LED Advanced Dimmer Dark Bronze 150W Single-Pole/3-Way - Radiant

In this review the Legrand Radiant 150-Watt Single-Pole/3-Way LED Advanced Dimmer in dark bronze is evaluated for homeowners and electricians who need reliable, flicker-free control of dimmable LED fixtures. The bottom line: it is a practical choice when you want a compact dimmer that works out of the box with most dimmable LED bulbs up to 150W at 120VAC, offering useful adjustments to eliminate common LED dimming issues without requiring a neutral wire. For retrofit or new-construction installs where compatibility and clean designer styling matter, this dimmer earns consideration.

Key Features

• LED-optimized circuitry: Designed specifically for dimmable LED bulbs and fixtures (except 0-10V drivers), the circuitry reduces flicker and provides a smoother dimming range.
• 150W capacity: Supports up to 150 watts at 120VAC, making it suitable for typical residential LED lighting loads in single-pole or 3-way setups.
• Adjustable limits: High- and low-end dimming limits are simple to set with an easy-to-push calibration button, helping to remove flicker and tailor the range to specific bulbs.
• Optional Burst Mode: An LED Burst Mode can be enabled to reduce or eliminate turn-on delays and pop-on behavior with some LED lamps.
• No neutral required: Installs in less than 15 minutes in place of a basic switch or dimmer and works without a neutral, simplifying retrofits.

Who It's For

The dimmer is aimed at homeowners, electricians, and renovators who use dimmable LED bulbs and want a straightforward, designer switch that reduces flicker and pop-ons. It fits well in kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms and hallways where the radiant Collection aesthetic and a screwless wall plate will be used for a coordinated look.

It is less suitable for installations that rely on 0-10V LED drivers or where loads exceed 150W. Buyers who need more advanced smart-home integration or require a neutral for specific wiring schemes should consider other models.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Works out of the box with most dimmable LED bulbs to provide flicker-free dimming across a broad range.
• Easy calibration and high/low end adjustability let users fine-tune performance for specific lamps.
• Attractive Radiant design in dark bronze pairs well with screwless wall plates for a clean look.
• Simple retrofit installation without a neutral makes replacement quick for common home wiring.

Cons
