I have a power source with no switch and I am hoping to install a dimming relay to control it, but I can’t seem to find one, and I don’t see this answer in any of the existing threads from previously. Does one exist yet? Can anyone point me toward it?
I have seen the on/off relays, and I may just have to give up dimming and go with that, but I wanted to see if anything had come out that might be new or if someone knows about something I can’t find.
Can you not use a dimmable zwave light switch? What is power (max voltage/amperage)of the device?
EDIT
As I thinking about it you may have DC voltage you want to dim. You likely want to look at the zwave controllers for LED ligthing. Those may work
No, there is no easy way to add a switch, which is why I wanted a relay. I am putting a light fixture in.
You shouldn’t use the word “relay” as a relay has only on and off states, no in-between as a dimmer. What you want is a Z-wave dimming module, like these Z-Wave - Modules - Dimmers Smart Home Products in stock from Vesternet
Ah, thank you! It could be that including “relay” in my searching was counterproductive.
I had actually looked at the Aeotec Nano, and I think what threw me is that it’s designed to control an existing switch. I won’t have a switch, but there’s effectively no difference between having a switch that is always on, and not having a switch.
