Details

Make all your lights smart lights.
Simply.
Perfect lighting is a part of every truly smart home. Lighting that is responsive. That's always the right brightness. That's always on when you need it, and off when you don’t. But achieving perfect smart lighting has not always been easy...
Until now. Nano Dimmer offers smart, Z-Wave connected lighting without any of the hassle.
- Easily add Z-Wave dimmable wireless control to an existing light switch.
- Built-in power meter monitors energy consumption.
- Includes in-built surge and overload protection.
- Works with or without a neutral wire.
- Compatible with virtually any dimmable lighting (including LED).
- Gen. 5 Z-Wave Plus certified for increased performance and reliability.
Easy to install.
Add Nano Dimmer to your Z-Wave system. It will make your lights smarter. It makes them responsive. It gives you the ability to control them, schedule, dim them and brighten them.
All of this control and intelligence simply comes from having an electrician wire the Nano Dimmer behind your existing light switch.... in minutes.

Nano Dimmer isn’t just better at lighting compatibility, it’s better at wiring compatibility too.
Whether your lights are installed in a 2-wire or 3-wire system, Nano Dimmer is compatible. Lighting Engine auto-detects whether your light switches have a neutral wire or not, then automatically adjusts it settings.
Works with virtually any switch.
Nano Dimmer has been designed to enhance your home, not to completely change it.
That is why it is been designed to work with most of the light switches typically found in homes, new or old. It installs invisibly behind them, enhancing their functionality instead of completely replacing it.
The best lighting compatibility yet.
Powered by both its dedicated Lighting Engine and 32-bit CPU, Nano Dimmer calculates lighting at unparalleled speeds. It calculates perfectly smooth dimming, and perfect bulb compatibility, self-adjusting its settings whenever a new bulb is attached.
That means that you won’t ever have a problem finding lights that works with Nano Dimmer’s list of compatible bulbs.
LED
CFL
Fluorescent
Incandescent
Halogen
And that’s a list that will keep on growing. Lighting Engine can be upgraded, meaning that new compatibility calculations are only ever a firmware upgrade away.
Nano Dimmer is compatible with Over-the-Air updates, making it easy to install the latest firmware using your compatible Z-Wave Gateway Controller.
Smooth dimming.
Dimming the lights in a room is beautiful. But it’s also extremely complicated and technical.
It takes what is known as phase control; the reduction of the amount of voltage a light bulb consumes along its trailing edge or leading edge.

You don’t need to worry about any of that, because Nano Dimmer makes smart lighting simple. It simplifies the wiring, and it simplifies the dimming.
Nano Dimmer is compatible with both leading edge and trailing edge lighting.
Perfectly small.
The first ever Z-Wave in-wall dimmer? That was from Aeotec way back in 2006. It was quickly followed up by the best-selling Micro Dimmer 2. Aeotec have once again redefined Z-Wave in-wall dimmers with the all new Nano series.
To make an in-wall lighting controller this perfect means working from the ground up. But despite now being 60% smaller than the original technology, every single millimetre of Nano Dimmer benefits from Aeotec's 10 year’s experience. That decade’s worth of expertise makes Nano Dimmer compact without compromise.


Perfectly safe.
Your lighting may be perfect, but that doesn’t mean the electricity powering it is. Things happen. Surges happen and are common, and Nano Dimmer protects against them.
With a in-built surge and overload protector, Nano Dimmer not only keeps your lighting connected it keeps them protected.

Perfectly upgraded.
Nano Dimmer dramatically improves the lighting in your home. Aeotec's 3rd generation of invisible lighting controller outperforms all that has come before it.
Dimming is smoother. Compatibility is broader. Lighting is faster and more responsive.
Automation and intelligence have never been more powerful. And it comes in such a small size, that you’ll be amazed at just how much functionality Aeotec were able to craft inside...
New lights, no problems.
Keep Nano Dimmer compatible and Lighting Engine up to date; Nano Dimmer’s firmware can be updated wirelessly (Over-the-Air).
250% faster.
Your lighting should be responsive. Nano Dimmer responds in milliseconds - 250% quicker than previous models.
Gen 5.
Nano Dimmer is built upon Aeotec’s leading Gen5 technology and is powered by the latest version of Z-Wave — Z-Wave Plus.
No gateway, no worries.
With its auto timers and settings, Nano Dimmer can still be automated and controlled when your gateway is down.
Dimming levels.
Perfect dimming needs precision. Nano Dimmer can be dimmed at 1% increments from 0% right through to 100% brightness.
Smooth dimming.
Nano Dimmer offers a customisable ramp rate so that it can dim or brighten as fast or as smooth as you want it to.
Fan control.
Control your lights and control your ceiling fans. Nano Dimmer can be wired to turn select ceiling fans as powerful as 100 watts on and off, and control their speeds.
Lighting Engine.
Homes have unique lighting and switches. From bulb type to switch type to wiring type to load type, Lighting Engine powers Nano Dimmer’s class-leading dimming compatibility.
1.5 amps.
Small in size without compromise. Nano Dimmer can control lights and loads that draw up to 1.5 amps of power.
Wireless control.
Connected lighting has to work. It’s that simple. Nano Dimmer offers a leading 150 metre point-to-point wireless range for flawless wireless performance.
Perfectly slim.
Packed with technology but not bloated in size, Nano Dimmer’s slim shell of just 20mm fits easily behind your homes existing wall switches.
See your spend.
Along with dimming control, Nano Dimmer includes Aeotec’s energy metering technology for an accurate measurement of how much electricity your lights are using.
Stronger signal.
A wireless signal that goes further, stronger. Nano Dimmer’s improved wireless technology is perfect for pass through walls now that it’s 2.5dBM stronger.
DIN rail compatible.
Want to use it with a DIN rail? Pair Nano Dimmer with a generic DIN housing or module box for DIN rail compatibility and use.
Secure lighting.
Because it’s built upon Z-Wave Gen5, Nano Dimmer features banking grade, AES-128 bit encryption to protect the Z-Wave wireless communication.

Value Quality Performance Great item, well worth it
Review by David Rawsthorneon 19/09/2018The nano dimmer is brilliant for upgrading existing lighting to be dimmable (as long as the globes support dimming), but be aware that it is only good for 1.5A, and not designed for most fans we have here in Australia that have the 3 speed switch on the wall. If you are running loads of 40+ watts then you dont even need to run a neutral down to the device, but you may find that at low dimming levels, you get a little flickering of the lights. This can be minimised by using a neutral to the dimmer, or alternatively using a nano dimmer bypass.
I bought 2 of these and will likely be getting more for lighting as I upgrade the lights in the various rooms of the house -
Value Quality Performance Very happy with performance
Review by Steven Andersonon 8/03/2018Very happy with the performance and after switching to Momentary switches we have 2 way lighting control by switch working perfectly. -
Value Quality Performance Does the job as fan controller but noisy
Review by Danon 5/02/2018This product worked as advertised on a celling fan. However it found on lower levels it introduces a hum in the motor that I simply couldn't get rid of. The hum disappears at high speed. I have used a different product in tandem with the original fan controller I now have full control with a whisper quiet motor at all speeds.
