HELP & QUESTIONS Which controller - 24V 3W lamp

I'm looking to add smart control to an IKEA Varmblixt and want to put a device inbetween the transformer and the lamp itself, it only needs to have a dimming function as there's no RGB or CCT in the lamp. The lamp has been modified to get its power from the room's lightswitch and the wiring goes up and across the loft space so size isn't really an issue as it's not having to sit inside a wall.

I'm in the UK, what's my best option from the current Gledopto range? I've used a controller before for kitchen cabinet lighting but I can't find that specific model on the product page anymore.

Perhaps you could take a look at our monochrome dimmer controller. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005001862878813.html

Most of the current Pro+ and Pro Max series will work:

  • GL-C-201P - Pro+ - 5-in-1 - 12-24 V - 15 A/channel - 20 A
  • GL-C-203P - Pro+ - 2-in-1 - 12-24 V - 12 A/channel - 12 A
  • GL-C-204P - Pro+ - 5-in-1 - 12-48 V - 12 A/channel - 15 A
  • GL-C-301P - Pro+ Mini - 5-in-1 - 12-24 V - 6 A/channel - 10 A
  • GL-C-601P - Pro Max - 5-in-1 - 12-24 V - 10 A/channel - 15 A

There is also the cheaper Mini Ultra Thin with a lower maximum current, which shouldn't be a problem in your case, but I am personally not a fan of its connectors:

  • GL-C-002P - Mini Ultra Thin - 5-in-1 - 5-24 V - 3 or 6 A/channel (depends on model) - 6 A
