Will the dimmer socket work with a 15 watt mains fan (to slow it down)?

I am not sure about that. I would not risk it. I heard that the motor got burnt because of using dimmer for lights. It might cause fire as well. I research it and I found some useful comments about it.dmxtothemax says: 'You will need a proper fan speed controller,Normal light dimmers are not intended to control fan motors,Electronic fan speed controllers are readily available.I am not sure if lamps can be put on these,electronic speed controllers.So perhaps you might need a separate line for the light.'hyunelan2 says: 'The reason you don't want to use a regular dimmer switch with a ceiling fan, is that the dimmer reduces the power to the fan motor - making it hard for the motor to work. This will lead to shortened fan motor life, a humming noise, and at worse-case - possibility of fire.'

I have a 50w tubular heater, would this work if i plugged it in to reduce the heat?

I also have a tubular heater ( but 80watt) , and I use a plug in timer ( so many hours on ,then so many hours off) and seems to work fine.

Does this product have the CE mark on it?

Hello. YES there is a CE printed on the label.

Would this work with a led twig tree? It as different setting modes but is just to bright.

No it won’t. You need dimmable bulbs as well as the switch..
