Product Information

Full details

This Soho Lighting Brushed Brass combo switch is for homeowners and electricians looking to integrate smart dimming capabilities with traditional light switching in a stylish, screwless design. Its key benefit is the flexibility of controlling two lighting circuits with dimmable LEDs or halogens, alongside a standard 2-way switch, all on one plate. A potential caveat is the need for separate switches for multi-location control, which must be purchased additionally.

FAQs

Can I use this dimmer with non-dimmable LED bulbs?

No, this dimmer is specifically designed for dimmable LED bulbs. Using non-dimmable bulbs may cause damage to the bulbs or the dimmer, or result in flickering.

What is the maximum load for LED bulbs?

The maximum load for dimmable LED bulbs across both dimmer circuits is 150W.

What is the maximum load for Halogen/Incandescent bulbs?

The maximum load for dimmable Halogen or Incandescent bulbs across both dimmer circuits is 300W.

How do I set up 2-way switching?

This unit includes one 2-way switch. For true 2-way control (controlling lights from two locations), you will need to purchase and wire an additional standard 2-way switch according to electrical regulations.

How do I switch between leading edge and trailing edge mode?

The mode can be switched using a simple button setup on the module. Refer to the module's specific instructions for the exact procedure.

What does 'soft-start' technology do?

Soft-start technology gradually increases the light level over 1-2 seconds when turned on or dimmed, which helps to prolong the life of your light bulbs and provides a smoother user experience.

Is installation difficult?

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician. While the screwless design and grid system simplify the aesthetic and component placement, correct electrical wiring is crucial for safety and functionality.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer not working

Ensure bulbs are dimmable and within the maximum wattage limit. Check wiring connections and ensure the dimmer mode (leading/trailing edge) is appropriate for your bulbs.

Light flickering

Verify that you are using dimmable bulbs. Try switching the dimmer mode (leading/trailing edge) or check for loose wiring connections.

2-Way switch not functioning correctly

Confirm that the additional 2-way switch is correctly wired in conjunction with this unit. Consult an electrician if unsure.

Overload protection activated

Reduce the total wattage of the connected bulbs below the maximum limit (150W for LED, 300W for Halogen/Incandescent). Check for short circuits.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines dimming and standard switching on a single plate for space-saving and aesthetic appeal.
  • LED and Halogen/Incandescent dimming compatibility with intelligent soft-start feature.
  • High level of electrical safety with overload protection and a self-recovering fuse.
  • Stylish brushed brass finish and screwless design suits modern interiors.
  • Flexible installation due to grid system components.

Cons

  • Requires separate purchase of standard switches for 2-way functionality.
  • Maximum load limits for LED and Halogen/Incandescent bulbs must be observed.
  • Dimming functionality is specific to dimmable bulbs only.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure power is switched off at the mains before installation.
  2. The switch utilizes a grid system, allowing for the placement of the two dimmer modules and the 2-way switch. Components are typically pushed onto a grid frame.
  3. For 2-way switching, a standard 2-way switch (purchased separately) must be wired correctly in conjunction with this unit.
  4. Consult a qualified electrician for correct wiring and installation.

Compatibility:

  • LEDs: Compatible with dimmable LED bulbs (max 150W total load across both dimmers).
  • Halogen/Incandescent: Compatible with dimmable Halogen or Incandescent bulbs (max 300W total load across both dimmers).
  • Switching: One 2-way light switch included; requires separate standard switches for multi-location control.
  • Wiring: Can operate in leading or trailing edge mode, selectable via button setup.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the brushed brass finish.
