Thanks Ben.

So is one type in any way "better" than the other for standard
incandescent=
& mains halogens? - the trailing edge ones are about 8-10% cheaper, so
I g=
uess I'll go with those unless there's some advantage to the leading edge
t=
ype that's worth paying an extra =A320 for?

Hi paul,

Trailing edge dimmers are used for electronic transformers,

Leading edge dimmers are used for iron core transformers,

Both can dim incandescent lamps.

I'm looking at my future CBUS expansion plans, & I'm going to need some
wireless kit for a couple of awkward places.

Looking at the switches, I see there both leading edge & trailing edge
dimmers available... - what's the difference, and how do I know which
type I should get? - These will be controlling bog standard incandescent
and mains halogen light fittings, no low voltage 12V stuff at all...

TIA

Paul G.
