The 12V EZDim Driver and Dimmer Switch is an all-in-one 40-watt LED power supply and in-wall dimmer designed for low-voltage LED strip lighting and other 12V fixtures. It replaces a separate driver and wall dimmer with one integrated unit that installs in a standard electrical box.
The EZDim accepts 120VAC input and delivers regulated 12V DC output up to 40 watts (3.3 amps), making it suitable for many under-cabinet, cove, accent, and task lighting runs. Unlike traditional installations that require a remote transformer and compatible dimmer, this device combines both components to simplify layout, wiring, and troubleshooting.
- Integrated 120VAC to 12V DC Class 2 driver with built-in dimmer control
- Smooth low-voltage LED dimming from full output down to low light levels
- Fits in a standard single-gang recessed electrical box; no derating when ganged
- No minimum load, with short-circuit, over-voltage, and thermal protection built in
Rated for IP30 dry locations, the EZDim operates from 0°C to 40°C and is UL listed and FCC compliant for residential and commercial projects. Included interchangeable faceplates in glossy white, light almond, and glossy dark brown help match existing décor; a wall plate is supplied separately.
This 12V LED driver dimmer switch is a strong fit for electricians, contractors, remodelers, and advanced DIY users who want a clean, code-friendly way to power and dim low-voltage LED strips from a single in-wall device. A 6-year warranty supports long-term installations and repeat use in professional projects.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: What is the HitLights EZDim 12V 40W driver and dimmer switch?
A: It is an in-wall device that combines a low-voltage 12V LED driver and a dimmer switch in one unit. It accepts 120VAC input and provides 12V DC Class 2 output for compatible LED strip lights and fixtures, so separate drivers and wall dimmers are not required.
Q: Who is this 12V LED driver dimmer designed for and where is it used?
A: The EZDim 12V 40W model is designed for electricians, contractors, cabinet shops, and homeowners installing low-voltage LED lighting. It is commonly used for under-cabinet lighting, coves, shelving, toe-kicks, and display lighting where in-wall dimming and integrated power simplify the project.
Q: How does the EZDim 12V unit install and operate?
A: The device mounts in a standard single-gang recessed electrical box and requires line, load, and neutral connections. A built-in preset dimmer with on/off switch and slider controls LED brightness, and power failure memory restores the last dimming level after an outage. No minimum load or derating is required when ganging units.
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the 40W EZDim model?
A: This model takes 120VAC input (108–132VAC, 50/60Hz) and delivers 12V DC output up to 40W, or 3.3 amps, as a Class 2 supply. It offers efficiency ≥91%, power factor greater than 0.9, and PWM dimming from full brightness down to low levels, with built-in overload and short-circuit protection.
Q: Is the EZDim 12V driver dimmer compatible with all LED strips and fixtures?
A: It is designed for 12V constant-voltage LED strip lights and similar low-voltage fixtures within the 40W power limit. It should not be used with 24V systems or constant-current LED modules. For long-term reliability, keeping total load at or below about 80% of the rated wattage is recommended.
Q: Can the EZDim be installed outdoors or in damp locations?
A: No, this unit is rated IP30 for dry indoor locations only and should be installed in an appropriate interior electrical box. It is not designed for outdoor, wet, or damp environments, and using it outside of the rating may affect safety, performance, and warranty coverage.
Q: What is included with the EZDim 12V 40W, and what accessories are needed?
A: The package includes the EZDim 40W 12V driver dimmer unit and three interchangeable faceplates in glossy white, light almond, and dark brown; a wall plate is not included. Users will need a compatible single-gang wall plate, electrical box, and 12V LED lighting load to complete the installation.
Q: How does this differ from using a separate LED driver and dimmer?
A: Traditional installations use a remote LED driver plus a compatible wall dimmer, which adds wiring complexity and box space. The EZDim replaces both with a single in-wall unit, eliminating remote driver mounting, reducing compatibility issues, and creating a cleaner, more streamlined installation.
