Hi Hobey,
   I haven't worked much with LED lights and I don't know if this 
approach will work for you, but I have noticed that some LED lights are 
dimmed and brightened by having lights in a series. Dim is, say, 3 
lights, medium is 6, bright is 9, or whatever your stage requires. Not 
exactly the same effect, but if you work it sort of like a 3 way bulb 
you could perhaps place 3 lights next to each other at each light 
location, then light one, two, or all three as needed. If they come in 
different intensities you could do the same with only two of different 
"wattages" (not the correct term for LED, I'm sure) by lighting one, 
the other, or both.
   Just a possible work around solution.
