    Dimmers

    Last camping season I got tired of how bright the led lights were so put a remote dimmer on the main room lights. Still wasn’t all that happy because the remote ended up in the catch all drawer. So since I had to replace the power converter (died) and wanted to put an EMS in I decided to make some additional modifications. Never liked that both awning lights came on together and they are way too bright. I found these on-line https://www.ebay.com/itm/Perfit-RV-L...53.m1438.l2649 I changed out the switch in the bedroom to. Mood lighting ( I hope ).

    Three on top of each other is exactly the same height as the control panel shroud.

    I just put a dimmer on the awning lights. Did not cross my mind on separating the lights... Might add this to the “to do list”.
    I do like the switch also.

    Amazon, EBay, etc. There is a thread on this by rivercityJeff, with a you tube video also.
    Search LED Dimmer. I can’t get the link to work correctly on my iPad for the link.

    I'm thinking about mounting the knob style in the same area as the double light switch in the lower ceiling of the hutch. The space should be there and a bit more convenient I think. Especially since now I have to do it with the ceiling lights too...says the boss...

    They were out of the other switches that were linked above, which I think I would have liked just as well, but the knob will be good...especially since I won't have to open the door. On my last trailer, I was glad when some of them went dim...with 2 awning lights, it's crazy bright.
