Needed 22 dimmers for a job I am doing and decided to see if I could save some money so I went to Amazon to order some rated for CFL/LED/Incandescent.

what is the real difference between the Lutron TGCL and the Lutron AYCL?

TGCL http://www.amazon.com/Lutron-TGCL-153PH-WH-Toggler-Single-Pole-Toggle/dp/B0052EC160/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388338811&sr=8-2&keywords=lutron+toggle+dimmer

AYCL http://www.amazon.com/Lutron-AYCL-153P-WH-Ariadni-Incandescent-Single-Pole/dp/B006UTQCA2/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1388338811&sr=8-10&keywords=lutron+toggle+dimmer

The TGCL says CFL/LED but when you go to the product description it says its compatible with incandescent and halogen as well, but doesn't list a max wattage for either bulb type.

The AYCL is listed for CFL/LED/Incandescent/Halogen and it lists 150 watt for CFL/LED and 600 watt for incandescent/halogen.

I ordered the AYCL because that's what I normally use but I really want to know what the difference really is between the TGCL and the AYCL.

Am I missing something obvious?

I'm pretty sure the Toggler is the brand name they sell in retail stores only, while Ariadni is sold in wholesalers. Otherwise, I have not been able to figure out the slightest difference between them.

TGCL is the same as AYCL, but TGCL is manufactured for big orange.

Those dimmers are frickin ugly.. at least put Diva's in!
