A quick search on "LED load resistor" brought some auto parts store solutions, but all advise that they will heat up and not to install near plastic or paint, so they won't work.
What's interesting about this problem is that the half-bright condition only happens when the dinette light is on. When the dinette light is off, all are off.
What if I got a small resistor and put in series with the Intellitec switch? So when the LED lamp is operated by the wall switch there is no resistor in the circuit? But the switch loop going through the Intellitec would "see" a higher load?
