I have a little situation where running a new wire is not possible.
My bathroom with 2 separate things sharing one wire, the lights and the vent fan. Long story short, I want to be able to dim the lights but the problem is it'll also affect the vent fan since they are sharing one line.
The solution is to use 2 dimmers and 1 on/off switch. One dimmer on the wall and a dimmer and the on/off switch at the split.
Getting the wall switch to toggle both to turn on/off is no issue with the help of a creative event. However, I'd like to be able to dim the lights from the wall switch. Can I associate the two dimmers to respond to each other as one? If I dim one the other dim etc..?
The wall switch will carry no load, it'll just be an used to control the other two.
