Is this a low voltage dimmer?

According to Lutron's spec sheet it is not an LV dimmer: http://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/369613a.pdfI'd recommend calling their customer service - they are pretty good at helping you pick the right item for your application.Additionally, the company providing your lighting may have recommendations on specific models or types of dimmers they recommend or have tested. The folks I bought my LED system from did have specific dimmers that they had tested with their products, and which work great.

Low voltage? It operates on your standard household voltage of ~110 V. Do you mean low power? You can run up to 600W of incandescent bulbs or 150W of LED/CFL bulbs.

This dimmer is to be used with 110 -120 v only. Not sure if there is a dimmer for 12v, or low voltage.

I know it is a line voltage as I have it installed that way. Not sure if it can do low voltage

From the Specs on Amazon you can see that it is dimmable over the range of 8-18V either AC or DC. My application uses 9VDC. I would just try it.

Yes, and the dimmer works really well, smooth transition and very low to bright. Love this light, have bought two for the house, may buy another.

Yes, this item only has three wattage settings. Not fully incremental from off to high like a real dimmer.

I don't have it on a dimmable circuit. I haven't noticed that it stays dim after I turn it off.

Mine does not remember the last dimmer setting. It normally goes on about half of full power.

Don't know the technical details, but you won't have that problem with this one. You might even find it to be too much. I've read some people use light switch type dimmers to lower the power and I believe it.

No. I will basically give you an on/off for a light. Look for a light dimmer which regulates voltage.

I would assume you probably can wire a dimmer type of a switch to it that will work with the low-voltage lighting. The unit itself just has a light sensor which allows your low-voltage lights to come on and turn off automatically. If you purchase a dimmer switch, make sure it's for low-voltage outdoor lighting and is weather resistant if it is exposed to the outdoors. Also you may want to contact the manufacturer and ask them if a dimmer switch is something that would be safe to wire to the unit. Hope this helps. Good luck, Yuri

The Leviton switch has a fixed dimming range that is independent of the bulb. So it is what it is, sorry.

This is a dimmer. But it also acts as an on/off switch. So from the lowest setting it is off then the highest setting is 100% brightness. If it is in the middle, the power is 50%.

I have always used magnetic low voltage dimmers. That's what I was told and I have never tried a conventional dimmer. I would say no.

Yes the switch would be suitable for any low voltage ie(12 volt operation). The only major issue you may encounter is the depth of the switch. It is just as deep as any regular AC dimmer switch for comparison, and your RV or boat may not have the switch box depth to accommodate this. Also note you have to add up your wattages on the switched line of lights, it can only handle 72 watts, some of those halogen bulbs can be 50 watts. Over loading could be an issue, which would lead to a fire risk or failure of the switch.

Only with a 12v dimmer switch. The better the quality of the dimmer switch, the lower it will dim down. Most cheap dimmers only dim to about 30%. A good one -+- $100 will dim down to zero

Yes if you are using a incadescent lamp. I would recommend putting the dimmer on the 120v side as they are easy to come by. The 120v electronic (Triac/Diac) are inexpensive.

The dimmer has 7 different light settings. The lowest being completely off.

I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a 12-volt dimmer, but that's the answer if they exist. I'm not aware of any 12-volt LED's that come in less wattage than this one.
