Know what a dimmer is on a light fixture? You’ve seen them hundreds of times. It’s a device that allows you to adjust the brightness of a bulb (also known as a lamp, but we’ll get to that at another time). For years the most common was that round dial kind, but now there are all sorts of dimmers available… sliders, toggles, etc. These will all be addressed in the future. Fun with rheostats!
