    I’d urge anyone who wants to install dimmer switches to watch this video. It’s one of the few that actually pulls out a multimeter and does the installation correctly. He mentions he’s not an electrician, but I have been for 15 years, this is spot on. The part about the water heater button is an example of how people should be forward thinking when modifying their RV.

    I can’t give this video enough thumbs ups!!! Between the links to the 3D-printed switch blank and actual dimmer switches to his very clear instructions - it was all perfect. I unplugged the shore power to our Heritage Glen camper, killed the power disconnect under the bed where the LFP batteries are located, and used the WAGO connectors I had to install the switch in about 5 minutes. I kept the spade connectors w/wires connected to the original plug in case we decide to ever revert back to stock…but unlikely. Now we can use our awning light at the campsite without blinding everyone within 50 feet! Thanks again, RV Tips & Travels!!!

    Ross, Thanks for the great video! I purchased all recommended supplies for my Grand Design camper, performed the voltage checks you recommended and wired the dimmer following the instructions included with the switch. Oops! Didn’t work! Checked your video again and followed YOUR wiring recommendations in the video, works perfectly! (The instructions included with the switch are slightly different).

    Been looking fwd to this video for awhile. Yes, its a straightforward process that most shadetree mechanics can handle, but its nice to see someone else walk through it step by step. Great video. Thanks!

    Thank you Ross. Great video. We do however have the CompassConnect system so we'll be eagerly waiting for a video that highlights that panel. Cheers.

    I literally just got my last switch in the mail today to finish my trailer. I ordered those same ones after I saw your other video and did my main living area, bunk room, and awning. Decided I needed to get a fourth switch and do the bedroom. Great little and easy mod. Thanks for the info!

    Great install Ross! Love the callouts about the water heater and the exposed back of the board. Also, that transition at the end to the end card was awesome. I might steal that editing trick! 😂

    I cannot install a dimmer for the interior lights but I could for my awning lights though. Thanks for the content Ross and btw, I love using the Wago connectors.

    I followed the example in your video along with the parts in your description below, everything works just like your video. Thank you for sharing this improvement. I've got the filter material on order to dim the bright LED's next. Thanks again.
