I'm just wondering why you want to dim the lights in a pantry?

That is a puzzlement to me too. I guess if going directly from bed to a night-time snack with eyes not adjusted to bright light :-)

Well, it IS kind of reminiscent of this .... maybe it's really, REALLY bright ;-)

yankee4210 - Thanks, but I believe that's not an ELV (reverse phase). And your picture, those are dim versions of the Crees we have everywhere... (on dimmers).

mike, ionized - You ask the questions which DH no longer attempts! I'm a dimming fanatic and our lighting plan is more than a little over engineered. Plus - this light sounds so cool - as you dim it, the colors change, as well as lighting level/intensity.

We have a wall motion sensor light in the mudroom which we all REALLY like (no dimmer). My goal for the dry goods pantry, is that for the most of the time, when the doors are open, the motion sensor will fire as we walk by. Hence, I'd like to set the right ambiance when no other lights are on in this area, by adjusting the lighting.

Plus, the light seems really cool:)

Your comments did make me reevaluate what I'm trying to accomplish, which I appreciate.

My goal for the dry goods pantry, is that for the most of the time, when the doors are open, the motion sensor will fire as we walk by.

Is this a desired effect?!? I think I'd prefer that the light didn't come on if I was just walking by. I'd only want it to come on if I went in and therefore I'd want it at the full brightness.

And if it is dimmed most of the time and then when you actually wanted to use the pantry, you had to adjust the brightness to full, then what's the point of the automatic motion sensor? Just put in a normal switch.

I would have to agree with greg. Not really a practical idea, but its your house do what you will. Just remember you will constantly have to explain the whole thing and get goofy looks from guests when they set it off.

"Um, I walked past the pantry and this weird blue light went off in there is that normal?"

lol

Just call it the "transporter room".

Perhaps I shouldn't be stirring the pot but Sylvania (and I presume most of the other major manufacturers) make bulbs that dim to an orangy, sunset color) and one combined with a ordinary fixture would probably be a lot cheaper than some fancy light.

Hi all - I've been grinning over these responses (and listening). The light is shipping this week, DH is ready to start on the wiring and I still don't have a motion sensor which works with the light.

homepro01 - Glad you posted again! I am going to order the haiku and see how it works, and compare it to the Tech Lighting light. Did you get the wall control as well?

No need for the wall control. It comes with a remote and the app on your phone if needed.

Good luck!

homepro01 - DH suggested we wire the wall control in place in case we ever needed it, so we ordered as well.

The light arrived today and DH hooked it up via a 'widow maker' (sigh). A couple bumps with the wireless network (which I've had with another device) but once it connected, I love the dimming and brightness options. This is a terrific option for the fanatic (that would be me) who wants to dim everything. Thanks!!

Oldbat,

Glad you liked it! I really love them for my kitchen. I am getting a few more and then all the lighting projects will be done. Are you using the motion function?

homepro - The motion function is very much one of the requirements - will advise once installed this weekend :) We also ended up getting the wall control (given our history with remote controls).

Did we ever find a decent ELV motion sensor/dimmer for this application?

I wrote Lutron who suggested:

Maestro Wireless model number MRF2-6ELV and our radio power savor sensor either the Ceiling-mount occupancy/vacancy sensor LRF2-OCR2B-P-WH or our Wall-mount occupancy/vacancy sensor LRF2-OWLB-P-WH

But that's like $200+ in switches and sensors to do what should cost less than half that. I'm hoping some manufacturer has considered this rather common need after all this time.

Hi David - I'm belatedly replying. There was no need for a dimmer in this case as the remote control for the Haiku light performs beautifully. Unfortunately, it appears the lights are no longer being sold on the Big Ass Fans / Haiku home site. Most disappointing as we LOVE this light.
