Soft start dimmers

[pmlavers]

I'm looking for a dimmer (or switch) with a soft start for 450w of mains halogen GU10s. I guess given the downrating that must be applied I need at least a 600w dimmer. Any ideas?

If you buy a dimmer that doesn't have a switch function - i.e. you can only turn on/off the lights by ramping the dimmer control up or down - then it will be soft start by definition.

If you can't find one without the switch function, then you could maybe just get into the habit of only switching at less than 100%

This product might be worth a try:

I've just fitted a load of these, work well.
