How to Choose the Right Manufacturer?

With so many options, how do you decide?

  1. Protocol Matters: Are you using legacy wiring (Triac), commercial standard (0-10V), or a digital system (DALI/KNX)? Choose a specialist in that protocol. (e.g., LTECH for DALI, Lutron for Triac).

  2. Region & Voltage: Ensure the manufacturer is certified for your region (UL for USA, CE for Europe). A 220V dimmer from Simon won't work in a 120V US home.

  3. Smart vs. Analog: If you need app control, look at brands like Tuya-ecosystem partners, Lutron Caséta, or Philips Hue. For simple reliability, sticking to Leviton or Legrand is a safe bet.
