will this kit work with a dimmer switch? assuming its wired into the ground before the black box?

I wired mine to the dashboard light circuit, which has a dimmer. I am using the same ground as that circuit as well. Dimming the dashboard lights does dim the LED kit too.

The dimmer switch won't work because the light have an inline convertor that controls the dimming. At least I don't think it would be recommended to use the dimmer switch with them.

I don't see why it wouldn't. It may not be able to dim but it should work at full power. Just connect it normally.

You really need a dimmer that is made for cfl and led bulbs. This one might work but it will flutter on low .

As far as I know that would be based on the bulbs you use, instead of the light fixture. I will read the box, but I'm almost certain you could put a dimmer switch on the light. Hope that is helpful. Thank you-Matt

mine work as dome light and map light independently . try flipping end to end and adjusting your dimmer switch.

No this will not work. It has a high and low, that is it. No dimmer as described in the description.

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

There should be no problem with a standard switch installed prior to the transformer as the dimmer switch is set between the transformer and the light fixture. The lights are beautiful, bright and energy efficient.

Nothing. Nothing in the wiring touches ground, and external to the bulb, all the wiring is AC, so it should work normally and not hurt anything.

There is one long car cable that attaches the foot controller to the dimmer box. I believe that is it...Every light fixture just plugs into the dimmer pack.

No. You should not install a dimmer switch on the z-wave dimmer (dimmer on dimmer). Instead install a regular toggle switch or a momentary (push button) switch to operate the dimmer.

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.

I grounded my switch to the box and it works perfectly. I don't have ground wires either. You do need a neutral wire.

This does not offer an option to wire into existing electrical switches or dimmers. I'm sure it could be done, if you know a few things about electrical. This system plugs into an existing outlet and uses a wired switch. It does not have a dimmer.

While I have not used these with a dimmer switch, I see no reason why not. In effect the converter is just a conductor between the two different types of connectors.
