Important things to consider
• Wattage ratings for the dimmers are per gang. This means that a total load
of 250W (incandescent) can be put on each circuit connected to each gang.
• LightwaveRF Dimmers utilise a tiny amount of power to drive the
electronics that operate the RF radio and dimming components. As a result,
it is normal to experience a 5-10% reduction in light output when using
incandescent lamps (bulbs). In the vast majority of cases, this should not be
noticeable as the drop is very small.
• ONLY dimmable lamps can be used even if the dimmers are used solely to
switch between the on and o
states without dimming. This is because the
technology used in an electronic dimmer is fundamentally di erent to that
of a simple on/o switch and requires compatible lamp technology.
• Electronic transformers can be used only if they are dimmable. Please
check carefully that the loading and lamp compatibility is appropriate.
