Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The connection feels very solid, and the dimmer is very smooth. They're simple, relatively inexpensive and so easy to use. Inexpensive and super easy to install.



Cons

At the only point where they (very slightly) dim anything, they flicker so much that so you can't use them to actually dim anything. The off position still passes 5+ volts. The voltage adjustment is horrible.

Wiring to the board itself is 26awg on both - 15 strands of metric 1 copper - so that lowers the overall rating to 2. Wish they would change the title to show wattage instead of amps.

Quality


They worked well with the hitlights asin b005gl5r56 and asin b005gl5ug2 led light strips


My boyfriend thought they were easy to use and we love ourselves with the lighting

Competitiveness


As a bonus they sort of work with a 5v chain as well though they tend to randomly flicker a bit

    If it works like the ws2812 led protocol one conductor is power and the other is the digital signal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I’m not sure how the ground works


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So this thing is a digital dimmer meaning it will change the control signal and does not change the power supplied although the leds will pull less current when they get the signal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The pot couldn’t supply infinite resistance so even when “off” a bit of current leaks through so i left the original switch connected to my lite


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I ordered a nonremote dimmer because remotes have short battery life and far too soon the contact buttons stop working even with a new battery


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Only concern is that the unit is very large making concealing almost impossible


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They generally get heavyish use for a couple of years before breaking but electrically never fail


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Everything i try to connect has a different barrel size or inner connector size
