Is LED RV Interior Light Compatible With Dimmer Switch  

Question:

Do you offer or suggest a compatible black adjustable dimmer switch for the Command Electronics 328-K-1050Q9 lights? I need a suitable wall type light switch dimmer to add to my RV to control the brightness of two 328-K-1050Q9 lamps wired in parallel. The JR Products 12275 On/Off Light Switch With Dimmer – Black, is not recommended for LED lights. I have read that some pulse width modulated dimmers cause RV LED lights to buzz. The Command Electronics 328-K-1050Q9 lights can be dimmed without harm with suitable resistance as I have installed a high value resistor on the back of my bath light switch so that the bath light functions as a night light when switched off and it has not damaged the Command Electronics 328-K-1050Q9 over many months of continuous operation. Of course, a fixed DC resistance provides a smooth DC current flow to the bath light.

I reached out to a representative of Command Electronics who said the LED RV Interior Light # 328-K-1050Q9 is compatible with dimmer switches however there is not any specific type of dimmer which they say is recommended or needed for this light.

We do not carry dimmers so there are none that I can recommend from specific manufacturers and since Command Electronics did not say you needed one type specifically, so as long as the dimmer is LED compatible I don't anticipate you having any issues.
