V-Pro High Power LED Dimmers

Step up to the Next Level with Varilight V-Pro High Power LED Dimmers

Our market leading V-Pro LED dimmers are now better than ever with high power versions available across the range, which are designed for use with dimmable LEDs and each dimmer can dim up to 30 LEDs (maximum of 300W).

These new dimmers build on the success of our existing V-Pro series dimmers, which are now able to control up to 120W of LED lighting (Max. 10 lamps).

VARILIGHT High Power V-Pro Dimmers are available in the following formats in all our Decorative Finishes:

• 1-Gang Dimmers on a single faceplate

• 2- and 3-Gang Dimmers on twin faceplates (3-Gang Dimmers can also dim up to 30 LEDs but with a maximum load of 250W)

• PowerGrid Modules

We are also able to create Bespoke items to your specification. Click here for more information.

Our V-Pro series comprises programmable intelligent dimmers with a choice of dimming modes for the widest compatibility with LED lighting. All V-Pro dimmers offer superior dimming technology to deliver the best possible dimming performance for a given load. To enhance compatibility with the ever-increasing range of lighting options now available to customers, V-Pro dimmers are programmable to offer a choice of 3 dimming modes. In addition, users can set the minimum load level for the dimmer to optimise the dimming range of a particular lighting load. You can view the programming instructions on the product leaflet. These are available on our website. We are also able to create Bespoke items to your specification. Click here for more information. 

V-Pro high power LED dimmers offer a professional dimming performance with premium features such as silent operation and voltage stabilisation for superior control of LED lighting loads. V-Pro dimmers are extremely versatile and are suitable for dimmable LED lighting requiring either “trailing-edge” or “leading-edge” control. 

V-Pro Dimmers are widely recommended by manufacturers of LED lighting and are supplied with a 10 year guarantee.

Dimmers For Larger LED Loads

V-Com Series Dimmers - For Larger LED Loads  With cost savings and energy efficiency driving architects to specify LED lighting solutions in both commercial and larger residential installations, the demand for dimmers capable of delivering a stable dimming performance for larger LED loads is increasing.  Our V-Com series dimmers have been developed for applications where there is a need to control large LED lighting loads, with options up to 180W (max. 20 LEDs), 220W (max. 26 LEDs), 400W (max. 40 LEDs) and 600W (max. 60 LEDs). V-Com series dimmers are available in all our decorative finishes

The V-Com dimmer series utilises new patented technology, developed by Varilight's technical team, to enable larger dimmable LED loads to be controlled across an impressive minimum to maximum brightness range without flicker. Users can set the minimum load level for the dimmer to optimise the dimming range of a particular lighting load while a choice of 3 dimming modes widens compatibility of more challenging loads.

New Advice for Dimming Halogen Lighting

With the current focus on LED lighting, it's easy to forget that millions of halogen lamps are still sold each year in the UK and their use remains widespread. Although halogen lamps are offered at low prices, there is a hidden cost from relatively high failure rates. 

Halogen lamp failures often occur when they are switched on rapidly by a conventional on/off switch but this issue can be overcome by using soft‐start dimmers. Soft-start dimmer switches gently increase the power supplied to a lamp when the dimmer is first turned on, allowing the lamp to warm up gradually, reducing failures caused by stress on halogen lamps when they are switched on. 

So, for the best results with halogen lighting, choose our V-Plus series intelligent dimmers which feature soft-start to regulate the power supplied when the dimmer is first switched on. V-Plus dimmers are suitable for both 1- and 2-way circuits. In a 2-way circuit the dimmer is used in conjunction with a regular switch but the soft‐start feature of the dimmer still regulates the power when the switch is used to turn on the lights. 

For large halogen loads, a new 1000 watt V-Plus dimmer is being added to our range. In white plastic, for example, the part number is IQP1001W. It is recommended that this dimmer is used in place of the HQ9W dimmer for halogen lighting. 

 All our touch and remote control dimmer series feature soft start and so are also suitable for halogen loads in 1-way and 2‐ or multi‐way circuits in conjunction with dimming slaves.

For 1-way circuits our V-Dim series rotary dimmers offer a budget solution for halogen lamps. Similar life‐prolonging benefits are achieved because rotary dimmers switch on at their lowest setting. This, in effect, creates a manual soft‐start for 1‐way circuits and so a new TQR1001W rotary dimmer rated at 1000 watt is being introduced to the V-Dim series.
