Dimable Light relays
-
Hi
Switching a light on and off can be easily achieved by the relay build.
What about being able to dim a light?
Is it posible to use the same build with the existing in wall dimmer?
What about down lights and Led lights?Regards

If you want to dim LEDs you can find an example here:

Thanks for the reply, I take it there is currently no Sketch for this module just yet?
Also is it not possible to use the existing physical switch and in wall dimmer along with som clever code and a replay module?

I saw an example sketch on how to control the module the linked page. You can use the LED dimmer example on mysesnors to set/receive dim-level from controller.
Yes, you could use your regular wall-switched as input to an arduino (disconnected from AC), but you would probably not be able to fit the electronics behind the switch.
Working with AC is dangerous. You need to know what you are doing!
