Description
The SD250MW is a smart Wi-Fi connected rotary LED dimmer module rated at 250W (trailing edge), designed as a direct retrofit for both new-build and renovation projects. It connects to your home's 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network without requiring a hub, bridge, or neutral wire — making it fully compatible with standard UK two-wire installations straight out of the box, with no rewiring needed.
Once connected, the module is controlled through the free Hamilton Lite app (iOS and Android), giving you on/off switching, dimming, scene setting and scheduling directly from your smartphone. For hands-free operation, the SD250MW works with both Amazon Alexa and Google Home, allowing you to control your lighting using simple voice commands.
Supplied as a module only — a compatible switch plate with rotary dimmer aperture and a minimum 35mm back box is required separately to complete the installation. Note: the switch plate must be connected to earth.
The SD250MW supports true multi-point dimming, allowing control from up to three switch positions on a single circuit. This makes it ideal for rooms with multiple entry points, staircases, or open-plan living spaces where lighting needs to be managed from more than one location. For dimming control from a second or third switch position — such as the top and bottom of stairs or two room entrances — a compatible companion controller is available separately.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Does the SD250MW require a neutral wire?
No. It works on a standard two-wire connection (live and switched live), compatible with the vast majority of UK homes without rewiring. Consult a qualified electrician if unsure about your existing wiring.
Can I use the SD250MW without the app?
Yes. The rotary knob works as a manual dimmer at all times regardless of Wi-Fi or app connectivity. The Hamilton Lite app (free, iOS and Android) adds scenes, scheduling and voice control but is not required for basic operation.
