Hi

Im using two cieling lights off of on one dimmer unit (with two controls) the lights have 5x g4 12v max 20 watts and the unit is 60-250 watt
........ this could explain it would I need a dimmer thats under 20w
 
From what you describe you need a dimmer switch that is compatable with low voltage lighting .

If you take your ceiling light down there should be a transformer in the back of it ,there should be some information on this .
This would hopefully inform you if it is of a dimmerable variety as not all are.
