About rheostats/dimmer switches:

Most, if not all, of the 3-position dimmer switches are useless and fall into the category of burning up the energy instead of reducing it.



Most, if not all, rotary dimmer switches that are rated for 600 watts act as a rheostat. These are usually the most common.



I just felt that I should post this info since you mentioned it, so the original poster would know.



Catch ya later!
