Premium LED+ Dimmer with Intelligent Night Mode Technology

The Lutron Diva LED+ Dimmer with Night Mode (DVCLN-153P-WH) is a premium 3-way dimmer designed for LED, incandescent, halogen, and dimmable CFL bulbs. This advanced dimmer features an intelligent Night Mode that automatically adjusts ambient lighting—rising gently to ON and fading to OFF more softly when it's dark than during the day, reducing nighttime eye strain. The soft-glow light bar makes the dimmer easy to locate in low light conditions.

Key Features and Benefits

Night Mode transforms your lighting experience by adapting to natural light conditions. Choose from three sensitivity settings (High, Medium, or Low) to match your room's natural light levels. The gentle rise-to-on feature protects your eyes during nighttime use, while the slower fade-to-off gives you extra time to leave the room safely. The LED+ technology ensures flicker-free dimming across multiple bulb types, eliminating the frustration of incompatible dimmers and creating a comfortable, professional lighting environment.

How It Works

  • Night Mode Operation: Automatically senses ambient light and adjusts fade rates—gentle rise when dark, normal operation during daylight
  • Three Sensitivity Settings: High (ideal for rooms with lots of natural light), Medium (rooms with moderate natural light), or Low/default (rooms without natural light)
  • Simple Controls: Slide to adjust light level, tap top for ON (full brightness), tap bottom for OFF, press and hold bottom for delayed fade-to-off
  • Easy Programming: Access Night Mode settings via the Front Accessible Service Switch (FASS)—no tools required
  • Wide Compatibility: Works with up to 150W dimmable LED/CFL or 600W incandescent/halogen loads
  • No Neutral Required: Installs with existing 2-wire wiring in most applications

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use any dimmer switch with LED bulbs?

No. You must use a dedicated LED dimmer switch. Older dimmers designed for incandescent bulbs have high minimum load requirements that LEDs cannot meet, often resulting in flickering or "ghosting."

What is a TRIAC dimmer?

A Triac dimmer (or forward-phase dimmer) is the standard residential control. It works by "chopping" the front part of the AC sine wave to reduce power. Most dimmer switches for LED lights are advanced versions of TRIAC technology.

Why do I need an MLV dimmer?

You need an MLV dimmer if your lighting fixture uses a magnetic transformer. Using a standard LED dimmer on a magnetic load can cause the transformer to overheat and eventually fail.

What is the difference between a slide and touch dimmer?

A slide dimmer uses a physical moving part to set the light level. A touch dimmer, like the Lutron Sunnata, uses a digital interface with no moving parts, offering a sleeker look and often a "soft" fade-on/fade-off effect.

Do I need a neutral wire for a dimmer switch?

Many modern smart dimmer models require a neutral wire (white) to power their internal electronics. However, many standard mechanical dimmers do not. Always check the wiring in your wall box before purchasing.
