FAQ's
A: To get the best performance from your LED downlights, you may need several accessories:
- Bezels & trims: Available in different finishes (white, chrome, brushed steel and many more) for custom aesthetics.
- Dimmer switches: Ensure compatibility with dimmable LED downlights for smooth brightness control.
- LED drivers: Required for low-voltage downlights that need a constant current or voltage.

A: LED downlights require a trailing-edge dimmer switch to function properly. Traditional dimmers designed for halogen bulbs often can’t handle the low wattage of LEDs, leading to issues such as:
- Flickering or buzzing due to incompatible power regulation.
- Limited dimming range, where lights may not dim fully or switch off unexpectedly.
- Reduced lifespan of LED bulbs caused by incorrect electrical loads.
Upgrading to an LED-compatible dimmer switch ensures stable dimming performance and helps you achieve the perfect lighting atmosphere. Explore our range of dimmer switches to find the right match for your setup.
