The Legrand dimmer is a real upgrade!
This Legrand dimmer looks modern and stylish. It really makes a difference in the room visually. Functionally it is very easy to use compared to other dimmers I have had. Better in person than the pictures.

Dark Bronze is great color, great functionality.
I just love the look of the Legrand outlet. The color is perfect and matches my dark bronze cabinet hardware. Love the option to dim the under cabinet LED lights.

Great!
I'm really liking this dimmer switch. It works really well with our lights and blends in greatly with our decor. It's great to use when I want a little bit of light to see what I'm doing but want most of the room dark for a movie.

Worked good
This dimmer was installed for some outdoor porch lights, and it worked well with the led wafer lights I chose. No flickering. The only thing was that it didn’t dim all the way down right out of the box. There’s an adjustment dial I could’ve played with but 20-30% was what I wanted anyway.

Best Dimmer we found for the look we wanted
The graphite was the “matte black” finish we were looking for! The no screw finish look really sharp on the covers and the dimmer works great. Really pumped as this is exactly what we wanted!

No screws, clean lines
We replaced our bathroom switch with this one. It's elegant and classy, and adds a touch of class to our newly remodeled bathroom. Lines are clean and there's no screws showing. The changeover from old to new was really easy.

Clean lines, easy to use
This product brings the elegance in my house up a notch. I placed this in a bathroom that I recently redid and it felt like it changed the whole appearance. To spend thousands on new fixtures and not replace the light switches didn't make sense to me so I updated accordingly. No screws, clean lines, and a modern appeal kicked my whole design to the next level.

Product worked well as I had to replace a very old broken dimmer switch in our exsisying kitchen. It was a easy change over and this dimmer works so much better. We had the old push and turn ones, but it broke so it was just a peg you hit in so this one is much nicer and works well.

Sleek look
This dimmer provides such a sleek modern look. The dimmer also provides optimal dimming performance of the LED bulbs. It features a paddle switch to turn your lights on or off, and has a discrete slide control next to the switch, allowing you to adjust the lights for any activity. This dimmer is also an energy saving
product. I want to put one in each common room of my house.

Great Quality
Easy to install for DIY home owner , priced with competition. This dimmed nicely with no flickering of the lighting , when used with HIGH QUALITY LED BULBS ( a lot of people are not aware the flickering you get sometimes is from the lower quality bulbs not your DIMMER SWITCH ) enjoyed having the optional color plates, as i was going to change all my electrical devices to white

Nice switch upgrade
This switch was very easy to install and is definitely an upgrade over standard flippers. The small LED light that shows you were the switch is in the dark is a nice touch. My only complaint is that it's still plastic. At the higher price, I was hoping the face would be aluminum and not plastic meant to look like metal. But in general I'm happy with the switch and it's functionality and looks.

What a great Dimmer Switch
I knew that my husband would love this product! It was a great addition to our dining room. The color fit just right and having the dimming feature is something that I love. My husband is proficient in doing general laborer things, so installing this was not at all a problem for him. I'm not sure if it would be hard for someone with no experience or not. I do love it though and I'm sure someone could youtube the instructions if needed!

We recieved this a few weeks ago and my husband finally got it installed. We are using it in the garage. We really like it. It is nice to adjust the light brightness and it's so easy to use even my kids can use it. The silver color looks nice and updated and makes a good statement.

Love the dimmer!
We have been using this for a few weeks now. It was easy to install taking out our old switch. We installed it on our hallway light. Has came in really handy to turn it way down with the summer and use it kind of like a nite night. I would love to purchase another one and pit it in our bathroom. Works great when you have to be up in the middle of the night but don't want to wake everyone else up.

Great product
this dimmer works and looks nice - love the graphite appearance. I am having a problem getting used to the flip switch with slider-on-the-side configuration. the bathroom 4-light fixture bulbs flutter as I am moving the slider, but figure there must be a reason for it. I do wish I had gotten a more basic style dimmer switch. this separate side-slider to dim my lights makes simply flipping on lights not quite so simple

I’ve had this installed for several weeks now and it was actually pretty simple to install plus I love the control with being able to dim my halogen lightbulb when I choose to. This Legrand radiant® CFL/LED Dimmer Switch, 450 Watt has great features and looks very stylish on the wall, it’s easy to locate in a dark room which is an amazing feature for me. I would highly recommend this product and will purchase more for other rooms in my house.

The HMRW is a Remote dimmer designed to be used with a Master dimmer for multi-locations applications. For a single location dimmer on WAC lighting, we would recommend the RH703PTUTC dimmer.

