4 out of 5 stars Could use push on and off   September 28, 2008
Anthony J. Giorgianni
A nice product. A couple of ways it could be better:

1) Smaller. It's a bit large
2) Push on/off. You have to turn the rotary knob all the way to click it off, which of course changes the dim setting. A push on/off would making it easier to turn it on and off and let you keep the dim level. If you can plug the cord into a switched outlet, this isn't an issue.

But don't let this stop you from getting it. It's very handy. The internal clamp-type wire hold-downs - instead of a screw that the wire wraps around - are excellent.




4 out of 5 stars Leviton Dimmer Switch #836-6250-3   September 18, 2008
Thomas V. Handrick Sr. (Perryville, MO USA)
The Leviton Dimmer Switch #836-6250-3 accomplished exactly what I desired--the ability to adjust the brightness of our decorative hanging lamp. The only minor drawback was the small difficulty I had installing the wires in it which may have been due to their heavy duty thickness. The product's functionality, however, is exactly what I desired.

Using it for an antique lamp on a desk. This device was easy to install and is easy to use.

Easy to install, well-made with solid screw post connections, not the less-safe type that pierces the lamp cord insulation. This dimmer functions very well with a click-to-off position so you are sure it is turned off. It is a bit larger and bulkier than I had expected, but a welcome replacement for the small cheap in-line switch that came with the lamp. Worth the price!


4 out of 5 stars This dimmer switch can be used for more than lamps!   April 3, 2002

I used this switch for a electrical floor pad (90 watts) to provide heat under my feet while I'm at the computer. It was a little difficult to install since the cord was larger than the normal lamp cord, but the pad no longer burns my stocking feet. I used to have to keep turning it on and off. No more!
