Anyone had any experience with the dimming of these?
They claim to be dimmable 0-100%, but after talking to some contractors and suppliers, apparently they only dim down to 80%

Brightgreen D900's or D1000's 13Aug 12, 2012 4:15 pm Hi Are you using a leading edge, trailing edge or universal dimmer? LEDs work best on trailing edge or universal dimmers.

They don't dim down to 0% brightness, but I'm not sure what is the need for 0% - you may as well just switch it off? My guesstimate is that they are dimming to around 15-20%. Can I ask how did you get these to work with the HPM push button dimmers - did you put a dummy load on the circuit? Brightgreen D900's or D1000's 17Aug 17, 2012 2:55 pm No idea to be honest, the sparky did it. Basically he's set up two way dimming, with these Hpm dimmers at each end of the room. Very happy with the result because I didn't think two way dimming was easy to implement. Re: Brightgreen D900's or D1000's 18Aug 28, 2012 10:19 am offshore Dude that reads like an advertorial. Are you involved with them? I think this was at me... Just a brightgreen fan after being made aware of them by a mate of mine who is an electrician. Had a bit of trouble after buying a light that was told was manufactured by Brightgreen but wasn't.

If a Clipsal dimmer is not compatible what is the best dimmer to suit the D900's? I think my electrician fitted clipsal dimmers and the yonly dim to about 50% as well |
