Three independent dimmer modules sit behind one solid Smoked Bronze plate, so you can control three separate lighting circuits from a single switch position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose Your Knurl Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Smoked Bronze plate stays fixed, but the knurled knobs come in three finishes. Smoked Bronze keeps the whole switch reading as one solid block of dark metal. Brass brings a warm contrast against the darker plate. Steel gives a cooler, more industrial edge. All three are machined from solid metal, so the choice is really about how much contrast you want on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the three dimmer modules is a rotary dial with electronic soft start built in, plus two way switching so you can turn the circuit fully on or off as well as dim it. Together they handle LED bulbs from 5W to 120W or incandescent and halogen bulbs from 60W to 400W, running on a standard 230 to 240V, 50Hz supply. Turn the knob to dim, press it to switch the circuit off completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Works Best\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree gang plates like this suit rooms with several lighting layers worth separating out, a kitchen with pendants, downlights and under cabinet lighting, or a living room where ceiling lights, lamps and a picture light all want their own control. If you only need to manage one or two circuits from a single plate, the same Linear Knurl design is also available in single and 2 gang dimmer versions elsewhere in the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMade By Buster + Punch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuster + Punch was founded in 2013 by Massimo Buster Minale, an architect who had worked at practices including Foster and Partners before he left to build custom motorbikes by hand in a garage in Shoreditch. He machined every part himself instead of buying it in or moulding it in plastic, and that same approach is why this dimmer is solid metal rather than stamped steel or plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGood To Know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate size: 88 x 88mm, 3 gang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate finish: solid machined Smoked Bronze metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitching: rotary dimmer with electronic soft start and two way switching, three independent circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical rating: 230-240V, 50Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimming range: LED 5W to 120W, incandescent or halogen 60W to 400W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnurl knob finish options: Smoked Bronze, Brass, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the box: plate and module hardware plus your chosen Linear Knurl knob detail kits, supplied separately for self assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated for dry indoor locations only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe with a dry, lint free cloth, no chemical cleaners.
