This is the ELV (Electronic Low Voltage) dimmer used with low voltage lighting having electronic transformers (as opposed to MLV Magnetic).

After recently installing a cool low-voltage halogen chandelier, I found that my conventional $20 dimmer caused it to buzz and flicker due to the embedded 12V transformer in the fixture. The solution is an ELV unit such as this one. It otherwise works identically to any other dimmer, but without the flicker and buzz when used with low voltage lighting.

Really is no other choice if you have low voltage lighting that you want to dim.

very easy to install. I had purchased a 600W Lutron occupancy sensor dimmer (which was much less expensive) to try to be fancy with my kitchen electronics but all it did was cause the lights to flicker like a strobe light. After speaking with WAC lighting, they recommended this low voltage electronic dimmer. It's always good to call the lighting supplier first to see what dimmers they've tested their product with. It would have made the project that much faster. No worries, thought, as Amazon easily returned the original dimmer and, although this one was double the price, it arrived fast and my kitchen under cabinet lighting is working perfectly...minus the occupancy sensor option.

My new halogen light fixture was flickering when I tried to dim it on a switch the store told me to buy.Two electricians did not know what to do, so I called Lutron and they told me what to buy and it works perfect!

Honest reviews on Lutron DVELV-300P-WH 300-Watt Diva Electronic Low Voltage Single

Works well with LED lights that need a low voltage dimmer. We have found that when working with LED lighting you need to be sure to research your lights, and match the dimmer to the lights. Some require magnetic v. electronic dimmers and drivers. I like that I can set the dimmer and then toggle on and off.

This dimmer was used with three Commercial Electric 4" LED Disk Light T47, which is notorious for buzzing with most LED light dimmers. This device works perfectly. However, one note that wasn't mentioned in any of the literature that I read while researching for a dimmer: This dimmer requires 3 wires to be connected! It must have distribution power (black) directly to it, then the other two wires yellow and neutral white wires sent to the light fixtures. As I was replacing a switch in an existing circuit where power is sent to the light fixtures and the switch is installed as two power leads where it interrupts the power to the light fixtures, this dimmer would not work. I had to rewire the switch circuit to accommodate three wires. This could be a deal breaker in some older homes.
