Hi, I need a switch that will turn on LED lights that I plan on installing in my cabinets.Will this switch work for that application ?

Yes this will. It comes with an adhesive back on both pieces to mount it. Or just use the screw holes. It has 2 ways to use it. It can turn on when they separate or turn off when they separate. Just don't over power them. They are only 12V.

They will, if there's not too many of them. They carry very low current. There made to sense an open or close.
1983972
Yes. I used it to turn on and off a LED light strip (the kind that come on the the 16' rolls).

I would say that would be a perfect application for it. Just hang in there if they "stick" on in the beginning. Mine did that but eventually began to work 100% correct, and I'm very happy.

Yes this switch works great for all LED Make sure it's set to CFI on top of switch

I use this switch in a gun safe, to power on the driver/dimmer for a LED strip when the door is opened. It will work fine for your closet also. Note that it should be used with a relay such as this one uxcell® 5 Pcs DC 12V Coil SPDT 5 Pin Mini Power Relays PCB Type HHC66A-1Z-12VDC

Julia P., this switch should work with any lights that are on the circuit. I did not have LED light bulbs attached, but this switch simply turns an existing circuit on and off. So whatever you had attached to the circuit before will work the same. Hope that helps.

Why would you think it had LED Lights? There is no power to the switch for such a thing. Does it work? Mine works just fine, it is just a simple switch ;-)

I do not know for sure if it would work. You have to keep in mind that the switch sees motion to the front. You might consider getting a motion scenting light bulb. Good luck...

Another thing you can do is have one of the lights an incandescent light bulb. The switch is looking for more power than the LED pulls. We did this in our kitchen remodel and works great, before putting the incandescent light in, the LEDs would strobe. We are awaiting the LED compatible model.

Yes. I hooked my led strip to it and it works like it should. The switch is very well built...I like it a lot.

Presumably, this will control LEDs. Check the Leviton site for newer models that specifically state they will work with LEDs.

Yes...I have added a dimmer switch to mine. Just be sure your get the correct dimmer switch. Not all dimmer switches will work with LED fixtures.

Yes, works great with CFL, which are what I'm using. I believe it shouldn't be a problem with LEDs as well. This switch is not a dimmer, it is 100% on or 100% off on a timer. My understanding is that some CFL and LED bulbs can not be dimmed which would be a problem if one were to use them on a dimmer switch.

I am not sure if it will work the way you want it to. I am using it as a dimmer switch for a lamp.

Not according to my electrician, at least not with the LED fixtures that I purchased to use with these switches. I had to use 'conventional' dimmer switches, which worked fine.

I have used these switches with cfls and LEDs they have worked fine. Switch have good glow and no issues from any type of lighting

Yes it will work with any dimmer switch. But for the same price as most dimmer switches you can get the Levittown 6674-pow universal led and cfl and incandescent from Amazon. It is a truly superior dimmer switch. For many reasons including that you can set a minimum light level so you know whether you lights are on or off. It has both a slide control and a on/off switch.

That is what i use it for, it lights a wine cabinet that when the door is opened and the two magnets are separated it lights and turns off again when the door is closed and the magnets return to their original position the light goes off. so far works great. hope that helps

I have no idea but it should as long as the switch is like the standard light switch. This only moves the switch lever up and down, it is not directly wired into any circuits.
