> a. Is there any problem using the LW10 with energy saving > light bulbs (dimming problems?) You cannot use LW10's to control energy saving or fluorescent bulbs as the switch uses the bulb as a return path (ground) and these bulbs do not conduct until they "strike". You also cannot dim these bulbs anyway. > b. Can you use an appliance module for dimming a lamp which > already has a built in dimmer switch (would you just flick > the built in dimmer to maximum and let the appliance module > control the dimming) No ... You can use it to turn the light On and Off and then use the dimmer to adjust the level... Phil
