knute73 0 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 I use a flood to light my tune to sign. Without buying dimmer switches, does anyone know of an easy way to dim the flood? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

knute73 0 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 I did go with a regular dimmer switch. I mounted it to the back of the sign and put it in a Rubbermaid container. I will try and add pictures. They were less then $5 at Menards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Statman 10 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 I just use one of my channels and dim that - the cost of a separate dimmer switch is probably overall less, but I can control on, off, and intensity this way . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartrand 0 Posted November 18, 2011 Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 I do the same as statman and just use a lor channel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
knute73 0 Posted November 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2011 I have a timer that controls my the show and turns the power off to all my outlets at the same time, so I have always just used that. Then I didn't have to use a channel. Here is what I did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
