Purchased as a replacement for one that went bad. This one is better than the original! Several options for mounting the touch pad allows more versatility.

We've had 2 of these units. I'm not sure why the first died (gift to my mother-in-law) but the second died on a cold, dry winter day when a static charge zapped from my finger to the touch device. Killed it dead. Worked great until then.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I purchased this dimmer but I was pleasantly surprised. First of all it doesn't look like the picture, it's a small black touch pad that with the lightest touch turns the lights on at either 10%, 50%, or 100% brightness. I bought the Westek lights to install in an entertainment center and the lights are very bright at full capacity so the dimmer makes it nice to create just enough light while I'm watching movies. Installation was very easy and only took a few minutes. I think it would be nice if they included a way to mount the switch to the side of a cabinet; they suggest using double sided tape. Since I don't need to do that anyway then I didn't care.
