PRODUCT REVIEW
FilmGrade™ Flicker-Free LED Dimmer
★★★★
Flicker free - exactly as promised
I purchased this dimmer plus the FilmGrade 24V DC power supply, to drive 27 feet of blue LED light strip in my home theater, replacing a standard PWM dimmer which created visible flicker. It worked as advertised; the combination is very stable and reliable, and flicker is completely eliminated. Both this and the power supply are top-quality products. Only minor quibbles keep me from giving 5 stars: The dimming dial is a bit small (for an $80 product) and hard to get exactly right, and I would have liked to have more control at the bottom end of the dimming levels ... I'd say it's more of a 2%-100% dimmer, than 0%-100%. Sure, that's really good, but the brightness level mapping in their SmoothDim could have gone even a little further. Or, perhaps the trouble is with the power supply, but either way I bought the pair from Waveform Lighting hoping to have complete control at super-dim levels. Nevertheless, I would still buy it again, this is the only product I found that promised to give both flicker-free results and better control over dimming levels."
