Hi,
I recently did a complete house refub, including entirely new electrical wiring and fuse box. Unfortunately the builders (who supplied their own electrician) turned out to be a bunch of cowboys.
They left about a month ago, and today I noticed something very strange in the first floor...
I have been given a tasty basement job in Fulham
The lighting is by a lighting designer
AV guy to cover lutron RA2 controls- me to 1st fix
Some of the lighting is spec'ed to be 0-10v
1) what is the advantage of 0-10v (as the wiring seems more invloved)- just smoother dimming?
2) is it a case...
New to the forum so apologies if the format of this is incorrect. I'm a DIY'er and thought it would be relatively easy to switch out a standard double gang socket that powers kitchen lights and external security light for a dimmable switch. I fitted a varilight V-Pro yesterday and replaced all...
I thought id post this on here rather than the lighting forum. I have a little project at work as part of a learning curve in lighting design.
I have some experience of Relux and plan to design the lighting on that. I have narrowed down the fittings to 2xJCC1361 (DSI).
The problem I have is im...
I need to install 2x 600x1200 led grid fittings into a small office.
The occupant needs to have the option of dimming the light levels because of the nature of her work.
IV found a couple of fittings but not sure how I source the correct dimming option. Domestically, anything I have installed...
First post, just looking for some advice if possible please.
I have a customer that would like their driveway lights to be operated by a PIR motion sensor. The lights are to fade up to maximum brightness, stay on for a predetermined amount of time and then fade to off.
Does anyone know of a...
Hi everyone
Fitted a Varilight v-pro dimmer switch, 400w 1 gang on 2 led downlights, luceco fire rated, 6 watts each.
When the light turns on, it’ll dim up and down but then turns itself off and to get it back on you have to switch it off and back on and the same happens.
Had this same...
Hello all
I am new here and I have been reading threads in this forum for sometime searching for someone who has the same problem as me but couldn't find a related post.
So the problem is when the AC is turned on and the compressor kicks the lights dim for a split second ( fluorescent, and...
Hi
I have 6 LED downloghters in my bathrrom. Their the Solo 10. Dimmable apparently. Their 10w each. Is there a way to dim them? Does a dimmable pull cord switch exist?
The fan is also connected to the lights of this makes a difference.
Thanks :)

Hi guys,
I am looking at having a outside light installed over a door, the light I am looking at uses a E27 bulb fitment which I am planning to use a LED replacement.

Hi, I have two of these under cabinet lighting kits:
I want to change out the on/off switch with one of these dimmers :
Safe to do so? output is only 12 volts.

and run in a new cable from the switch to another 3 downlights
the client wanted it controlled using a 2 gang dimmer when i left everything seemed to be working fine, got a phone call a...
Hi everyone,
I'm looking to put some LED strip lighting behind my bed (after redecorating). I have installed some warm white downlights in ceiling but want a small amount of mood lighting.
The strip light is coming from a fused spur, into the driver and then to the strip light. The only...
Hi,

Has anyone installed a Dimming VoltMaster 12V (VMD300/12EU) before? any info anyone has would be greatly appropriated as I have been asked to provide a quote for installing one.
My friend has a two gang dimmer it's the size that fits a 2 gang box also in brushed chrome they changed from a 250watt per dimmer to a 1500watt per dimmer as the first one wasn't dimming the lights
One side does two wall lights with 8 x 3 watt dimmable lamps
The other side does a massive...
Hi chaps,
Does anyone know if it is possible to use a daylight dimming sensor on a basic switch dim config or does it need to be DALI?
I've recently taken over a job from another spark, and the spec states to incorporate daylight sensing as well as manual dimming via a retractive switch into...
