1. Which dimmers should I use?
We recommend LED dimmers with low range adjuster. This would allow you to set the lowest possible level before the fixtures start to flicker of shut off. This setting would also depend on the number of fixtures installed and the local line voltage. You can download the compatible dimmer list from here.
We also have 0-10V dimmable drivers as option for most models.
2. How many fixtures can I install per dimmer?
This depends on the dimmer load rating. Divide the dimmer rating by the power usage of the model and to be safe use up to 80% of the dimmer capacity. Example: for a CL dimmer rated for 150W LED load you can install maximum of 20 (recommended 16) of our 7.5W model LL3G.
3. There is a flashing when I turn on my Lutron Caseta switch connected to Lotus LED model LB4R. How could I fix this?
Please install the minimum load capacitor from Lutron anywhere in the circuit:
4. How could I make a Caseta Pro with Pico and 3-way switch work together?
Q:
Hello,
I am an electrical contractor in the Toronto area and I use your LED flat panel pot lights exclusively. I also use Lutron dimmers in 90% of my work. I have just installed approx. 75 of the LL3G-30K-WH lights through out a condo. Most of these lights are being operated by the Lutron Diva DVCL153PH dimmer and have no problem. I have seven of these lights that are being operated by a Lutron Caseta PD-10NXD Dimmer and wireless Pico remote. Both of these dimmers mentioned above are listed in your dimmer compatibility list for these lights.
Here is the problem, this caseta pro dimmer works the lights perfectly and also with the pico pro remote, except when you introduce a wired mechanical three-way switch. As soon as that is introduced into the circuit the dimmer will have two of its indicator lights (top and 2nd from bottom) flash constantly and none of the lights will work. I went over the connections several times to make sure they were proper, but to no avail. I have also tried a different PD-10NXD outcome. I contacted Lutron’s support line and was told that they do not suggest using your product with their dimmers??
Any help would be much appreciated.
