LED dimming problem?? Best solution please

Back from the dead thread?

Anyway I've used the TLC LEDlite dimmers (which are varilight) on GE and LED hut lamps and they work nicely other than they won't switch on at lowest dimmed level straight away. Might work better with more than 3 lamps on the switch but I've tested them with just a single 3w lamp and they work perfect

Screwfix now stock the varilight trailing edge dimmers (Varilight Trailing Edge Push Dimmer 1G 1/2W 400W/VA | Screwfix.com), work a treat!

Another vote for Varilight dimmers.
We have used these with no issues aprt from the fact we often find that it is not possible to dim down to 10%

Have had major problems dimming Haler EVO LED 7. Drivers going on a regular basis. Was advised by Halers to rate the fittings as if they were 50W dichroics and to use any dimmer. Halers has now been taken over by Collingwood and their new stance is that they will only reccomend the Richmond Grid 500 dimmer which has an adjustment dial on the side for low loads. Since replacing the said dimmers 6 weeks ish ago i have had no drivers faliures. I am fitting 60 JCC fireguard LED7 dimmable fittings on the job i am currently on and will be using these dimmers.
Hope this helps and good luck.
