Hi everyone,
I ordered this touch dimmer from China. (ET0802193E) However, i can't get the thing to work. I wired it but the light doesn't turn on. I'm using a halogen lamp. When i tried a led lamp it started blinking about once a second so i guess the circuit is fine. Any suggestions?

It can work with an halogen light. What's the lamp's power that you're using? And what's the dimmer's capacity?
Can you post the dimmer's manual?

Your dimmer is probably defective. It's very strange for me that it's unable to power up such a low power lamp. Its being halogen or not has nothing to do with it. As long as it's the incandecent type (filament type, and not fluorescent, for example) it should work.

Does it come with a wiring diagram?

I hope i didn't blow it up either
I wired it the same as a lamp i already had (store bought). I'm thinking of just taking that one apart because I'm not using it and i know for sure it works.
