Sometimes WAY over 60hz!
Right you are, Rob. The topic drove me to do some reading. This website is pushing their specific brand product (that I have no knowledge of) but their site is informative as is the chart posted below (also from the website). http://www.xicato.com/technology/dimming-flicker

I installed a number of these dimmers on my 2018 Reflection 303RLS, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They start out on full power then then after about a 20 to 40 second delay, lights actually dim no matter where I leave the dimmer setting. It is like something inside the dimmer controller needs to be warm enough to kick in the correct resistance. Once the lights dim, I can move the controller to any setting and get the expected results and the lights maintain whatever level of intensity they are set to.

We have 3 dimmer switches. 1 for the inside lights and 1 for each of the awning lights. I had to split up the awning lights. They were wired to 1 switch from the factory.
Here are the dimmer switches I used https://www.amazon.com/Volt-Dimmer-L...for+led+lightsLast edited by 315RLTSinPA; 02-25-2019 at 04:14 PM.

we used that type installed successfully too for the porch and interior ceiling lights with no issues. We liked these for the switches outside of the main panel since they had a serrate slide for the dimmer function and matched the existing switches. I tried various combinations of wiring to the wires from the various existing switches and this was the only combination that worked, although did get the delay issue, although it seems to be related to the temperature. Still chilly here in Tucson so will see if this behavior goes away as temps rise.

Thanks for the link. Doing this is (still) on POW's "To Do" list. (Thanks?) Your install looks very well done. Like it came from the factory that way.
I'm going to move the front cap's LED power switch (and add a dimmer), too. The location of that switch on the Nautilus is goofy.Last edited by howson; 02-25-2019 at 05:58 PM.

I've been wanting to dim the lights for over a year!
Just ordered my dimmers.

I would think at some point the engineers at GD would catch on and install them as standard.
