Please see TTCs post! ..... :lol:

Unless you use a master and slave dimmer which is dimmable from both ends of a 2 way circuit......

Over to you Krishane... :lol:

There it is Tim.....the answer for the whole house! :lol:

And with a lamp that has a notoriously short life you'll be up that ladder every couple of weeks! :D

Agile The quality branded GU10 (osram,philips etc..) have a fuseable link already built in..... Like I said..they'll fail just as much but at least your dimmer will be protected! Its those nasty far eastern GU10s that too many people are willing to sell you that will cause you problems.

When they fail....which they will with alarming regularity....they can be quite 'spiky' and this can destroy any dimmer you may be using. If you really feel the need to use a GU10....make sure you are not tempted by small brand chinese sh##te....stick with the major players (osram,GE,philips...

You lever the face plate off with a screwdriver.....the darker coloured lugs above the left screw and below the right screw (as you view your pic) should be the holding points...overly engineered but thats what you can get when you're paying far eastern wages... :lol:

Just to add my twopenneth....Megaman 'dimmable' GU10s are not very good... The claim that they are 'fully dimmable' is highly dubious and megaman themselves ask you to leave them for at least a minute to warm up before you attempt any crazy dimming manouvre! :roll:

While you're at TLC, ask them for a Varilight low load dimmer..... designed with single dimmable CFLs in mind but should be fine for your slightly strange request.... :)

http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Lighting_Menu_Index/Lamps_and_Tubes_Index/Dimmable_CFL/index.html Mmmmm..that much.

The CFL should be designed to be dimmed by an ordinary dimmer not the other way round....

What doesn't?

What size lamp fitting have you got?

But Varilight don't suggest using that many transformers on a 'standard' dimmer......I think the maximum is 5 and even then they suggest quality electronic transformers! But I know you don't type without thinking BAS so i'm just clarifying that your comments were directed at the seller of the...

Going back to the OP......2 gang intermediates are available as a standard product but 3 gang will need to be in a grid.....
