Will this dimmer remember and retain its last setting?

Its a slide switch dimmer. No it will not remember its last setting. You just slide it to your preferred setting. Simple

No.The units I've purchased thru TangsFire, if you hold the switch "off" for just a second, it remembers the last setting. If you click it off quickly, it seems to turn on to the next setting. I have not been able to find these thu the Ultrfire website, and there is some differences in the beam from flashlight to flashlight. There is also a 3 mode available that did not remember the last setting so be sure you know what you are buying.

I have only had the unit for a couple of months - no problem with dimming - only use it a few minutes a day, tho.

The one I have does that and according to the information I have it is supposed to do that. Don't sweat it if its the older model. I don't believe the newer one dims automatically.

The timer will remember the time for up to 4 hours. However, it will still remember its settings---it only loses time.

Yes. It has several dimmer settings. I use it for reading and crotchet and usually on one of the lower settings. I might use the higher settings for precision detail work but the lower settings are great for reading!

The min/max wattage comment (by Scott) is spot on. My fixture had 3 dimmable LEDs and I had flickering. I swapped out one LED bulb for an incandescent to get above the min wattage. All flickering is gone. dimming works as expected.

It keeps the last used setting. If you power off with this setting then it will turn on with the same last setting. Hope this helps you. Good luck.

Depends how long you leave it on. If you leave it on all night, probably a couple of weeks. It gets dimmer as the batteries die.

Yes, James, the timer settings do remain in memory, however, if you are in need of a timer that lasts beyond a year I'd give it a pass.

The dimmer only saves the last percentage level that it was on. So if you set it to 50% and turn it off, it will return to 50% when you turn it back on. If you increase from 50% to 100% and then turn it off, it will not go to 50% when you turn it back on. These dimmers are meant for home automation scenes, so you can achieve the effect you are looking for by using a remote controller.

Depends on your touch. Once on and set to high, the dimmer reduces by holding the low switch. It doesn't click each reduced level.

No, The dimmer we received with ours will return to the "lights off" setting when power is removed and restored. You must press the "power on" button and reset the light level after power is disconnected. Also note the circuit (dimmer with red LED and transformer) draws about 1W when counter lights are off. We have 5, 12" sections and they draw about 13W total when on. You could use the Lightkiwi dimmable transformer with a dimmer switch on the wall, or you might be able to find a similar PWM control with a memory or fixed control knob to replace the Lightkiwi dimmer. The power button is a little hard to find mounted under the cabinet. The old florescent lights that these replaced were touch sensitive. We love the lights and they are bright enough that we often use the dimmer.

It doesn't remember the last brightness level. You have to toggle through the 3 brightness levels to turn it off.
