touch dimmer

[r3richard]

I have wall sconces that are each turned on by a touch control dimmer inside the fixture. I would like to also control them by a wired in Instant on device. I want to keep the touch control dimmer function as it is a cleverly concealed thumbtack near the fixture. I have these sconces all over the house and want to control them individually and/or together. Can I just parallel the wired Instanton? Or would that blow the device when the touch pad provided the power? help please.

thanks

Not a real good idea.

I would think both the Insteon and Touch Controls could be damaged depending on each devices state.

Sorta what I thought too. Could I use the wired in Instanton device with the sensor wire--is the sensor wire sensitive enough to work just like the touch controls?
