I have 2 of these controlling 2 light strings and they work perfect. They only have one type of remote and it sets both dimmers the same. You can't have separate light strings set to different levels. However, they sometimes have an issue with a different dimmer that is used to set a different level on a third light string. When the third string is set to a different level, one or both types of dimmers, sometimes start acting erratically. They flash or won't respond. This doesn't happen very often, so I live with it. Something I like is that when it's turned on with the remote, it returns to the dimming level it was at when it was turned off, either with the remote or disconnected from commercial power. The only thing I wish it would do, is if it was ON when commercial power is turned off then on, it would return to ON. Sadly, it defaults to OFF and can only be turned on with the remote. Anyway, it works and I'm happy.
