thec47.com is like biscotti ... goes best with a warm cup of coffee early in the morning...

Good call on the dimmer.. I try to stay away from Impact brand but have often wondered where to find good dimmers on the cheap...

Best,

Here's a good choice for lights up to 1000W for only $20:

It's a 'router speed control' for woodworking. I've used it on tons of shoots and it works like a charm. Plus it has it's own fuse!

As you know Austria is different therefore this little thing looks different here ;-)

I guess it has an additional feature, you can dimm this thing itself by making a loop...

That's all for now :-)

Apart from the interesting princing policy of IKEA (7,99 US-$, 8,99€ in Germany and 5,99€ in Austria), all the different IKEA-Websites say that the DIMMA is for lights from 25 to 150W.

Bob, you beat me to it. I use the same thing, router speed control from HF. If you follow their sales you can get the speed controller for as little as $10 but even at $20 it is cheaper than the parts to make it yourself and it is normally better built also.

Hi Julian,

My package says up to 300w.

Hi Kilian, € 5,99 is the family price ;-)

Peter,

In Austria you also have special chocolates made by people who in my mind must be like Tim Burton.

Hey Jem...or anybody else....have you had any sound problems as a result of these inexpensive dimmers? I think I heard somewhere.... they can cause buzz or interference with mics if not grounded properly?
