Description of HDB7 - 1G 1 or 2 Way 250W Dimmer on a Dimension Brushed Brass Plate with Brass Knob for CFL dimming

Varilight dimmer switches have an industry-wide reputation for exceptional performance, long life and innovation at attractive prices. Like all our products these dimmers are designed to meet the latest European Safety Legislation.


It is important to select the correct dimmer switch for your application so please read the following information carefully.

Our standard dimmers are recommended for mains voltage lighting only. For low voltage applications buy the Intelligent (IQ) Dimmer.

The lights are dimmed by a rotary control knob and turned on and off by a push on/push off action. When selecting this special dimmer add up the wattages of the bulbs you wish to dim, this dimmer can control between 1 and 4 Varilight Energy Saving Lamps.

This dimmer can also be used for mains incandescent GLS lamps (standard mains light bulbs), maximum load as specified on the dimmer.

You are not able to use Rotary Dimmers on Wire Wound Transformers or fans and other Inductive Loads (for these products see Intelligent Dimmers, Touch/Remote Dimmers, and Fan Regulators).



This product is best used for dimming Varilight's Dimmer Dimmable Energy Saving Lamps (yca20d-b22 OR yca20d-e27), it has been produced for this purpose.

This version is the Varilight Dimmer Dimmable Energy Saving Lamp with bayonet fitting which you are able to run using a light dimmer. If you would prefer the Varilight Dimmer Dimmable Energy Saving Lamp with Edison (Screwed) fitting, please choose YCA20D-E27. This dimmer dimmable energy saving lamp can be used with dimmers only, for the switch dimmable version please see YCA20S-B22.

The Dimmable Energy Saving Lamp produces an output of 1300 lumens. Further benefits are provided by the DigiFlux® digital dimming technology with excellent power factor correction delivering a power factor of over 0.95 for the Dimmable EnergySaver+. This compares with a power factor of less than 0.6 for most CFLs, which results in inefficient energy distribution and higher energy costs.

At a time when governments have energy-saving high on their agenda, and with energy costs soaring, we expect these new products to appeal to local authorities, industry and householders alike.

This light bulb is designed to be used with a standard domestic dimmer switch (with phase cut technology, leading or trailing edge). For optimum compatibility choose Varilight dimmer switches.

Check the loading limits of your dimmer: This energy saving light bulb is rated at 20W.
Please note that dimmer switches have minimum load limits. Therefore you must check the minimum load of your (usually on the rear of the dimmer or on the packaging) and make sure the minimum load is met. For example, if the dimmer has a minimum load of 40 watts (W) you need to use at least 2 Dimmable Energy saving light bulbs (2x20W = 40W).

Special Varilight low load dimmers are available with a minimum load of 20W if you want to use just one Dimmable Energy Saving lamp with a dimmer...Please look in the REMOTE DIMMERS Category, and choose any of these.

Also check the maximum load limit, so that if your dimmer has a maximum load limit of 250W then you can use a maximum of 12 Dimmable energy saving light bulbs (12 x 20W = 240W)

Coming Soon:
In addition to dimmable CFLs, the DigiFlux® range will include fully dimmable ballasts for linear fluorescent lamps (LFLs) that avoid the disadvantages of traditional 1-10V systems by using standard two-wire control not requiring additional control cabling. These too will be available either to be controlled by a dimmer or by a standard light switch and will extend lamp life significantly. A special sequencing version is also planned, designed for illuminated point-of-sale and advertisements. The ballast will cycle the brightness accordingly to a pre-programmed a time sequence.
