Will this dimmer work if I cut off the jacks on each end and directly wire it in to the electrical wire?

Yes.....but be CAREFUL that you keep the polarity correct....(+ to +) (- to -) if you want to know how to know which is witch ......The plug with the shinny end..(the tip) the shinny part, the outside is (-) the inside is (+) .....I hope this helps...don't be afraid to ask....JIM

Yes, assuming the "electric wire" is low voltage and the same as the dimmer.

yes.....as long as it is a regular on/off switch. Dimmer switches are tricky. They must be approved to use with a specific type of LED approved by the LED's manufacturer

This is a 12 volt. Switch, if your item is 12 VDC & drAws less than 2amps it should work. If your lite is more than the 2amps get a dimmer from electric outlet store. Van

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.

No problem working with a dimmer. I love the light but will caution they have a disappointingly short life for the price.

Are you using this for LED tape light? The dimmer is rated for 12 volts. If you hook it up to a power source with a voltage greater than 12 volts the switch may work for awhile, but will eventually get fried.

That would be a question for Lutron. Depends I guess on the amount of electricity running through it and I have no idea what the limits of this dimmer switch are.

The detailed specs list this as a "dimmable" item, so if you have a dimming switch installed, that should do the trick ...

I don't think that will work. It is a regulated power supply, so it will try to keep a constant output voltage even if the input drops. you need a 12v dc dimmer.

Only if you have it hard wired to a dimmer switch. Thanks and have a great day.

You are correct. This dimmer needs 12V input and will output 12V. It only can work with low voltage lights.

I'm not sure. It won't work the 3-way bulb like the lamp is designed, but it should still work as a dimmer with whatever bulb is in the 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.

Yes this can be connected to any domestic electrical switch however the dimmer needs to be for led lights. This isn't a problem as these are readily available at any Home Depot etc. you might be lucky and find that your existing dimmer works. Beware !!!!!! Once you have installed one of these set of lights you will become absolutely addicted and you will want to do the whole house.

Yes. Mine is on a dimmer and it works just fine. I love this light and strongly recommend it.

Mine is wired through a dimmer in the wall switch. The dimmer worked with the rope lights that I replaced with these LED's, but does NOT work with these lights.

Don't know. Picked up a generic leviton paddle dimmer from my local hardware store and they work well with that.
