Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent adjustable Dimmer Great dimmer with adjustment so that leds don’t extinguish on low setting. Good quality and value for money. Highly recommended.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Worked well for a while Purchased 3 of these switches, at first great. Almost a year now and the clicking mechanism has gone so you need to press the button a few times to get the light on. One now doesnt click at all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOOKS SO EXPENSIVE! It's ridiculous to think that such a small element in the room can make such a big difference! This switch transformed the room and made it look more modern and it looks way more expensive than what we paid for it! Very easy to install too.

Will this dimmer work with trailing edge led bulbs (7303V)?

Asked by: jollyjcm
Hi jollyjcm, This is a Leading Edge dimmer, so it is unlikely that specifically Trailing Edge dimmable lamps are going to behave themselves if controlled by it.

Triac dimmers

Are these triac dimmers? I need a dimmer to work with my 4 x 7 Watts Dimmable R63 LED Spotlight Bulbs and they are only compatible with triac dimmers.
Asked by: Ella123
Hi Ella132, Yes, all BG dimmers are Triac type dimmers (rather than purely resistive).

Why does this buzz?

I bought this switch to go with 3 dimmable LED spotlights and this and the lights buzz. Don’t understand as it’s specifically designed for this Buzzing gets worse if you try to dim!
Asked by: KlosDIY
Hi KlosDIY, Strictly speaking all dimmed circuits buzz, but it is normally outside of the range of human hearing in both volume and frequency. A strong audible buzzing is normally an indication of an inappropriate load, so either the dimmer is not set into LED mode (by turning the potentiometer on the rear fully anti-clockwise), the lighting is outside of the normal LED load range of 5-50W, or the lighting is designed specifically for Trailing Edge dimming where this is a Leading Edge type dimmer (so the method of dimming required is different).

will this work with LEDs?

Asked by: RetreatNorth
Hi RetreatNorth, The dimmer module which British General currently manufactures and uses has a potentiometer on the rear which, when turned fully anti-clockwise, will put the module into a 5-50W Leading Edge type LED dimming mode.

Can I get Matt black buttons for this

Asked by: Doitall2019
Hi Doitall2019, British General does not make any matt black dimmer knobs, so we cannot advise you where to find any for sale unfortunately.
