Single pole LED dimmer switch

[JohnKal]

Maybe it's just me, but I can't seem to locate a single pole LED toggle dimmer switch. Everything I'm finding is a 3 way, which obviously can be used as a SP dimmer. I just figure a SP would be less expensive. Any and all help will be appreciated

When you say led do you mean compatible with led?

it would be less expensive, but then stores (and manufacturers) would have to keep two different switches in stock. That would raise costs. The extra terminal is a pretty marginal cost compared to the electronics required to dim. Just use the three way switches, and ignore the extra terminal.

Yes, LED compatible

Makes sense.


Thanks guys.
