MELVILLE, N.Y., Dec. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Leviton today announced that its LED Compatibility Selector Tool has been added as a feature to the popular Leviton2Go app. The tool is designed to provide customers with a fast and easy way to select the best dimmer and bulb combinations directly at the point of purchase in stores, at distribution centers or on jobsites by simply scanning the barcode of the dimmer or bulb.

Recognizing that LEDs have become the standard when shopping for and installing new or replacement light bulbs and fixtures, it is increasingly important for consumers and contractors to ensure that the dimmers and LED bulbs selected are compatible for optimal performance when used together.

To ensure the reliability of the tool, Leviton has an ongoing program working with bulb and fixture manufacturers to test and evaluate LED bulbs and fixtures for compatibility with Leviton LED dimmers. The test program identifies the best performing bulbs as well as those that may on occasion exhibit any irregular functionality, such as flickering or limited dimming range. This information helps customers successfully pair Leviton dimmers and LED bulbs that will achieve the best performance.

"The integration of the LED Compatibility Selector Tool into the Leviton2Go app reflects Leviton's ongoing commitment to bring the convenience of technology to our valued customers," said Tom Babich, product manager, Leviton Lighting Controls, Residential. "By providing an easy, intuitive and accessible way to assist customers with their dimmer and bulb compatibility questions, we're eliminating uncertainty and offering a solution for achieving the best dimming experience for homes or businesses."

The Leviton2Go app also allows users to search through over 25,000 Leviton products, utilize its competitor cross reference tool, view installation videos and downloadable PDFs, get instant Leviton news notifications and more. Once registered on the app, users can customize their experience based on their unique business interests.

Leviton mobile apps are FREE and available to download via the Apple App Store and Google Play.
