I have 18 LEDs at 5w and 0.5 power factor. Would I be able to use the Dimmer 2 if were to use alongside the Bypass 2 or is the wattage too high? Based on the technical resources I think it would overload it but I have seen some responses to questions saying this number of bulbs should be fine. Z-Wave Fibaro Universal Dimmer 2

Hi Jack,
You can see here that with 0.5 power factor the Dimmer 2 quoted maximum load would be 100W - https://www.vesternet.com/resources/a...
That said, this isn't a hard and fast rule so we would always recommend experimenting with your LEDs with and without the Fibaro Dimmer Bypass 2 and hopefully you will get satisfactory results!
