SmartLiving,
I have tried excluding and including many times. didnt help.
at the setting of 100% the light looked more like 80%. and yes, as i dimmed with the controller it dimmed the light.
I have since returned the aeotec dimmer as it just wasnt bright enough. as soon as i removed it and put it back to the way it was, brightness was perfect.
ive tried 3 in total, 1 had this brightness issue, the other 2 worked for 30 seconds, then lights went out and never came back. measuring output voltage showed close to 0 volts.
Now I checked that the globes (Phillips 50w halogens) were dimmable, which they are, I also checked that the electronic transformers (actec Mini60 Series II) were dimmable, which they are.
I should mention that I do not have dimming functionality with out the zwave modules. they are just regular toggle switches, on and off. i am replacing the toggle switches with Clipsal Push button bell press mechanisms (30BPPBL) which are momentary switches which the aeotec dimmers are compatible with.
If im happy to always dim using zwave control, i dont need a dedicated dimmer do i? such as

Thanks in advance. Sorry if im taking this off topic, I can start a new thread if needed.
I've provided as much info as possible, if theres anything ive missed, let me know
