Thread: maximum wattage Model # P-PKG1P-WH-R plug in dimmer

    maximum wattage Model # P-PKG1P-WH-R plug in dimmer

    I would like to know maximum wattage for
    Caseta Wireless 300-Watt/100-Watt Plug-In Lamp Dimmer with Pico Remote Control Kit - White

    Model # P-PKG1P-WH-R

    It has two outlets. I want to plug incandescent (about 280 watts) in one outlet and about 80 watts of LED into the other outlet...will this handle both?

    No, that is 300W incandescent or 100W LED. Sliding scale for mixed loads (150W incan + 50W LED, etc.). You would need another plug in module, which you could pair to the same pico and make the two modules behave as one.

    Darn it. Good luck to me getting 2 units on single pole outlet...I will have to find lower wattage porch light strings... Thank you for the reply.

    BTW...reading the instructions...the 'lamp' must be turned on first before doing the initial setup...Hope this can work with light strings...

    It should. One person was using the Caseta plug in module for LED Christmas lights. His wattage was too low, so he added a USB power adapter to get the wattage high enough.
