How To Pair With Lights & Can I use Two?ThomasFirst I found that the pairing instructions were incorrect. What worked for me was this. I held down the pairing button next to the light bulb and waited for the light bulb to start dimming. Once it started dimming I know it was paired. NEXT: I do not know the answer to the following question, if anyone does, please leave a review with the answer. Can I use two Rodets to control the same set of lights? Thanks4
Not compatibleMaryDid not work as promised.1
Great little light switch/dimmerKristieI’ve had this light switch for a year. I have been looking periodically for components that match it. As per usual, IKEA is baffling and its directions and in store service. I don’t know why they don’t put. supplemental instructions online. There’s a helpful review below that will give you instructions. 5
HelpfulBrennyI like the dimmer, easy to set up. But not as responsive as I would like it to be. It does the job;convenient size4
Easy to use switchMichaelNice that switch can be placed anywhere. Holding buttons down dims or brightens where a quick tap turns on or off.5
Nice power switchRobLooks modern… pretty easy to install… easy to use.5
One in kitchen, one in bathroom.BrentIt’s a very high-quality remote that works every single time you press the button. It was easy to match with the lights and seems to have no issues. Thank you for a great product.5
does not work properlyOliverif the power goes out and comes back on....the lights are on. the ikea system is not up to date with this issue. my repeated phone calls were useless. i was sent more remotes and wireless controls. the techies have to look at this. zigbee is the magic word. ikea does not have it1
Died after eight monthsKyleIt worked fine for months. Recently, even after switching out the battery several times, it just died and no longer functions. Less than a year lifespan. I have two of the older model that still function fine. This is not an upgrade.1
Thought it was dead, but you have to put driver into sync mode firstIanThis may be long but is a simple detail review covering gaps in instructions and good Youtube videos online are hard to find.
I used this Tradfi (power driver), Mittled (light strips), Rodret (wireless on/off switch), Ansluta (power cord), Vagdal (wiring).
I've done other installs with Ribbonflex stuff, chose this for my daughter's closet as it looked more simple. This was plug and play, make sure your led rating doesn't exceed your power supply rating, otherwise buy what I did.
Install was basic, figure out where you're securing the driver, wire cabling, led mounting and then go. The driver uses 1 power cable that is long with a toggle power switch, otherwise each led uses a single cable run to the driver unless you string the led units together to make a big led strip.
Biggest gap is the Rodret setup. What's missing..put battery in the Rodret unit, use pin on the sync button on the Tradfi driver and then hold sync button on Rodret while holding against driver.
Highly recommend5
Like everyone else- it came deadChrsNot working at all- totally nonfunctional1
Essential to my lifeMiaI have several of these through my house and I love them!5
With a clickMichaelAllows me to manage the lighting in the room from the convenience of my bed. And the dimmer allows my wife to sleep easier when getting ready early in the morning.5

Does Not Work - 0 starsJudithMultiple attempts and lengthy phone call with tech support. Inserted several batteries and even followed instructions from earlier reviews. "You get what you pay for" is an apt description of this cheap product. Even the tech support person could not help. 1
Good product, great price, DOES work with Home AssistantJamesI have five Rodret dimmers around my home and plan to add more in the future. I also have zero Ikea light bulbs or anything else from their ecosystem - all of my Rodrets (and one Somrig) are connected to a Zigbee bridge, which talks to my Home Assistant server. (Fellow HA nerds, I use a wired ZB-GW03 running Tasmota that I bought from that big "straight from China" eCommerce platform, in ZHA bridge mode.) They work great for that, highly recommended, especially for $8.5
Could never get it to connectBraedenI could never get it to connect to any of my lights. I had three different people try replaced the batteries. Made me using the lights in my closet difficult because the only way I could turn my lights off was by fully unplugging them. 1
Rodret ReviewKimberlyGood product works like advertised.5
