The Varilight MHO is a really useful product that reduces the need to have a grid system. You can easily create your own type of grid system out of a dimmer switch. You remove a dimmer module from your existing dimmer and replace it with a dummy dimmer. It then matches your other switches and is a cheaper alternative than a grid system.

Hi, please can confirm the wiring configuration for these dummy dimmers? I will need some as intermediate switches. Can they be used in that way?
Question by: Dominic Welch on 7 Dec 2022, 05:44
No, this module isn't suitable for use as an intermediate switch. I've attached an instruction sheet to this listing which shows various wiring diagrams. It can do 1 way or 2 way.
