Magnetic Low Voltage Track Lighting
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi, I've been trying to find confirmation on if any of the TP-Link smart switches (dimmer preferred) are compatible with Magnetic Low-Voltage Track Lighting.
I currently have Juno T809 light fixtures connected to a lutron dimmer.
I'm not sure if these types of lights are not as common as they once were, but I'm having difficulty finding explicit compatibility/incompatibility information with this type of lightings and the various switch options available.
Thank you

Based on the product T809 specs the voltage rating is 120V so the product should be compatible with our HS220 Dimmer Switch. We do not test specific products for compatiblity so it would be recommended to take the HS220 specs and speak with the manufacture of the track light to ensure it is compatible with this.
Thank you

@Carl
Thanks for the reply. Has there been any confirmed testing with Magnetic Low Voltage fixtures of any kind? I'm fairly confident if it works with MLV at all, it'll work with these fixtures.
I'll also try a lighting store that carries Juno products to see if they have any information.
Thanks!

@Sam555 is completely correct, i am a Lutron customer as well and am very interested in your hs220. @Carl If you are wanting to gain some new business with more of your technical audience, I would highly recommend doing more testing on simple questions like this. I understand there is a lot of testing needed and you will never have enough time to test out all products (especially with changing technology). But, Mangnetic low voltage lights are definatly in the market and something your competators make products for.
I encorage you to push this higher up the chain to tp-link. Just my two cents.

I'd be happy to forward your comments to our Smart Home team. I can't say we will make any products for the magentic track lights but we are always looking for ways to expand our product line.

@Carl I can't find an answer to this question either. If possible, please ask the engineers.
Here is an explanation from Lutron about why their switches work for a MLV transformer https://www.lutron.com/en-US/Education-Training/Pages/LCE/DimmingBasics.aspx
This is important technical information for a dimmer switch. It would be very useful if it were published.
