NewpowOutdoor Dimmer for String Lights Max 360W, Timer Switch(6H&8H) Auto Daily Cycle, Brightness Memory Function, IP67 Waterproof, 60Ft Remote Range for Dimmable Outdoor String Lights, Floor Lamp

Not only does the remote did everything I hoped for, I have to give praise for the company. They went above and beyond the call of duty in customer service. I wish I could put a ">" (greater than) sign with the 5 stars.

I installed a few strings of fun LED lights under our patio cover and along the top of our glass fence. I love the lights but they are quite bright. I looked on Amazon and found this timer. You can dim the lights down to 25% of full brightness, which is fantastic. You can also dim at 50% and 75%. The remote control that comes with the dimmable timer makes it easy to turn the lights on & off at any time from indoors & if you want, you can push a button on the remote for them to turn off after 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, or 4 hours. There is no way to set an “on” time or an “off” time like standard timers, but that is definitely not a dealbreaker. You either use the remote to turn the lights on for however you want, and then turn them off, or use the remote to have them turn off 1-4 hours after you turn them on. The timer is super easy to install—just plug the strand of lights (or an extension cord) into the timer, and then the timer into the outlet.

My Newpow Outdoor Dimmer is a great device. All of the functions are found on the remote control ranging from 4 brightness levels, to multiple off-settings. I wa able to find a waterproof extention cord cover that the device fits nicely in with the extention cord attached. Additionally, when contacting Newpow Customer Service with questions about the remote control, they exceeded my expectations (extremely excessible and helpful). Great company to purchase from.UPDATED REVIEW: I spoke with a NewPow customer service desk twice, first to ask if I could purchase a second remote in case the very small and fragile one provide got lost or damaged. At that time I was told to call back because they were out of stock. When I called back weeks later the customer service rep stated he would send another device out to me "Free of Cost" thus the glowing review above. Now NewPow is charging me for a second unit! What kind of business rule is that? NewPow if you are reading this I'll send the unit back but your customers service model is broken be it training or your record keeping. It's disgraceful!

What a lifesaver. My outdoor lights weren’t getting used because the plug was on the outside of the house, which was a long walk from our actual hangout backyard area. We had a long extension cord running to the plug, but it was just a pain.I got this out of the box and plugged it right into that extension cord. Install was 20 seconds. I no longer have to go outside to turn on the lights if I want to enjoy on a rainy day, or just put them on a timer for dinners. I keep the remote next a window closest to the plug where this is being used. The remote is used about 20ft away from the plug, and through a window has no issues.The dimmer buttons are like 50% , 25% kinda deal, not a manual dial kind. Seems to work fine with my outdoor solar lights from Costco. Though I wouldn’t say there is much difference between them.. all look about 50 percent to me.Can’t speak to the Alexa feature though, not interested in that using it- the remote is simple and effective for me.

I bought a similar product from this company 5 years ago that worked well.This version is not worth your money or frustration. The first one they sent me didn't work out of the box. The replacement is beginning to fail 4 months in. The remote doesn't work most of the time even if you're 10 feet away pointing straight at the unit.I don't know how their quality fell so sharply, but this is now the second unusable unit they've sent me.

This is my second one. It's nice, easy to plug in, has some useful presets like 2 hr and 4 hr and lots of auto dimmer levels.For outdoor use, but only last 1 1/2 years outside. Still, I bought another one because it has all the features at the right price point, and can be used with string lights, regular lights, etc.

I wrote a review on the Newpow lights that I bought with this dimmer. After having a terrible experience with a pair of string lights I bought from Brightech, I decided to pull the trigger on buying this dimmer with my order of Newpow string lights. I didn't know if it was going to come in handy or not but I tend to like my lights dimmer to create a nice, romantic ambiance. After experiencing the almost headlight-like string lights from Brightech, I didn't want to take the chance with Newpow so I gave in and bought the dimmer. The Newpow lights themselves are great as is but the different dimming settings of the dimmer as well as the ability to turn the lights on and off with the remote makes the purchase of the dimmer so worth it! Everyone was super impressed at my holiday party. I've only had the dimmer for a week but honestly, it is such an awesome buy and I'm so happy with my purchase. I had never heard of Newpow before but very happy I stumbled upon them and now will definitely be sticking with them for any future patio lighting needs.

Does the trick with presets and timers.
