4 channel dimmer.

ritual · Post Fri Jul 03, 2020 3:26 pm

I was thinking of adding 4 different dimmable lights and was going to use 4 channel relay software, but as i was browsing through forums i stumbled across a dimmable software, but unfortunately it was only one channel. I don't know if it possible or not to make 4 channel dimmable module as i have almost zero experience in software section, but if we can make rgbw, it is essentially 4 channel dimmer but without individual control we might aswell be able to make it. It would be great if anybody can help me with this.
Thank you

in principle there is no problem with 4 PWM "Dimmer".
Do you have any specific hardware in mind?

I was thinking of flashing it in generic esp8266 like wemos or nodemcu and connection with led through triac or transistor with some resistor in middle.
What would you suggest?
