Will this dimmer work as an on-off switch to turn LED lights completly off or do I need a seperate switch for that?

I have used several of these, and you will find a "click off" sound after the lowest dim point on the switch. It is than turned off.

It does NOT come with a dimmer switch. The switch at the top of my lamp failed almost immediately after I put it together. I use the switch on the power cord to turn the lamp on and off.

While I have not used these with a dimmer switch, I see no reason why not. In effect the converter is just a conductor between the two different types of connectors.

my light switch was not a dimmer no. but neither was another fixture I purchased, and we switched out light switch and converted it to one no problem. just didn't try with this.

No it does not have a dimmer switch. Really isnt needed,it gives off soft light,much like a night light does. I use red bulbs in mine and never turn them off.

This is not a dimmer. It is a timer switch. It shuts the lights off after a certain number of minutes.

Hi Tom, That's actually my current setup. I used to have 1 dimmer and 2-regular non-dimmer switches and I replaced one of the non-dimmer switches with Honeywell timer switch. As long as each switches are independent to each other, it should not be an issue. Btw, I'm not a professional electrician so this response is just based on my current home setup.- Joel

You cannot use a standard dimmer switch for LED lighting and will need a basic lighting controller such as a Chauvet Obey 3 if you want to be able to dim them.

Yes, you can use a dimmer switch with this item. We recommend the Zoo Med Rheostat.

I have reg. bulbs with a dimmer on my lamp. My electrician said I would need a different dimmer switch to use with LED bulbs.

Hmm, I found this while running a search for dimmer switches! I'm curious if anyone knows if there is a similar switch made that also has a dimmer option included? I wasn't looking for something like this initially but love the idea!!

That would depend on your light switches and your light bulbs this has no switches in just wires so you will need a dimmer wall switch

I don't know if it is dimmable when I installed mine I put them on a single switch - full on or full off as for replacement bulbs it is very unlikely you'll ever need as they are LEDs

Correct, no Dimmer just on/off and a dimmer will not work with incandescent light, but with this it will!

I'm using the switch to control two sets of florescent lights with no trouble. It simply switches them on and off, there is no dimming function with the switch.

This is not a switch, it's a dimmer. This dimmer comes on silently yes, however if you need a switch instead, the switch does make a click, but the click is not really any louder than the click heard from a standard on/off switch.If you are controlling something that is not dimmable like a fluorescent, then this dimmer is not right and you should instead get the switch. Also I recommend getting the units that are Occupancy controlled versus vacancy as you will have more functionality options.

Yes, I have this Lutron dimming switch installed with another standard non-dimming 3-way switch. Dimming is controlled at the Lutron swtich then either switch can control on-off. The standard 3-way will be limited by the dimmer setting when used as the on switch.
