Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are 220V/240V LED controllers?

They're controllers specifically designed to work with mains voltage LED systems (the standard UK household electricity). Unlike 12V or 24V controllers that need a transformer or power supply, these work directly with your standard wall outlets or hardwired mains circuits. They're particularly useful for larger installations, commercial settings, or anywhere you want to avoid using multiple low-voltage transformers. Think of them as the high-powered option for serious lighting projects!

Are mains voltage controllers safe to use?

Absolutely - when installed correctly! All our 220V/240V controllers meet strict safety standards and include protective features to prevent electrical hazards. That said, because they work with mains voltage, we do recommend having a qualified electrician install them if you're not completely confident with electrical work. Unlike low-voltage systems where mistakes are usually harmless, mains voltage requires proper respect and careful installation. But once properly installed, they're completely safe for everyday use.

Why would I choose a mains voltage controller instead of a 12V or 24V one?

Great question! Mains voltage controllers are brilliant for several specific scenarios: large installations where using multiple low-voltage power supplies would be cumbersome; situations where you need to control lights over long distances without voltage drop; outdoor lighting where waterproof mains voltage fixtures are already being used; and retrofit projects where existing mains wiring is already in place. They simplify the system by eliminating the need for transformers and can be more cost-effective for larger setups.

Do you have smart options for 220V/240V controllers?

We certainly do! Many of our mains voltage controllers offer smart features like WiFi connectivity, app control, and compatibility with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Home. These give you all the convenience of smart lighting - schedules, remote access, voice control - while working directly with mains voltage. Just look for "smart" or "WiFi" in the product descriptions to find these options. They're particularly popular for controlling outdoor lighting or multiple areas in commercial settings.

Can I use these controllers with any type of LED light?

Not quite - these controllers are specifically designed for LED lights that are rated for mains voltage (220-240V AC) operation. They won't work with standard 12V or 24V LED strips or fixtures - those need their own low-voltage controllers. Always check that your LED lights are specifically designed for direct mains voltage connection before using these controllers. Using the wrong voltage controller with your lights can damage them or even create safety hazards.

Do I need special wiring for mains voltage controllers?

You'll need standard mains electrical wiring that meets all current regulations - the same kind used for regular light fixtures in your home. However, the installation should comply with building regulations and electrical codes. For permanent installations, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoors, we recommend having a qualified electrician do the installation to ensure everything is safe and up to code. Some of our controllers come with plugs attached for simpler plug-and-play operation with compatible lights.

Can I dim mains voltage LED lights?

Yes! We offer several 220V/240V dimmers specifically designed for mains voltage LED lighting. However, it's important to note that not all mains voltage LED lights are dimmable - you need to check that your lights are specifically labelled as "dimmable" before using a dimmer controller. Using a dimmer with non-dimmable LEDs can cause flickering, inconsistent performance, or even damage to the lights or controller. For the best results, we recommend using our dimmers with LED lights we've verified as compatible.

Do you sell RGB controllers for mains voltage?

Yes, we do offer RGB controllers for 220V/240V systems! These allow you to create colourful lighting effects with compatible mains voltage RGB LED fixtures. They range from simple remote-controlled options to advanced WiFi controllers with app control and custom scene settings. Just make sure your RGB lights are designed for mains voltage operation and have the correct connections for these controllers. These are fantastic for commercial spaces like restaurants, bars, and retail environments where you want impressive colour effects without complex low-voltage wiring.

Are these controllers suitable for outdoor use?

Many of our mains voltage controllers are indeed rated for outdoor installation, with weatherproof housings rated IP65 or higher. These are perfect for controlling garden lighting, architectural façade illumination, or outdoor commercial displays. For outdoor installation, always check the IP rating in the product description to ensure it offers sufficient protection for your environment. Even with weatherproof controllers, we recommend installing them in a relatively sheltered location or using a weatherproof enclosure for maximum longevity.
