LED under cabinet lights

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi ALL

 

I was thinking about installing under cabinet lights, LED. I will be using a insteon switch non dimming with a insteon

 outlet. the switch will not be connected to the load. these LEDS are a strip that has a separate driver that will plug into the outlet. can I expect any problems

 

Thanks 

Jeff

I use many LED strips on insteon without issues

if you do use a dimmer switch just set the dim interval to the lowest level

If you don't want dimming or colour changing consider getting a plug-in motion sensor receptacle plug-in and have them come on as you approach the counter.

 

I purchased one for about $10 at Lowes in the US a few years back. They are not available in Canada and now I can't find them on the US online catalogue either.

Insteon dimmers, like most other HA dimmers use TRIACs. Even at full on with the shortest interval, TRIACs clip the waveform. If the non-dimmable load, dimmer device or both are not destroyed right off, then their life will be considerably shortened.
