Product Information

Full details

This Lieber Intelligent Dimmer in Brushed Chrome is designed for homeowners looking to add modern, efficient lighting control to their spaces. Its key benefit is providing smooth dimming for compatible LED bulbs, offering ambiance and energy savings. A caveat is its specific requirement for dimmable LED bulbs; standard LEDs or other bulb types may not function correctly. The dimmer features a screwless brushed finish that resists fingerprints and reflections, a 100W LED (250W Halogen) capacity, and a 1-gang, 2-way intelligent trailing edge design.

FAQs

What type of bulbs can I use with this dimmer?

You must use dimmable LED bulbs. The dimmer is rated for 100W LED (equivalent to 250W Halogen). Non-dimmable LEDs or other bulb types will not work correctly and may damage the dimmer.

Is this dimmer compatible with my existing 2-way switching setup?

Yes, this is a 1-gang, 2-way dimmer, meaning it can be used in a circuit where the light is controlled from two different locations, provided it is wired correctly.

How do I clean the brushed chrome finish?

Use a soft, dry cloth for routine cleaning. For smudges, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What are the dimensions of the dimmer plate?

The dimmer plate measures 86mm x 86mm with a depth of 2.95mm.

Can I use this dimmer with standard halogen bulbs?

While it has a 250W Halogen equivalent rating, it is primarily designed for LED bulbs. If using halogen, ensure the total wattage does not exceed 250W and that your wiring is suitable.

What does 'trailing edge' mean for dimming?

Trailing edge (or reverse phase) dimming is a modern dimming technology that is generally more compatible with LED and CFL loads, providing smoother dimming than older leading-edge systems.

What is the benefit of the screwless design?

The screwless design provides a cleaner, more modern look by hiding the screws that typically attach the faceplate to the wall. It also makes cleaning easier.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer flickers or buzzes

Ensure you are using dimmable LED bulbs. Check that the total wattage of the bulbs is within the dimmer's range (100W LED max). The issue might be with the LED bulb itself; try a different compatible brand.

Light does not turn on or off

Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct for a 2-way circuit. Check the circuit breaker or fuse for the lighting circuit. Ensure the bulb is functional.

Dimmer does not dim smoothly

Confirm that the LED bulbs are rated as dimmable and are compatible with trailing edge dimmers. Some LED bulbs have poor dimming performance regardless of the dimmer used.

Dimmer gets warm during use

Some warmth is normal, especially under full load. If it becomes excessively hot, ensure the load does not exceed the 100W LED capacity and that the wiring is correct. Consider if ventilation around the switch is adequate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces fingerprints and reflections with its brushed finish.
  • Offers smooth dimming for compatible LED bulbs.
  • Modern, screwless aesthetic enhances room decor.
  • Supports a good load capacity for LED lighting.
  • Facilitates multi-location control with 2-way functionality.

Cons

  • Strictly requires dimmable LED bulbs; incompatible with non-dimmable LEDs or other bulb types.
  • Trailing edge technology might not be compatible with all LED drivers.
  • Single gang design means it controls only one light circuit per unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This dimmer switch is designed to replace a standard light switch. Ensure power is turned off at the mains before attempting installation. Connect the wires according to the 2-way switching diagram, typically involving a live wire, a switched live, and two connecting wires for the 2-way function. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with electrical wiring.

Compatibility: This dimmer is specifically designed for dimmable LED bulbs with a load capacity of up to 100W (equivalent to 250W Halogen). It uses trailing edge (reverse phase) dimming technology. It is *not* compatible with non-dimmable LEDs, incandescent bulbs, halogen bulbs (unless using the halogen equivalent wattage), or other types of lighting not explicitly stated as dimmable LED.

Care: Clean the surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the brushed finish. The screwless design allows for easy cleaning around the plate.
