Lighting Dimmers

All prices shown include delivery to UK destinations

Birdroom Lighting Dimmers simulate sunrise and sunset mimicking natural conditions by brightening up over 30 seconds. This avoids startling the birds when they may panic and fly into the side of their cage.

On turning off, the lamps will dim over 30 minutes to allow your birds a last feed and time to reach their roosting positions.

The time clock models also allow you to extend the light period to induce breeding and early moulting.

They are easy to install and are all fitted with a 2 metre input cable and plug.

Birdroom dimmers are manufactured in our own workshops so we can offer full-after sales service backed by a one-year guarantee.

In the fight to combat Global Warming eventually the ordinary tungsten filament lamp will be phased out, in its place we have the halogen equivalent which give a longer life, a crisper more efficient light, is fully interchangeable and of course you can dim it, unlike the energy saving compact fluorescent (CFL).
