Dimmable Fluorescent Fittings

[Spudnik]

Anyone know of a supplier of 5 or 6ft dimmable fluorescent fittings complete?

I have a client that wants to use them around the tops of his kitchen cupboards.

Had a quick flick around on the net but cant find anything obvious.

i had the same problem. i once went to assess a student in student digs and the had flouris with pir`s built on them that auto dimmed in day light. great idea and saves a boat load of cash when there are lazy people or kids around. could not find them anywhere and the suppliers looked at me like i was daft when i asked for them.

This thread is nearly a year old. The guy having the kitchen done has probably already had it fitted and gone with the non dimmable T5 fittings as the dimmable ones are too chuffing expensive!
