Hi Gareth
I think the wireless Saturns come in either a 1 channel or 2
channel dimmer.....not sure how noisy they are ....

Those DLT units look a bit nasty TBH. Could be different in the flesh of
course.

So tell me, if you were to use Wireless Saturn controllers, you dont need
a dimmer module yes ? The switch is powered locally and the dimming is
done there instead of at the DIN rail unit ?

If so, wonder how noisy it is...

Arni,

Thanks for this feedback. How doe the DLT compare to the ordinary
Saturn? Are they both easy to use? (For non-technical people!!)
Which type of PIR did you order?
How long did parts take to arrive?

Thanks,

Martin
