This tiny little 200W dimmer sits inside a box and still gives you room for a switch in front of it. It's a very niche use case, but it does a very good job provided you don't need more than 200W incandescent on it. 100% bulletproof reliable and dims as low as a Lutron on LED lighting. Other users report flickering - this is the case with all leading edge dimmers, Z-Wave or otherwise, if the bulb isn't up to handling a leading edge dimmer with dirty power. Surprisingly few LED bulbs are able to do this well, and they all cost money, and no Z-Wave trailing edge dimmers exist as of this review.

Bought for a light that I didn’t want to change the switch on. Started flickering shortly after install. Contacted customer service they know it’s an issue and don’t have a plan to fix. Glad I only bought one so far or I would have lights flickering all over. Would go with a zwave system over this.
