dim2warm® – warm light when dimming
dim2warm® by prebit combines dimming with a visibly warmer light colour, typically from 3000 K to 2200 K.
dim2warm®
dim2warm® by prebit combines dimming with a visibly warmer light colour, typically from 3000 K to 2200 K.
dim2warm® is a lighting technology for suitable prebit luminaires. When dimmed, brightness is reduced and the light color changes within prebit's typical range from 3000 K to 2200 K.
At high brightness the light appears clearer and brighter. When the luminaire is dimmed, the light becomes progressively warmer. This produces a comfortable, atmospheric illumination suitable for maritime applications and high-quality residential environments.
How does dim2warm® work?
dim2warm® combines brightness dimming with a change in light colour. As the luminaire is dimmed, the colour temperature gradually shifts from warm white 3000 K to an especially warm 2200 K.
At higher brightness levels the light remains clear and pleasant. As the light is dimmed, the atmosphere becomes warmer and more comfortable, similar to the familiar behaviour of traditional incandescent and halogen lamps.
Benefits
Clearer light effect at high brightness
Progressively warmer color temperature when dimmed
Supports a cozy, atmospheric lighting ambiance
What is dim2warm®?
Conventional LED dimming mainly changes brightness. dim2warm® also changes the light colour while dimming: clear at higher brightness and visibly warmer at lower brightness.
In suitable prebit dim2warm® luminaires, the colour temperature typically shifts from 3000 K to 2200 K. This supports lighting moods for yachts, premium living spaces and architectural lighting.
3000 K → 2200 K
The visualisation shows the principle without fixed dimming percentages: the further the luminaire is dimmed, the warmer the light colour becomes.
Conventional LED dimming compared with dim2warm®
Conventional LED dimming
- Brightness changes
- Colour temperature remains largely constant
dim2warm®
- Brightness is reduced
- the light colour becomes warmer at the same time
- the lighting mood changes visibly
Light that becomes warmer with the mood
Warmer light at lower brightness is perceived as pleasant and atmospheric. dim2warm® supports exactly this effect: the light does not only become darker, it also becomes more comfortable.
dim2warm® for yacht lighting
On board, luminaires need to be functional, robust and atmospheric at the same time. dim2warm® supports this balance because one luminaire can provide clear light and warm evening ambience.
Atmospheric light for living and architectural spaces
In premium living and architectural spaces, dim2warm® supports the transition from functional light to a warm, comfortable atmosphere. This allows lighting moods to be adapted flexibly to use, time of day and the character of the room.
dim2warm® or Tunable White?
dim2warm® automatically changes the colour temperature together with the brightness. The further the luminaire is dimmed, the warmer the light becomes.
Tunable White, by contrast, allows the colour temperature to be adjusted independently of the brightness. Both technologies offer different possibilities for creating individual lighting scenes and applications.

FAQ
What does dim2warm® mean?
dim2warm® describes a prebit technology in which dimming changes not only brightness but also the light colour.
How does dim2warm® work?
When the light is dimmed, not only the brightness is reduced. At the same time, the colour temperature gradually changes from 3000 K to 2200 K, creating a visibly warmer and more atmospheric light.
Which colour temperature does dim2warm® use?
For suitable prebit dim2warm® luminaires, the typical range is 3000 K to 2200 K.
What is the difference between normal dimming and dim2warm®?
Normal dimming mainly changes brightness. dim2warm® also changes the light colour and makes it warmer when dimmed.
What is the difference between dim2warm® and Tunable White?
dim2warm® is linked to the dimming process. Tunable White usually describes a separately controllable colour temperature setting.
Which prebit luminaires are available with dim2warm®?
dim2warm® is available for numerous prebit luminaires. The currently available models can be found in the “Luminaires with dim2warm®” section on this page and on the individual product pages.
Is dim2warm® suitable for yacht lighting?
Yes, dim2warm® is especially suitable for yacht lighting because clear functional light and warm lighting moods are both needed on board.
Can dim2warm® be integrated into existing lighting controls?
Integration depends on the luminaire, control system and project requirements and should be checked for each project.
