Hmmm...well, I've just installed my first ALC dimmer and aux switches, and it has gone...interesting.
There's a couple issues I've run into:
1) My gang boxes are plenty deep enough. However, I failed to account for them being wide enough. For whatever reason, the gang boxes they used in my house have an indentation on one side of the box...no more than a 1/4 inch, probably. However, that is enough to thwart trying to put a dimmer and aux switch next to each other. Since the width of the ALC stuff seems to be pretty standard, I'd wager the same issue will arise, no matter what I put next to each other. So, I had to take some wire cutters and "mod" the gang box to get the indentation to not be an obstacle. This is kind of annoying, as there can't be any electrical reason for the aux switch to be as large as it is...I'm just guessing it was a cost-savings effort to use the same pieces for all switches.
2) I noticed a buzzing coming from the lights at some of the dimmer light settings. I have no idea if that's normal or expected. I can't put it down as "annoying" at all....but I did notice it. It'd be a shame if it keeps me from using some of the very low light settings for, say, moving watching once I install the dimmer for our greatroom lights.
3) Where I had removed one of the 3-way switches, I put an aux switch. It shares the box with another, normal toggle switch. However, when I went to put on the switch plate cover (one normal and one decora opening), it was warped looking. It turns out the low voltage wires that cross in front of the metal part of the switch and then exit the box above the switch were what was causing the cover to bulge slightly. I don't know if this was just a result of the type of cover plate it was, or what.
Anyway, I'm pleased that the dimmer works, and actually hooking it up to the network will be next.
