Will this work with LED lights or small load ? The Manufacturer site makes no mention of load requirement

This particular model is only supposed to work with incandescent bulbs. Mine worked fine with CFL's for couple of years and then it stopped working. Screen works fine but it doesn't turn the lights on anymore.

I am running about 240 watts of incandescant lighting on this timer and it hasn't failed. So I suppose that since LEDs use such a small amount of electricity there should be no issue whatsoever.

I have not used timer with led lights, I did use it with five strands of C bulb lights and it heated the timer. I generally replace switch with a regular light switch for the holidays, if that is what your doing.

I have a 60 inch sharp led that weighs 65 lbs. read my review and do like Matt said, should work fine.

I don't know the answer to your question. I'm holding a rollerball switch right here and I can tell you that the leads are integral and not very big (which means you can't run bigger wires to the switch). My guess is that you could control a 110 V load if the load wasn't too great. Nowadays lots of lights (CFLs) are just 9 watts or so, so you might have a light load. But I wouldn't do it unless I could find specs for the switch that indicate that it's OK. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. You could look for a switch out of a refrigerator because we KNOW that kind of switch is intended for 110V loads. I don't know the answer to your question.

Manufacturer's rating is 300W / 2.5A maximum load. It is *NOT* for high current applications. I use it for controlling exterior lights on a detached garage.Look here:http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/91WEInllQDS.pdf

I would check the amps you would be pushing through it. If those lights are all LED then you should be OK.

Should work fine. The switch doesn't carry any load. It just signals the receiver to open and close the circuit, so it is really the receiver that carries the load. And 65w isn't a large load for a light switch.

Most likely the wire will be fine considering the LEDs don't draw as much power as conventional lights.

Since you didn't describe the type of LED lights, it's hard to give you a good diagnosis. As others and I can attest, this does work with dimmable LED lights (mine are 2 PAR30s on a track). I will note that switches like this have a minimum load that's required. If you are using LED MR16s, 7 of them won't have enough load to work properly. On one setup, with just a single 15W LED, the light would not go off. I added a 20W halogen in the circuit and it works fine now.

because this is installed on the power wire feeding the bulb, it should be OK- BUT, it relies on the resistance of the bulbs. If you have LED lights, it will not work.

the circuity just demands that a load, a minimum load 40w must be present for it to work. Found out the hard way. Strange, even if it is in the off position the load must be present.

Not necessary, connecting these resistors will create proper load for your LED light to flash normal.

I used it for an emergency light that goes on when the power goes out. LED light bulbs use hardly any power compared to standard emergency light bulbs, so I guess it would work fine.

That sure is a good Question. I checked the product again and it does not state how many amps. I am going to use it with my LED light strip which only has a couple of amps but I would not use it for something bigger.

The label must have changed. Mine had +/- Load. I hooked up the +from the P/S to the +, the - from P/S and LED light (load) both connect to the - on the switch. The + from the LED to the Load. My assumption would be Line/Negative/Load. You should contact the seller to be sure. Good luck!

The CFL/LED designation means it will work with low watt lamps, regardless of the lamp base. There should be no problems.

one big concern is, a minimum wattage is required for proper operation - Lutron customer service puts there number right on the box and can get specific with you

Yes. That is correct. Mine has worked fine but I knew it was a cheap reducer and took a chance. One caution, it is only for light loads. Mine is just for low wattage lights