We are updating our kitchen outlets and switches to coordinate with our new backsplash. I'd like to get all in the Radiant Gray (not Graphite) but not all items are available. Specifically several of the dimmer switches and USB outlets. Will they be added
The Radiant dimmers have interchangeable color facekits so you can make any Radiant dimmer gray using RHKITGRY.

Installed dimmer switch RhCL453P in exitsing light circuit (replaced previous white switch) now LED 6” eyeball lights don’t light full bright. Slider is Original wiring not changed - only the swapped out switch. Why don’t my lights get full bright?
The RCL453P dimmer is designed for screw-in based led bulbs and does not have a high end trim adjustment. If your "eyeball" led's have an external or built in driver, you may want to use the universal dimmer for them. Or check with the LED manufacturer to see what type of dimmer they recommend.

Is it safe to run three of these in a four gang box?
Hello Jim31,
Thank you for contacting legrand Technical Support. Please review the following information that can be located within the installation documentation for part RHCL453PW.
Note: It is normal for the dimmer to feel warm during
operation. Use a separate neutral wire for each phase of a
multiphase system containing
a dimmer, and for high power single phase applications
where flickering is present.
Any combination of dimmers and other devices may be
ganged together
Best regards,
Justin

Yes, if you do not have screw in type bulbs I would stick with the universal dimmer.

I am using the RHCL453P with 6 light bulbs, 8.8 watts each and dimmable on two bathroom light fixtures. Does the 6 bulbs then make the total wattage exceed the minimum of 10 watts? They started to flicker recently at the highest setting.
If you have 6 bulbs at 8.8W's that is a total of 52.8W's and the dimmer is rated up to 450W's of LED. The 10W in the minimum load required and you are above that so that is not an issue.

Is it possible to make the rocker switch control a light, and the dimmer switch control a separate ceiling fan? The light would not be part of the ceiling fan.
The switch you mentioned can only control one load at a time and is rated only for cfl or led bulbs. You would need our switch for the led bulb and a fan control device for the fan.

I have a Legrand RHCL453P which I'm using with some under cabinet LED ribbon lighting. I am experiencing some flickering and I need to know if there is some type of adjustment I can make to alleviate this problem.
Hello,
The RhCL453P is rated for dimmable CFL/LED bulbs which screw into conventional incandescent lamp sockets. The bulbs may not be compatible with the dimmer and this may cause the flickering.
Hope this helps,
Have a great day.

Connecting this to ceiling fan using a single pole installation. To dim & turn on/off the light on the ceiling fan I am using this model. To change fan speed & turn on/off the blades I am using RHDH163PTCCCV6. Do I need a neutral wire for the light?
The RHCL453PTC dimmer does not require a Neutral connection to the dimmer.

For a 3-way operation, does the common wire that is the power source have to be connected to the dimmer or can the common wire that is the switch leg be connected instead?

I have this dimmer installed on a circuit with (2) LED BR30 floodlights (65w equivalent). I have been unable to get the bulbs to dim beIow about 50%. I have adjusted the calibration and tried different bulb manufacturers. Any suggestions?
The dimmer should dim lower than 50% so I would suggest trying another dimmer(same model) or try the universal dimmer in the same line(RH703PTUTC).

I bought this dimmer on amazon and was advertised as a led compatible switch and when arrived packaging say only halo inc compatible. Will this work for led cans and under counter led lighting?
Thank you for your inquiry regarding our RHCL453P dimmer. This device is LED compatible so I am not sure why the packaging for your product says incandescent only. If this is the right part number, the product is compatible with LED screw in bulbs. If you are looking for a compatibility chart, please contact us at 800-223-4185 or via email at tech.support@legrand.us. Hope this helps!

When I shut switch off Im still get 40 volts feed thru switch. Is this normal
Thank you for your question regarding Legrand dimmer RHCL453P.

I like these but there is one if the 3 I have. When the dimmer is all the way down, my 6 LEDs get really dim which is perfect for tv. I want 2 others that get that dim. My electrician said that one would likely be considered defective. I want 2 more!
The RHCL453PW dimmer has a calibration wheel adjustment that can help with the dimming range of the dimmer(see instruction below). The lowest dimming level will also depend on the quality/type/brand of your LED's.
Dimmer may require adjustment to the low end setting to reliably start and/or
remove flickering in bulbs. To adjust, DISCONNECT POWER FROM CIRCUIT, and
remove the Wallplate. Use a small insulated, flat tipped screwdriver to adjust the
trim pot wheel, which is accessible via the slot (marked “CALIBRATION”) provided
on the strap (Figure 3). Turn the wheel downwards to increase the minimum light
intensity setting and turn the wheel upwards to decrease light intensity. Next,
install the Wallplate, restore the power and test. Repeat above as necessary.
