I have just got an electrician to rewire my new home and install halogen low voltage lights in the dining and living rooms (4x 50w in each room).
Also, 2 uplighters as side wall lights (100w each).
My problems started when I tried to install a push on 3 way dimmer to control the living room 4 low voltage lights and the 2 side wall lights. The dimmers work but the range is not that good. Once I push them on the lights come on but once I try to dim the lights it decreases quickly so not using the full range of the dimmer leaving me turning it past half way with nothing happening.
I have a single dimmer for the dining room controlling 4 identical lights and it works fine. All 4 sets have transformers installed and have swapped the 3 way dimmer just in case the dimmer was faulty.
I am considering installing a 2 way dimmer and a 1 way dimmer to see if the problem goes away or makes no difference at all. The dimmer states that it has a range of 60 - 400w
Can anyone help........PLEASE????
