The dimensions as listed in the product description are the correct ones we received from the manufacturer: 32 1/2" H x 13 2/5" W x 20 1/4" D.

Sorry for the late response! Yes, please know the 8w out put is correct, and more accurately it is 8w*2, each channel is 8w. Hope this helps.

Usually this is because your dimmer isn't rated high enough wattage..... check the watts on the light and multiply by three..... go to the electrical supply house and they can get u a dimmer that will work with them

These people are WRONG. Check out the motherboard on your machine. There ARE desktops, particularly all-in-one desktops which do require SO-DIMM modules.

My best advice would be to go to Lowes or Home Depot and check if the size/plug are the same.Do keep in mind though that, if you have dimmers, they have to be LED compatible dimmers otherwise you may be able to mount 1 or 2 before they start 'flickering' and you're living in a constant 'disco'....

Yes! I just got mine today and it's even dimmer than the dim one that came with the tank setup that I was trying to replace. Extremely disappointing, after so many great reviews. :(

In all honesty, the default settings on this guy were pretty amazing. I did mess with the brightness a bit, but other then that I left it alone. I recommend you play around with the settings as the previous comment said. Everythings going to be different according to your tastes. You can also google/youtube the monitor settings as well. People usually post their settings there.

It is working fine for me. I have it in the dinning room running about 9 LED bulbs. 8 3.5 watts and one 12.5 watts. Works great. Used this to replace an X10 dimmer that was nothing but problems. Make sure you have a load and a nuteral in your switch box. You will use 3 wires to hook this up. The nuteral is going to connect to the lamp, the dimmer and the feed. Your load is going to connect to the dimmer. Your line is going to connect to the dimmer. Think of this dimmer as an appliance with a light connected to it. Comes with great instructions.

That's how I have mine set up; in line with a dimmer. It works well and has for the past six months or so. I'm not aware that you need a power supply that is specifically built for "dimming". As far as I know, any power supply will work as long as it outputs the correct voltage.

Two things about dimming. My dimmer was not compatible. Check the Philips list of ones that work perfectly. In spite of not being compatible they would dim way down. I dimmed the hall lights so our Video room would not have a glare from them. My guess would be over 80 dim. Not as good as old fashioned dimmers on a dinning room chandelier with incandescent lights but fairly close. Also be sure you have enough lights to meet the lowest wattage needed for the dimmer. Sounds complex but it isn't really. If you would like the PDF file with all the dimmers that work email me. I lost the site but have the list jhsnowden@ev1.net

Well, I am using 4 UltraLED 14W bulbs in one single fixture, and I am using the existing dimmer that I was using before whe I had 4 regular incandescent 60W bulbs. Seems to work fine, except that I can only dim the lights about 40%, after which the bulbs begin to flicker and the go off. Wish I could dim them more. Maybe I should be using a more compatible dimmer.

As long as you start it in regular mode high it won't dim. I'm only dim if started in dimming mode (straight up and down)

Sorry, I didn't play around with the adjustments (don't even know how to do them). I'm happy with the levels and don't recall how bright it was before. Love how well it dims my led cans.

Check to see if you turned the nob down to 750 or 500 on the side there dimmable ballasts

I have 6 dims of all the same kind and model on my nvidea motherboard with an i7 first generation. I would say check you motherboard specs that should say if it would take it. Sorry this may not be much help. But if your motherboard takes it why should it not work.

I have several of these units and have had no problems. I suggest you use a voltmeter to measure both the input voltage (should be about 12V) and the output voltage (voltage should go from about 0V to 12V as you adjust the knob from full dim to full bright. If no input voltage, check the power supply. If input voltage OK, but no output voltage, first check that you LEDs are working by connecting directly to the 12V power supply; If LEDs lite OK, dimmer is bad.
