Outdoor Mains Incandescent Light Dimmers for Commercial and Leisure Use in the UK
Want to trim electricity costs? Want to control the light intensity levels in your outdoor areas and outbuildings? Want to create relaxing outdoor low-light level ambiences? If so, we may be able to help you!
All types of businesses from the farming community with sheds and livestock outbuildings to pubs, restaurants, cafes and bistros with outdoor areas to stables, kennels, catteries and many others too could benefit from a new and unique, weather resistant (IP67) dimmer switch kit product recently launched by Bri-Luxe Ltd.
The Bri-Mod RD1 is a premium outdoor IR remote controlled intelligent dimmer switch kit suitable for all types of dimmable mains incandescent lamps and dimmable CFL lamps. It enables outdoor mains incandescent lights to be switched on and off or varied up and down the brightness scale using a remote control handset similar to those used on most TVs.
By dimming your lights you cut your electricity consumption, shrink your carbon footprint and save on your re-lamping costs!
You also can control the light trespass and light pollution you create. Great for the environment and your neighbours!
Works with mains incandescent lamps up to 300 Watts maximum load, low voltage (12V) halogen lighting suitably wired to appropriate dimmable electronic transformers, and dimmable Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs).
Ideal For Varying Light Intensity Levels in Outbuildings, Kennels, Stables, Garages & More!
Do you have damp and cold outbuildings such as sheds, barns, kennels, garages, workshops, stables, etc., and you want to vary mains incandescent lighting levels inside these? Do you sometimes want the lighting dim and at other times require your lighting up at full brightness?
Imagine the convenience of being able to switch your mains incandescent lighting on and off and also vary the light levels by remote control with no need to touch anything electrical apart from the button on a remote control handset!
It is now possible with a new product from Bri-Luxe Ltd, the rugged, weather resistant (IP67) Bri-Mod RD1 outdoor IR remote controlled intelligent dimmer switch kit! It makes adjusting the light intensity levels and setting it at that level a very simple task. At last you can create perfect light levels and keep your running costs as low as possible!
Reduce Running Costs of Outdoor Mains Incandescent Lighting
Incandescent lamps provide a high quality light source compared to fluorescent, mercury, sodium and much of the available LED illumination.
The problem is they consume more energy and are costly to operate. Many people, however, dislike the glaring, clinical, and harsh light emitted by fluorescent, compact fluorescent lights (CFLs), LED and High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps.
Other issues with them are the colour rendering from most of them is poor and quite unacceptable for non-industrial environments. They are also very difficult to dim to create a pleasant ambience. Many folks much prefer the crisp clean light produced by modern incandescent lamps (especially halogen) but are concerned about the running costs.
Imagine you have (outdoor) incandescent lighting in place which is fully variable by means of a tough, weather resistant, remote controlled dimmer switch module! As you reduce the intensity of the lights to create the perfect mood you also cut down on energy consumption, shrink your carbon footprint and your running costs!
The Bri-Mod RD1 remote controlled outdoor dimmer switch module gives the best of all worlds; you can still use your high quality incandescent lamps, you have the capability to create and enjoy the perfect ambience, and you benefit from the energy cost savings as a result of dimmed lighting!
Control Your Light Trespass & Light Pollution
Worried about compliance with bye-laws and legislation regarding light trespass and light pollution coming from outdoor incandescent lighting on your premises? Want to avoid spending your valuable time and money paying fines for non compliance or even worse, losing your license? Want to maintain the best possible relationships with your surrounding neighbours and businesses by controlling your light trespass and light pollution?
Imagine being able to dynamically reduce the amount of incandescent light trespass and light pollution you emit down to an acceptable or legal level at the press of a button, keeping the law and neighbours off your case.
It is totally possible using our new outdoor lighting product, the Bri-Mod RD1. This is an intelligent remote controlled outdoor dimmer switch module which allows you to take control! Simply “set and forget” outdoor incandescent light levels to reduce the amount of light trespass and light pollution you produce. Be responsible and keep your neighbours happy!
Use it with Existing Lighting Fixtures
With the help of a qualified electrician it is easy to fit the Bri-Mod RD1 remote controlled outdoor dimmer switch module kit to your existing outdoor incandescent light fixture wiring, allowing you to conveniently adjust and control your exterior lighting levels.
At long last you can finally “tame” those glaring linear halogen lamps or those incandescent floodlights on the side of your buildings or in your outdoor eating or smoking areas and actually create some atmosphere! Conserve energy and save money as you dim those lights down!

About the Bri-Mod RD1 Dimmer Module Kit
Bri-Luxe Ltd has combined sophisticated electronic dimmer circuitry with proven robust weatherproof utility lighting control technology to yield a totally unique, revolutionary new outdoor lighting product.
The Bri-Mod RD1 is an intelligent infrared (IR) remote controlled outdoor incandescent lighting dimmer switch module supplied in kit form.
It allows you to precisely control and set by means of almost any available IR remote control handset the intensity of light in an outdoor lamp, or lamps.
This gives you the ease and safety of controlling an incandescent load outdoors up to 300 Watts using either 240VAC mains lamps or 12V low voltage halogen lamps which are appropriately wired to a suitable dimmable electronic transformer.
By pressing a single user defined button on the remote control handset, a suitably wired lamp can be switched on, off, or the light level can be varied from full brightness or reduced to just a glowing filament in the lamp.
The dimmer switch module must first be programmed to accept a signal from an IR remote control handset. This straightforward programming is undertaken using the included programming wand. Any standard IR remote control handset unit (e.g. TV, DVD, or video remote) can be used to communicate control instructions to the outdoor dimmer switch module.
The Bri-Mod RD1, once programmed, is operated by pressing the user selected IR control key or button on the IR remote control handset.
The non-volatile memory employed in the RD1 dimmer switch circuit will not lose the stored settings even in the event of prolonged power loss. Once the desired light level is set, the RD1 module will “remember” the setting and if the dimmer switch module is switched off at the mains and then back on again the lamp will return to the last light level set.
Note- If a particular light level is required without varying for the long term, say for reducing light trespass, a lamp can be dimmed to the desired light level using the Bri-Mod RD1and switched on and off at the mains using a standard mains light switch, this method (“set and forget”) eliminates the chances of the setting being accidentally altered by use of the remote control handset.
The dimmer module circuit utilises a microprocessor in its construction and hence many advanced features are possible. The microprocessor monitors both overload and overheating conditions and will take appropriate action to protect the electronics by shutting down the circuit in the event either condition is detected.
A “soft start” feature considerably lengthens the life of the bulb, and the use of Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) technology incorporated in the dimmer switch control electronics results in very low power consumption and negligible audible noise generated by the circuit.
The products developed by Bri-Luxe Ltd. are technologically advanced and carefully engineered to offer optimum safety, enjoyment, convenience, and reliability.
