VARILIGHT is the brand name of Doyle & Tratt Products Ltd the leading British manufacturer of dimmer switches and decorative switches and sockets supplying the UK retail market, the trade and OEMs. The launch of VARILIGHT's international range has enabled the company to establish a presence in other European markets, the Middle East and Africa.
Varilights standard leading-edge dimmers (V-Dim range) are dimmed using a rotary control knob and turned on and off by either a rotating or a pushing action. These are only suitable for 1-way circuits. If you have a 2-way circuit (where the same lights are controlled by two switches) choose one push-on/push-off dimmer and replace the other with either a rocker or toggle switch. When you switch on a push-on/off dimmer the lights will come on at the same level they were at before they were last switched off. Push-on/off dimmers can also be used on their own in 1-way circuits.
