Default Harmony One Remote Lighting/ LED lighting help

I have the Harmony One remote and was wondering what I needed to buy to get it to control the lighting in my basement/led lights I have behind my tv. Thank you!

You can plug your lights into your receiver so that they go on and off when your receiver does. Led lights dont draw very much power.

Did a little more research and was wondering if it was correct if I used this

Any help would be great, thanks.

I use one of these for the lights in my adjacent dining room. As long as you can point your remote at it they work fantastic. They are cheap, easy to install and harmony lists them on their website so the codes can be downloaded to your remote. They also have several programable "favourites" settings (low light, medium, etc). Before my Harmony One got damaged I had it set up so that when I pressed the "Watch Movie" button the lights would slowly fade and then go out off and when I pressed pause they would light up slightly.

So just to get this straight because I am not familar with lights, I would buy what you had in the link for each swtich I have? Then if I understand this correctly, I download the inputs into my Harmony remote, and I'm all set? Thanks for the help everybody!

Yes. It is just like replacing your regular light switch with a dimmer, this one just happens to be remote controlled. I have them in my dining room and in my master bedroom.

+1. That is the same one that use for the room of my system. Very cheap and easy to install. It works great if you can point the remote to it. I've seen them at my local home depot that makes the same ones in black and off-white as well. IMO, any room that houses a projector can use one of these dimmer switches, gets a lot of "wow" factor when you remote the room to dim hehe.
