Can I lower the minimum brightness setting? I'd like my Philips A19 LED bulbs a little dimmer in the bathroom for a night light effect.

While this is a very satisfactory unit for dimming the led bulbs I have it does not bring the light output down to that of the typical "night light"

The Leviton switch has a fixed dimming range that is independent of the bulb. So it is what it is, sorry.

yes, it works fine, I have installed 4 of these and all with LED bulbs - very satisfied

The dimmer has a way of lowering the minimum brightness setting. If you read the instructions, it is under the "Setting Minimum Light Level (Programming mode)" in the "Operation" section. That said, when I tried doing it, it didn't bring the brightness level down below the default setting. So, maybe you can bring it up, but not down further than the default. We ended up putting lower lumen bulbs in one room where I wanted the minimum brightness to be lower.

As the other guy said, yes - you can *modify* the brightness range. Whether you can actually lower it from the default range may depend.

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

I have dimmers on all my LED lights, so I would find out if these lights bulbs are dimmable. If they are this is the right switch. Just remember some bulbs are not rated as being dimmable. This dimmer will work on Florissant lights if they are rated as dimmable and also with regular incandescent lights. There is a slide on the switch which you can be set to use switch just for dimmable Florissant lights. The with the instructions that come with it you won't have any problems installing it.

The minimum brightness of this item is quite dim, though brighter than a nightlight, but cannot be adjusted downwards. The Lutron MACL-153M-WH allows you to do this, though if you go too far downwards there may be instability issues. I note that my Leviton 6674-POW went bad after two weeks, maybe because we have an extra steamy bathroom. I've replaced it with the aforementioned Lutron, and adjusted the Lutron to achieve a dimmest level that is pretty close to night light level, using two Kobi Electric K8L2 8-watt G25 LED bulbs.

This bulb provides general low lighting (equivalent to a 30 or possibly 40 watt incandescent bulb). It's in the corner of our small TV room. On the darker color settings, it still provides sufficient light to navigate. On the lighter colors (yellow, orange, and white) it provides general low lighting. In my opinion, the bulb would be too bright for a nightlight even on the lowest setting (except perhaps in a hallway, for nighttime navigation).

Any home improvement store. Another option would be to install led light bulbs with a high lumen count. This would allow for more light with less wattage

The brightness can be adjusted from dim to bright..and it also depends on the watt of the light bulbs, i'm sure. I am using standard chandelier bulbs. I use it in my livingroom in my 1 bedroom apt. And it lights the entire room from a corner.

Yes you can dim the brightness of the lamp, this is one of my favorite features!

I have not tried that due to comparability issues withj fixtures inside my home with similar bulbs. I would ask Philips. This fixture can dim when there's no motion and that feature may not work right with the bulb

These aren't very dimmable... they dim in stages... but, then they flicker at anything too low.

I haven't tried dimming the ones I have. I looked up LED lamps to see if they are dimmable. It appears some are. I can't say for sure about this one. I love the ones I have. Very crisp white light, using minimum power. :)

Yes, but their so low light you wouldn't want them on anything but high. Mines in a touch lamp right now. Kinda annoying, having to touch it three times to get a usable light. I feel like I'm OCD.

You can dim the brightness. I for as I know there is no way to change the color of the display.

Are they CFL light bulbs? I heard, but don't know for sure, that they may not be able to be dimmed. I'm probably all wet. My Lutron works GREAT and I love it. So sorry for your woes.

Hard question to answer with any authority, as it depends on if the LED bulbs themselves are dimmable... but the short answer is yet. Now, with that said, be aware that LED's generally go from 0% brightness to 15-20% brightness in the first step... just the way they are made I guess.. but once turned on, they can be dimmed to very low light levels..

The lowest setting of dim is pretty soft. Perfect for that ideal ambiance when entertaining guest. I have a set under my entertainment console in the sitting room.

We thought of trying a dimmer switch, but my husband wasn't sure the bulbs it uses would work for that. Would be real nice to be able to dim this beautiful light. Good Luck!

Not dimmable. You can put a smaller watt bulb in so that it's not as bright, however.

You really need a dimmer that is made for cfl and led bulbs. This one might work but it will flutter on low .

Like previous answer, the point is to have the light on. However you can make it quote dim. I usually turn the brightness down a notch or two anyway.
