### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Nice quality once you get it wired up
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2020*

The small form factor is nice and it the stem and metal knob have a quality look and feel. Once you have it installed, it works fine. Two issues with the installation. First the wires are incredibly fine, I think 24 guage (my 22 guage stripper couldn't strip it). This made it difficult to strip, but also to get a good crimp. Second, the wiring directions on the package don't work. Using three separate wires as for a normal switch led to the lights being on at a very low level even when off. On the Amazon product page there's an alternative "simplified" wiring diagram, which does work - the black wire is connected to the positive source, and the white and red are wired together to the lamps, and there's no connection to ground. Doesn't make sense to me, and I hope it's safe - at least the loads are low.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Expensive but works very well!
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2020*

My RV LED dinette lights were too bright, except when I am reading or doing puzzles. Otherwise I used to pull out the bulb from 1 of the 2 lights. I bought this switch and followed the 2-wire instructions and it works perfectly. Now I can dim the lights to watch TV and have them on bright to do puzzles. Winner!  Works very well with my LED bulbs, totally from off to full and lots of range in between. Perfect for my RV application.

### ⭐ 







  
  
    Wouldn't bother buying again
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2018*

Wired everything as per instructions.... didn't dim, just turned on and when turned off it went one degree darker and then shut off. Whole thing feels very cheap and fragile. I ended up just throwing away and going a whole different route. Don't bother buying this
