Hi Kirk:
I had a look at that dimmer. It seems totally incompatible with the illuminator I received with my polar scope. Mine is totally self-contained and powered by two LR-41 watch batteries. There is no external battery pack and no wire whatsoever, so it will not plug into the dimmer. It seems a more elegant solution in that there is no battery pack to find a place for and no additional wires to flop about. But as for dimming it . . .well, I think that not practical with the kind of unit I received. It does have an on/off switch . . . if I can just remember the "off" part. :) I could do a picture and supply a link if that would help.

good idea, as I have other illuminated optical devices and always have
issues with them being too bright. It's only $30...and compared to what
I am already spending, a drop in the bucket. [;)]
