First time posting in this forum...Have a quick question.

Where can I buy router speed controls for work lights? I watched a video by Mark Apsolon and he turned work lights into variable lights by using a router speed control. I just bought 5 sets of work lights to light a greenscreen and need to find out where I can buy this device.
How much do they normally cost as well?

Thank you!!!!

You can normally find them in places like Lowes or Home Depot however sometimes you may have to buy them from their website.
I suggest buying one controller per light so you don't overload the dimmer/controller.

HF is selling them for $20 a piece which will handle 15 amps (1800 watts)

Amazon has a 20 amp, (2400 watts) controller as well which should be good for two lights:
