I would assume so. It just provides power to your fixture, so if your fixture can do CFL, then you should be fine.

it is just a switch. As long as you are not going over 15 amps, it will work with anything. If you are turning on something over 15 amps. the you will need a heaver duty switch that is made for higher amperage. In a household environment, a single light is rarely over 15 amps. You can tell by the size of the wire on the light. if it is 14 gauge, it is 15 amps. If it is 12 gauge or larger, then you will need a heavy duty switch.

Yes, I have 10 cfl's hooked up on one of these. It also works with the 3 individual exterior wall lights with LED's bulbs. It doesn't matter what bulb you use as long as the voltage is the same.

Yes - of course it depends what kind of light bulb you put in it. I have 3 LED bulbs that work great on a dimmer. CFLs will not work as we'll.

Yes Cheryl it will work with CFL bulbs. I have two lamps on one remote outlet one of the lamps has a standard bulb and the other has a CFL and the remote works flawlessly, I would't want to be without my wireless remote control!

Yes this is designed for incandescent lights & halogen lights are a high efficiency incandescent light. Will not work properly with CFL but may work with LED depending on the particular bulb.

This switch works with a fluorescent overhead light fixture that uses a balast (i.e. four ft fluorescent ceiling fixture in a garage or laundry room)I expect it will not work for CFL bulb that is not designed for use with dimmers.

It also didn't work with an LED bulb I tried. All it did was Dim the bulb. The bulb I tried was not dimmable. Wondering if a Dimmable LED bulb would work. I tried 3 different brands of CFLs and one of them did work without flickering. The CFL bulb that worked was a 7 watt Greenlite which I received from my electric company.

This particular model is only supposed to work with incandescent bulbs. Mine worked fine with CFL's for couple of years and then it stopped working. Screen works fine but it doesn't turn the lights on anymore.

I would assume it would work with any bulbs you wanted. Check to make sure the wattage does not exceed.

I don't know for sure. But I have used it with 4x 85w CFL bulbs with no problems. Hope that helps.

The CFL/LED designation means it will work with low watt lamps, regardless of the lamp base. There should be no problems.

I have not tried CFL's, but I don't see why not. It works in a normal 110-120 volt line.

It will work and dim with any bulb but will not dim with CFL bulbs. They sell their own LED bulb that does not need a switch or module to control it.

Yes, but I found that it works better with LEDs. This is just the control panel, but the opener that it pairs with holds two bulbs and one of them would keep turning off when I used CFL's. When I changed them to LED's the problem stopped. The problem might have just been a loose connection, don't know, but it works great with LED's.

I use the dimmers with LED lights, but according to the manufacturer, they're supposed to work with CFLs as well.

yes it should work well especially is the bulbs are standard bulbs. The only small issue I have found Is when using on a CFL bulb when you turn the switch completely off the light will still occasionally flicker at a very low light. It is not a huge issue. When using standard bulbs this is not a problem.

This latern supports CFL bulbs. I use a very bright one to light up the night and it has been working great.
