it is said to turn the light on or off, but I confuse when reading "the dimmer". I just only use it to turn on or off the 12 volt light. Please

I had the same problem,to dim,just keep hold the up or down button till you reach the amount of light you like.

With the fob supplied it has a power button that should allow for the light to be turned on and off, in addition there are up and down buttons that should control the brightness of the light. However the unit I received did not work in any state, if you purchase this unit good luck because the unit I received was useless.

The switch turns power on/off, but the pull string is how you turn the light on once the power is switched on. There are three levels, so one pull gets you the brightest light, 2 pulls the middle setting, 3 the dimmest setting, and the 4th pull turns it back off.

The lamp needs to be powered up to be controlled by the dimmer...so if it is in full on mode, the dimmer will switch and control that..if the lamp is switched to medium then the dimmer will control that... It should work.

Yes, you can use it on a lamp that has an on/off switch. The clean way to do it is to replace the existing switch. That way, you are replacing the on/off with an on/off/dimmed switch. You could also just add the switch to the cord, but then you will have to make sure that both switches are in the on position for it to turn on (this dimmer could be dimmed for it to work, but the other switch would have to be on).

Yes, this dimmer dims the lights. However, you need to know that whenever you turn on the lights, they initially come on bright regardless of the setting when lasst turnrd off.

The dimmer has a way of lowering the minimum brightness setting. If you read the instructions, it is under the "Setting Minimum Light Level (Programming mode)" in the "Operation" section. That said, when I tried doing it, it didn't bring the brightness level down below the default setting. So, maybe you can bring it up, but not down further than the default. We ended up putting lower lumen bulbs in one room where I wanted the minimum brightness to be lower.

No. You should not install a dimmer switch on the z-wave dimmer (dimmer on dimmer). Instead install a regular toggle switch or a momentary (push button) switch to operate the dimmer.

First check to see if the dimmer is turned on. It is possible that the bulb you bought is broke. Try another one first. Thanks

Dimming works great, IF it turns on. And whether or not it turns on is a crap shoot. Sometimes it does turn on, sometimes, no matter what I do, it will NOT turn on. And, conversely, sometimes it won't turn off! I have even tried wetting my finger first to see if that helps (like I occasionally have to do with my smart phone), but it has no effect. If they had just put a regular toggle switch on there, this problem would not exist.

We put a dimmer switch (a toggle on wall) and use chain in the light for switching the fan speed. It works great. Of course, we had three wires running to the fan/light - a black, a red, and the white. We put the light on the red,and put dimmer in series with it, while the black wire is always hot (ie, no dimmer in the circuit) so the fan is "un-dimmer". You can install a fan/light dimmer remote device, but our light is in a guest room and we thought the remote might get lost (too many grand kids etc visiting).

If you use the dimmable switch, this may be the case. If so, change the switch to the ON/OFF one.

not sure what dimmer option you are referring to. the control has 3 settings that were included. I actually leave mine on the dimmest setting at all times. love these lights and would definately buy again.

Yes, the wall switch will turn the led lights on and off and then the dimmer can be used just for dimming. That being said the dimmer has to be wired between the light switch and the led lights.

Its a slide switch dimmer. No it will not remember its last setting. You just slide it to your preferred setting. Simple

The light switch turns on/off the fan's light only. It is not a dimmer switch.

The switch is only On/Off, and is a stepper switch, meaning it's intended to be placed on the floor to be toggled by pressing with your foot. Again, the lamp does NOT come with a dimmer function. Otherwise it is an excellent lamp. I've had no trouble with mine since it arrived and it still looks great. I hope this helps.

Hi There,I wish I could answer you but my application does not make use of a dimmer just a standard on/off switch. Based on my experience with LED technology I would only trust the manufacturer in the case GE to answer the question. When I ordered the bulb I spoke to GE tech support and they were very helpful and responsive. I hope this help you.Fred Thomas
