can you use led bulbs with a dimmer for this chandalier?

I used regular bulbs......led dimmers were too expensive; therefore, I haven't tried.

As long as the LED bulb is dimmer-compatible, this will work fine. The chandelier is just an ordinary light-bulb socket with an attachment wire.

I don't think it's possible to do what you want there...but keep in mind I'm no electrician. What I'm thinking you're describing is basically a light that has it's own control to half the power. The light switch simply sends the power to the unit or does not (when it's off). To the best of my knowledge, the only switch that could even come close to what you want is a dimmer type switch but as you may or may not know many "lighting appliances" warn that a dimmer switch cannot/should not be used with them. Even if it was ok, it would not instantly cut the power in half, you would have to approximate half if half was important to you, if it's simply dimming that would be nice to you...I would suggest checking the chandelier's installation instructions and see if they emphatically state that you cannot use a dimmer switch with it.

yes on the dimmer,have not tried led bulbs. Not a true fish-eye socket, but on flat ceiling can be adjusted to angle or spot. Good for the price

I have reg. bulbs with a dimmer on my lamp. My electrician said I would need a different dimmer switch to use with LED bulbs.

Yes. This fixture takes a standard bulb. I have them on a dimmer switch with LED bulbs but have had standard bulbs and flourescent bulbs in them also.

It is the bulb not the fixture that makes it dimmer compatible. So if you use standard bulbs this is fixture can be used with a dimmer. The low energy florescent bulbs are usually the problem with dimmers. What is great about this fixture is you can use high wattage bulbs. I use phillips low energy standard bulbs that are about 50 watts but output about 2500 lumens which is about a 100 watt bulb. Multiply that by three and you have one very bright fixture if needed. Good luck

I have never tried these with a dimmer but I do know that LEDs don't work with Dimmers

Yes you can. LED lights may not work with this dimmer, but regular incandescent lights will. Just remember that if you want to fade the lights, to set dipswitch 11 and 12 to the ON position (off for switching mode)

I have LED bulbs in the fan now. I do not have them set up on a dimmer but that should not be a problem either.

Yes, you can use a dimmer if you get one that is rated for led such as lutron. I would purchase from an electrical supply house to ensure you are sold the proper dimmer.

I use mine with 3 LED bulbs that are labeled ok for dimming and the Lighten UP 308 works perfectly with them.

yes I am using leds in mine. Just be sure to purchase ones that state they are dimmable. Unit works great no issues

Yes. I believe this dimmer is suitable for led bulbs and should definitely allow the brightness of those bulbs to be adjusted lower.

Yes you can use led light bulbs with this provided they are standard light bulb sockets. I use led as well.

Yes you can. We recommend a BR30 or PAR30 LED. Please verify dimmer compatibility with the LED lamp.
