I want a dimmer to dim about 300-500 watts of incandescent lighting, and I think I could probably make something a lot cheaper than I could buy it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't just buy a dimmer switch, a wall box, and a face plate from the hardware store, then cut an extension cord in half and wire it into the switch?
In case it's not obvious, this is to be an inline dimmer, not an in-wall dimmer.
