![]() ![]() So a 10w increase for every dimmer wired to the same light.If you wire it to only one channel and ask the other channels to be wireless 2way switches, your minimum wattage will always only be 10w so this will help when wanting to use lower wattage LED bulbs. We always recommend wiring as one way due to the fact that 1 wired dimmer minimum load is 10W, if you have another dimmer controlling the same light using 3 core then the minimum load will be increased to 20w. The unwired channels on the dimmer will just go from RED to BLUE but not do anything until automated. The spare channels on all of our dimmers can then be programmed to be wireless 2way switches by using the two way switching automation. Same applies to a 3 gang, if you have a 4 gang it will still fit in the same back box This means where you currently have a 1 gang dimmer you can fit a 2 gang dimmer and use the 2nd channel as a 2-way wireless switch. When you add the new smart series dimmer to the app all the channels will appear. (channel 1 is labelled as PRIMARY/Dimmer 1 on the back of the dimmers)Or If you have a neutral wire then non of the channels need to be connected with a load and can be programmed via the app. The way our dimmers work is when channel 1 is connected to dimmable bulbs, the remaining channels will automatically get power with no wires attached. ![]() For 2-way or multiway switching, we would ALWAYS recommend wiring as "1 way" and programming the other dimmers in different locations of the house to perform switching wirelessly - so no 3 core wiring needs to be attached between the dimmers. ![]()
