The proper switch is the soon to be released on/off switch. You cannot use the dimmer with a light fixture that has a ballast.
Even in the on/off mode, the dimmer is still a dimmer. For this application and the exhaust fan that you asked about in another post, you need a true relay based on/off switch. However for the exhaust fan, you can also use the fan switch, although that is probably overkill for an exhaust fan.
