Product Description:
DC dimmers primarily find their main application in LED lighting systems, particularly for controlling low-voltage LED lights and strips. Since LEDs operate on direct current (DC), a DC dimmer directly regulates the amount of current or voltage supplied to the lamps, thereby adjusting their brightness.
Since it's DC dimmer, the input and output are for low voltage, no need to connect with 120V AC Power. So No UL/ETL required for this product.
Features:
Low-Voltage LED Lighting: This is the most common application. DC dimmers are used for:
Under-cabinet lighting: Popular in kitchens for ambient or task lighting.
Accent lighting: Highlighting features in homes, retail displays, or museums.
Strip lighting: Flexible LED strips used for decorative purposes, cove lighting, or backlighting.
Automotive, marine, and RV lighting: Where the power source is typically 12V or 24V DC

Is it popular in the US?
Yes, DC dimmers are popular in the US for specific applications, primarily in the context of low-voltage LED lighting.
Growing LED Adoption: The increasing widespread adoption of energy-efficient LED lighting in residential, commercial, and industrial settings drives the demand for suitable dimming solutions, including DC dimmers for low-voltage applications.
Ease of Installation (Low-Voltage): For many low-voltage LED installations, DC dimmers are often easier to install between the power supply and the LED lights, without needing to rewire 120V AC circuits in walls.
Specialty Applications: They are standard in environments where the primary power source is DC, like vehicles, boats, and RVs.
Festival decoration: Americans will decorate and celebrate festival, so the atmosphere is very important. The Christmas tree, the thanksgiving dress up need LED Strips, so the DC dimmer play an important role on festival decoration.
While traditional 120V AC dimmers are still prevalent for line-voltage lighting in homes, DC dimmers fill a crucial niche for the growing segment of low-voltage LED applications and are gaining traction in the display technology market due to user preference for flicker-free viewing.
