Does the dimmer setting stay where you last set it to, or does it reset to full brightness when you come back in the room?

As long as power to the dimmer itself is not lost for a prolonged period of time, it stays where you set it and does not return to full brightness upon coming back into the room. There is also a "hard" on/off switch at the very bottom of the switch which can be pulled out so you can shut the light off and prevent it from coming on if you are changing a bulb or want it completely off for some reason.

yes we have noticed that the light will go dimmer on its own after it's been on for awhile. We have been using rechargeable batteries & everyday exchanging them & then the light is bright again.

When the headlamp is dimmed to a certain setting and then turned off, it will turn back on in full power until you dim again to the setting it was previously at. This is great question and we appreciate you sending this to us as I have sent this on to our production team to see what we can do for future models.

Yes, this dimmer dims the lights. However, you need to know that whenever you turn on the lights, they initially come on bright regardless of the setting when lasst turnrd off.

The lights actually work well with the dimmer. They will dim and brighten though the entire spectrum. But, when on the dimmest setting the lights will "creep" back up to about half brightness and then stop. I had blamed it on the dimmer switch that I got from HD. But it may be the lights themselves. That issue may be a problem inherent to LED lights (at least the current generation of them). I have not seen any other reviewers with this issue so it may just be the dimmer (or the installer) LOL. Even so, I'm thinking the pros out weigh the cons (economical, long lasting , bright and easy of install (I really like handy little spring clips that secure it to the ceiling =) ). Hope this helps.

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, it goes from off, gradually and incrementally, to very bright. The dimmer settings promote a more soft and yellow light and the brighter settings are more white. We love the lamp and have two of them and may buy another for our other house.

You can brighten or dim the light. If you dim it all the way it appears as if it is off.

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.

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

make sure you turn down the dimmer level located on the front of the metal box - I didn't notice this at first but there is a dial that can be shifted from "-" to "+" Once I turned it down, I discovered my LED lights dimmed down to almost nothing, which was my goal.

the dimmer consist of an up and down button that you hold until it's your desired brightness

I know this is a little old, but I just want to clarify that four of the previous answers are definitely incorrect (maybe the light was updated?... doubt it though). There are 2 modes. The default mode (what it goes back to after not being used for about 1 second from my testing) is full brightness mode. It does have a dim brightness mode that you can activate by double tapping the button before clicking it to lock it down.

yea i noticed that in the onset, Sometime even when i changed the brightness manually it would stay the same. I restarted my machine and some pending updates were installed i don't kno if that fixed it but it has not happened since.

The dimmer switch is on the tip at the end of the light, not at the base. That is also how you turn it off and on. Depending on how much you use the light depends on the life of the battery. I usually don't have to change mine very often. (once a month, maybe)

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

The setting stays the same until you change it with the remote. I set mine when I bought it and it is on a timer that comes on every night for several hours. It is nice to have the option I just love the smooth transition through all the colors best.
