Rob knows what he is talking about.
He assumed you to extrapolate from this that one of each of the black wires from the marrette on the right go to each dimmer and the black wire from each of the middle 2 wires goes to a their own dimmer.
If you hook it up the way you describe in your video best case your lights will not come on. Worst case you will fry one of the dimmers, electrocute yourself or burn down your house. But hey we are all gamblers right?
Where do you live? A ton of people could help you with this. If it means saving your life I'll jump in my car to hook this up for you. I am not an electrician but I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express once.
Question for Rob: if you have one dimmer switched on is it possible for power to flow back through the neutral wire to the light that is switched off if you inadvertently grounded it? I doubt that is possible but curious if that might cause a shock.
