Are there pre-made connectors to attach the Insteon 2457D2 plug-in lamp dimmer module(leading edge) and SMD5050 5m 300 LED strip(trailing edge)?

Pre-made connectors are not available. Also, the dimmer referenced does not appear to be compatible with this dimmable transformer.

The dimmer is fixed in the middle of a cable roughly about a foot in length with 2 permanent connections on each end. One end connects to your led lights (via a 6" adapter cable) and the other goes to the power adapter. Unless you can find an extension cable, you will have about a foot of play from the end of your light strip to where you can mount the dimmer switch.

I agree with Dylan. Just make sure you have purchased the connectors required to place the dimmer in the location you need it.

It really depends on what you want to plug the strips into but two choices that I bought to use to get the four wires out to use the three colors of leds are "HitLights LED PCB RGB LED Strip Any Angel Turn Connector, 4 Conductor, For SMD5050 or SMD 3528 RGB Color Changing LED Strip, Strip to Strip, 4 pcs " and "HitLights LED PCB Connector Box For 5050 SMD RGB Color Changing LED strip, Strip to Strip, 10 pcs " or you can just solder wires direct to the pads on the cut lines of the strips. And yes the driver itself would need to be cabable of dimming the leds or if you are simply are going to feed them with 12Volts then you can but a simple dimmer switch in-line with the common feed and dim the leds that way with no driver at all. I personally bought a controller from Custom Dynamics to make my LED strips strobe, dim, and change colors.

This works with any bulb that is dimmable. It does not have to be an Insteon bulb.

Here Mike is the item that you need to connect the two strips together. It is this >>> (LEDwholesalersTM LED RGB Strip Light Connector 4 Conductor 10 mm Wide Strip to Strip Jumper 2353 which is $2.69)Copy this link below and it will take you to the Amazon's item!>>> LEDwholesalersTM LED RGB Strip Light Connector 4 Conductor 10 mm Wide Strip to Strip Jumper 2353 <<< Good luck on this and be sure to keep the color wires the same on both strips!

I cannot find them so am unable to verify but i know standard 1mm headers will not work with the led strips. These pins are slightly smaller in diameter and slightly smaller in spacing. The combination might allow the pins to fit in the breadboard or arduino header, but the smaller diameter might not make contact inside. You might do better with something like:http://www.amazon.com/Uxcell-Gino-Splice-Connector-Strips/dp/B0058S1Z80/ref=pd_sim_hi_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1M3BQZBX8J2E8JYFEDA0 Or similar (disclaimer: i have no experience with the linked to product)

You can rather easily solder these together. There are defined split points along the length of the LED strip as well as at the end.

Yes. The LED strips are attached to the fixture at the time of manufacture.

These connectors work perfectly with the 8mm LED strips. Most importantly, make sure the + side of the LED strip is positioned beneath the metal clip on the RED wire. The LED strip is marked +/- so make sure the strip is aligned correctly inside the clips. If you're light strip doesn't light up when you slide the ends under the two metal clips, you may have to pull the strip out of the clips just a tad. Just work it in and out until you hit the sweet spot on the LED strip.

honestly, I had a big rookie mistake... I'd rather get LED strips/driver than this very expensive one... there's a bunch of LED strips online that work with dimmer switch.. Best thing is it's only going to cost you around $30 that has about 600LEDS.....

I didn't, I removed the inverter and plugged into this adapter. I just taped all to back of LED. Be careful to locate cable before taping. The tape will pull plastic out from under screen edge if try to re position.

After every 3 LED's there is a CUT (scissors) line, and right after that line are 2 round contact points. Solder your new wire leads to these. I found it best to TIN the contacts (because they're under the thin plastic coating) and the wires first, then solder them together. I also use RED wire on the side marked DC12V so I'll always know which is the (+) power side of the strip.

These are extension cables only. They extend the distance between rThe led light strips. They plug-in to the led strips if the strips have pinned end at both ends without soldering if your led strips have pinned then t they will work fine.

Matt, our bulbs are not insteon-compatible. After a ridiculous reply that I just noticed I have to mention that we use solid state power drivers which are indeed a new technology, not something of low quality as that "Mike" stated, and such power drivers are not compatible with Insteon. Seems like that "smart" guy knows more than we, who really designed the product. Our bulbs are the highest rated LED Bulbs on Amazon,fact that speaks for itself. But if you have insteon, I am sorry, our product is not compatible. If you have any other questions, we are always here to answer all of them!
