting off what appears to be a 3 wire grounded plug I found it was only a 2 wire. As you can see the ground terminal has never been attached to a wire. There are only 2 wires white & black no green. I find this alarming in that by look it is a grounded plug & it is just a ground plug molded in that goes to nothing. Just so you know what your getting.

Pros
  • Like to be able toDim lower but it’s ok
Cons
  • Dimmer switch may be difficult to locate in the dark

Great remote for dimmable lighting

The remote allows setting a timer to turn the lights off, and also allows for adjusting brightness from 25% to 100% in increments of 25%. The unit does turn the lights on when power is restored after a power loss oddly enough, but I don't find this to be a show stopper.

Pros
  • Read the title
Cons
  • Some customers may find the price too expensive

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent customer service

I'd give this 5 stars, but the first set didn't work. However, I e-mailed the company and they express shipped the replacement which works fine. This level of customer service is exceptional. Thank you.

Pros
  • O) Enhances the appearance of outdoor spaces
Cons
  • May not have enough range to adjust brightness properly

BEST DIMMER for my opinion

I purchased this for our balcony string lights and I love it. I don’t have to go outside to plug and unplug the lights. The remote does the job! Recommend it!

Pros
  • Loving this!!! Using it on a daily basis and it’s the best!!
Cons
  • May not be adjustable enough for some customers

Outdoor remote control dimmer

The dimmer unit itself is fine and works good. However, the only issue is the remote control device. You have to be very close to the plug-in unit for the handheld remote to work and then you have to press the buttons several times before the activate.It the handheld device worked better I would have rated it a 5.

Pros
  • E) Ideal for creating a cozy ambiance
Cons
  • May be difficult to turn on and off in the dark

Pros

Cons
  • May require additional power source

Great Customer Service

This product does exactly what it is designed to do - and does it well. I installed the dimmer at the beginning of summer, and for some reason the remote stopped connecting to the dimmer. I messaged Newpow, and they were able to remedy the problem with absolutely no hassle. Will definitely buy from this seller again.

Pros
  • Q) Allows for greater control over your lighting
Cons
  • May not have a long enough lifespan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Turns on after a power outage, but otherwise solid.

Product is easy to use. The holes for mounting on the wall appear to be big enough for nails but probably not screws. It comes with neither.Only real complaint is that if you have a power outage (thunderstorm or maybe it's winter in Texas), it will turn on with the lights at full intensity once power comes back. I suppose this is it's default state and a sufficiently long power outage drains some internal capacitor meant to help with storing the thing's state during brownouts.

Pros
  • Dimmer is perfect!! Different functions, 12%,50%,75% or 100% or manually set it!! Great dimmer!!
Cons
  • Dimming function may be unnoticeable on some string lights

Great Dimmer! best in my review

We wanted a dimmer control for our outdoor lights and this dimmer is perfect! It has a variety of settings besides percentages of dimness. We can even control it from inside the house! It's exactly what we were looking for!

Pros
  • a dusk to dawn setting would make this a 5 start product
Cons
  • Limited availability in certain regions

Works great: my feedback

The remote is easy to use and has a good range with it. The only dislike I have is whenever the power goes out and back on it turns the lights on, even if they were off to start with. Other than that no problems.

Pros
  • P) Can be used for outdoor events, such as weddings, parties and celebrations
Cons
  • May not be as durable as other outdoor light dimmers
