Dimmer Timer Combination Switches

One of the questions we get asked when installing LED lighting for our customers is, is it possible to have a dimmer light switch that works off a timer? We have seen different scenarios when this can be beneficial, even in commercial applications such as a car park needing to dim its lights during the night to save on electricity. We’ve therefore put together a list of some Dimmer Timer Combination Switches that you might find useful.

You can buy dimmer timer combination switches from manufacturers such as Leviton and Lutron HomeWorks in the United States of America and Clipsal in Australia. These switches can be useful for such applications as dimming LED lights or a chandelier based on a particular time of the day. See below for a list of products you might find useful.
