Hello again everyone, long time no speak, hope everyone is well.

I recently fitted down lights for a customer and they asked for a dimmer switch to go with it, I fitted a varilight led dimmer which has a soft start  feature, apparently they don't really like this and asked if i could fit a "normal dimmer" as their old house had led bulbs with a normal dimmer and they were fine haha, any way my question is, can anyone recommend another led dimmer with instant start or can I just bung in a standard dimmer and leave them to it?

Kindest regards 

Bobby

 
I did lol I fitted a varilight v-pro led dimmer, but they don't like the soft start function, what I asked was do you know of a dimmer for LEDs without the soft start? 

Thanks

Yeah I've just looked it is programmable but you can't get rid of the soft start, you can change it from trailing edge to leading edge and you can adjust the minimum brightness as well. They like the screwless flat plate look so I'm limited.

 
Just buy any dimmer module and swap it for the existing, the hole in the middle will most likely be the same. I do it for grid dimmers where I am trying to match one in a multiple plate.
