Re: Quantum board with a line going dim

It looks like it just provides 0-10V signal to the power supply and doesn't alter the current to the boards directly. I think a simple 100k ohm potentiometer set up would be better for this application. I didn't care much for those dimmers, had them (meijiu) swap em' out for normal potentiometers a...

If that's the case, I would advise extreme caution ...

The good news is they are sending me another board and I will find a better dimmer. The ends were cold soldered that is possible too th...

Re: Quantum board with a line going dim

They are sending me a board the dimmer is cheap and no good. I am also getting the price of the dimmer off of my next purchase. But I will look for better dimmers from here on in. it was 135 watts they use alot of power to run a dimmer.
