For the price it's good

Been using this one for years, been reliable and dims some 1k lights without any effort given... (fixed installation, sanctuary use)

Unit works exactly as expected

I used this device to control several electric things like ordinary lights, a motor, a fog machine. Propably you should know a little bit about how electricity works before connecting anything to this device. I have no idea what would happen to eg. a fog machine if you dim power down.

The only thing which I don't like is it's weight. The pro-side of this is that I do not have to take care about placement. The unit seems very robust.

Klein beetje rare bediening

De dimmer doet wat het beloofd.

Alleen de bediening was eventjes zoeken zelfs met de handleiding er bij. De M10 schroefdraad maakt dat we deze gemakkelijk in de buurt van onze PAR kans kunnen hangen.

Does its job

Works fine by dmx. The user interface is straight from satan through, if you aren't some sort of genius with a photographic memory, of course. Only buy if you are going to use it by dmx, and even that could prove impossible without a manual to set it to dmx mode

very good choice

It is an affortable Dimmer, BUT. It has 1.5 mm2 cable for power input, and it should have 2.5 mm2. So if you use the maximum output (16A) for over 20-30' the cable will heat up.., Hope that Stairville will fix that

Best value for money

Used it for several years in any condition and never had a problem.

My only issue is about the menu function which is rather difficult.

Amazing Dimmer Pack

Given it's cost and size the Stairville DDS 405 is by far the best low budget DMX Dimmer (of this scale) we have every worked with. It doesn't bring the well known noise on any speakers while it can be mounted on any truss of stand or even be hidden anywhere. That was a good choice.
