What t exactly is the 4A Dimmer module ? Do you have a purchase link ? I looked online, but could not find the one you used.

Ahh Looking at video from Youtube, I see it in the Video Comments

Correct :slight_smile: All of the links are in the Video’s description. 4A should allow you to add quite a bit of lights. In a setup like this it would be very annoying to have multiple dimmers, so these help control multiple panels with just one.

Still nice to have Multiple dimmers, aka C172 has two double ones on the panel, as well two the dome lights, and one rear cabin light,

That’s a total of 7 * $25 = $175, so yes, starts to get expensive., but can you put a price on Total Immersion !!

Could this control a LED strip?

@N6722C - Yes put in as much as you want :slight_smile:
@Bondjpf - Yes, anything that is 12V will work. Just verify that the device your are dimming specifies it is Dimmable.
