Buy Xmas DimmerEvery output has two faders: the 1st dims the odd bulbs (1, 3, 5 …), the 2nd the even bulbs (2, 4, 6 …). Each fader only dims its own bulbs, so the two groups can glow at different levels. Hold Flash for full brightness on both. Scenes fade over the fade time. Demo modes play on top of your faders; switch one off and your faders come back.
Why Xmas Dimmer
-
Keep the lights you own
Use your existing low-voltage Christmas light strings. No new decorations to buy.
-
Fade, chase, sync to music
Control them like stage lights from any DMX console, DMX player or LED Strip Studio.
-
8 strings from one box
Up to 8 strings, with 2 DMX channels each for their two LED circuits.
How It Works
-
1Take your light string
A low-voltage string of 12–36 V. Cut off its small blink-mode controller.
-
2Screw it into an output
Two wires into a pluggable screw terminal, no soldering. Set the DMX address on the DIP switch.
-
3Run the show over DMX
Fade, chase and cue the strings from your console, a DMX player or LED Strip Studio.
See It in Action
Ordinary Christmas lights only cycle through a few built-in blink modes. With Xmas Dimmer the same strings fade, chase and run in time with the music, together with the rest of your lighting.

Questions Before You Buy
Which Christmas lights work with it?
Low-voltage LED Christmas light strings (12–36 V DC) whose LEDs are wired in two anti-parallel sections, the kind that switch between odd and even sections by changing polarity. CCT LED bulbs with anti-parallel LEDs, such as Edison CCT bulbs, work too.
Do I need to modify my lights?
Only the controller part: cut off the original blink-mode controller and screw the string's two wires into an output. No soldering.
Can I use more than one Xmas Dimmer?
Yes. Continue the DMX line to the next Xmas Dimmer: up to 32 devices on one DMX line. Each dimmer gets its own DMX address on its DIP switch.
Can it be installed outdoors?
No, Xmas Dimmer is for indoor use. Keep it in a dry place; the light strings can go wherever they are rated for.

Keep the lights you already own and control up to 8 strings from any DMX console.
