Works, but not perfect.

I'm using this to control a Magnitude M200L12DC LED driver and about 150 watts of dimmable under-cabinet LEDs in my new kitchen. Not really pleased as there is a 60-cycle flicker at some lower brightness settings, and irratically a noticable flicker at some settings that seems to have no cause. Usually turning the lights on and off or changing the brightness will make this go away. It seems that some voltage stabilization and / or trimming would be a nice feature to have on this unit.

Pros
  • DIMMERS were perfect work great
Cons
  • Limited dimming range

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Serious isssues with any dimmable LED circuits in same house.

Not enough electrical noise filtering ability to be of use anywhere near LED lighting circuits, no mitigating of power surges from transformer-operated low-voltage lighting. Zero improvement, in fact it is worse over use of the standard Lutron dimmer. Lutron needs to add voltage spike filtering to either this product or more ability to their LED dimmers. If you have a house with both, expect issues, and be prepared to give up low-voltage transformer halogens if you add dimmable LED circuits…

Pros
  • gives great shoe
Cons
  • May not work with all types of bulbs

Almond? More like Light Almond.

The switch itself seems to be okay, but "Almond" is easily as light as Lutron's "Light Almond" (I'd ordered both). At almost $50 a pop, it's too expensive to keep guessing, even though my other electrical fixtures all are considered an almond color.The built-in backlighting light was an unexpected surprise, though.

Pros
  • Lutron makes the best dimmers cant go wrong.
Cons
  • May not last as long as advertised

Easy install for my opinion

I have just installed the new switch for my LED lighting. The install was easy and the switch works well at this time. It's only been two days so I won't give it a 5 star. Time will tell.

Pros
  • Works at it's supposed to.
Cons
  • May emit a buzzing sound

great switch best in my review

easy to install, cheaper than you'll find at big box stores, dimmer switch works perfectly. I have it hooked up to some LED under-cabinet rope lighting.

Pros
  • Works perfectly. Looks good too.
Cons
  • May cause lights to emit a humming sound

Superb dimming for LED lights

I've tried several dimmers and this is the winner for dimming all varieties of LED bulbs including the newer filament style. Highly recommended and a good value. This dimmer is installed in my 42 unit courtyard building operating 24/7 on a 28 LED bulbs without a hiccup.

Pros
  • i should have bought several more since i have several in my home now.
Cons
  • It does NOT turn off the power. My led bulbs are partially lit.

Good choice when dimming a magnetic transformer.

This worked well with my LED tape lights when paired with a magnetic transformer. No flickering, humming or other issues. Looks great. works well.

Pros
  • No problems with product or delivery of product.
Cons
  • May interfere with other electronics

Locator Light Does Not Shine Through Opaque Switch

This item is described as having a locator light, so you can find the switch in the dark. The light is behind the paddle switch and is supposed to illuminate the switch with a soft glow. However, this unit has a paddle switch that is totally opaque. No light shines through it. You can see a small amount of light in the thin spaces, left and right, between the paddle switch and the surrounding bezel (photo). However, it is not sufficient light to enable someone to find the switch. You can barely

Pros
  • Very good product, and it worked as I had expected.
Cons
  • Limited warranty period

Hard to Find - my new review

This is a replacement part for another that failed in my house. Sent very quickly. As a matter of fact, I ordered it on a Saturday, and received it the following day. I am not kidding! Works Great!

Pros
  • Exactly as described. Shipped on time.
Cons
  • Bulky size

Give me a refund please!

Ordered this a month ago. I opened it today and this is what I found. Not what I ordered. I ordered a low voltage magnetic diva switch. Poor quality control.Thanks alot

Pros
  • Put in separate box, takes up a lot of room, nice magnetic dimmer though.
Cons
  • The screw bag was open, no screws. This item appears used! This is the second time this has happened!

Great for Green Creative LED bulbs

My house has several rooms lit by MR-16s controlled by Lutron Maestro MALV-600 dimmers. As the old incandescent MR-16s have burned out, I have been replacing them with Soraa high-CRI LEDs. These worked OK with my old dimmers - I got occasional flicker but they were very usable. I recently switched to Green Creative LED MR16s since their high-CRI bulbs were about 1/2 the price of Soraa. Unfortunately they did not work well with the Maestro dimmers - the lamps would shut off completely when the…

Pros
  • A+++ item as described fast shipping
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with certain lighting control systems

Very Satisfied best in my review

I paired this with an Evergreen Technologies ETD1260 - Strip Lighting Power Supply which requires a magnetic low-voltage dimmer such as this one. Works perfectly - dimming is very smooth through the whole range, with no flicker. Nice little bonus I didn't see mentioned is a subtle orange back-light for finding it in the dark. Very satisfied. Keep in mind this model uses wire leads instead of terminal posts, but it comes with wire nuts.

Pros
  • Really the only product to go with
Cons
  • Unintuitive button placement

Excellent dual switch

Excellent dual switch. Needed to reduce the number of gangs required to fit 3 switches and this fit the bill for switching and dimming 2 sets of LEDs. Set 1 are 7 6" recessed. Set are 3 pendants. The smooth on/off is a nice touch and makes for a nice transition. Dimmers offer decent range given the load in my configuration.

Pros
  • Successfully replaced one I already had installed.
Cons
  • May interfere with radio signals

Nice low voltage dimmer

I used this dimmer to control a single dedicated dimmable LED driver transformer on an under cabinet LED lighting project.This particular dimmer was recommended by the manufacturer of the LED driver. It worked very well. It runs cool and dims the LED strip down by 90% with (NO FLICKERING).

Pros
  • I have purchased 5 of these over two years. Very good product that will allow more LED loading
Cons
  • Prone to overheating

it works just fine. Do not use this dimmer for LED lights .

It may work well for incandescent lights. However, when used with my transformer powered LED lights which use less than about 75 watts, it causes very serious flickering except when set for full brightness. On the other hand, when used with my LED lights which use more than 100 watts, it works just fine.Do not use this dimmer for LED lights which require less than about 100 watts! Luton is aware of this limitation.

Pros
  • perfect for our need, under-cabinet LED low voltage lighting dimmer
Cons
  • May require professional installation

Hard to find brown dimmer switch!

We remodeled our kitchen and have a quartz back splash which is predominately brown. Looked all over for this style dimmer switch and could not find. Loved being able to order it online. It came in three days and it is exactly what we wanted.

Pros
  • A great price for its value!
Cons
  • High power consumption

Works fine, customer happy

Advertised as a "used piece" and it had been previously installed but was in nearly new condition. Works fine, customer happy!

Pros
  • worked perfectly
Cons
  • Limited performance in humid environments
