Dimmer 2 not reporting usage power when below 2,5w

  • None of my Shelly Dimmer 2 report usage when lights are dimmed and power falls below (+/-) 2,5w. Above is fine, below is not. Lights are burning then, dimmed, but still at considerable strength like >30%

    I'm using led lights everywhere

    Dimmer 1 has no problem with lights at low strength and reporting even below 0,1w depending on the amount of lights and dimsetting. When I use a Dimmer 1 on the same light as dimmer 2 it has no problem reporting below 2,5w

    I have asked this on other forums, facebook Shelly support group, several times and never even had a response once....

    Trying my luck here :)

  • Hi, it looks I am experiencing the same. I made bars to check how much various bulbs/leds consume when switched on and three dimmers dont show at all, which is probably due to the LED lights used there but I dont think they take less than 2,5W.

    However, when I checked on other bulbs, the bars shows just when I cross 2,5W. Have you solved it?

  • Hey, so solved very quickly. I checked the lamp. It is 7W but supports TRAILING EDGE dimming. There are two options, trailing and leading edge, it's the way how the dimmer cuts sinus curve to produce the impression of dimming. Leading edge does not report power consumption, to me, in home assistant.
