Dimmable LED

It actually sounds like the drivers. Depending on the driver used, the minimum illumination level is typically 10% as the driver behaviour becomes non-linear below 10%. Few drivers actually dim all the way to zero.

So, nothing is wrong. It's just the nature of the beast.

Never thought of the drivers, could be that too.

So does that mean driver built into complete module or are they seperate ? Or every manufacturer is different ?
I'd be happy if they could do 10%

Oh , with no 10% & no 5% that means no moonlights approx. 7 days a month !!!

What brand of LEDs are they & maybe a pic so we know what your dealing with.

My SOL does the same thing with the moon phases, some days you can hardly see them on.

The light is made by Twilight Group Co.
What do you want to see a pic of the housing top & bottom or the moonlights not lit up ??? Lol

Finally got an answer from the manufacturer : they said the moonlights don't work below 15% . So I asked if it's possible to reprogram . No answer yet , unless someone here might know ???
