Does this actually have dimmer capability or would i need a 3- or 2- way bulb?

no dimmer capability. it takes a very small bulb so i don't know if you could put in a 2 or 3 way. it's not annoyingly bright but it is very good

It's a very simple lamp - on/off switch is the only control. I don't believe that it will accommodate a 3- way or 2-way bulb.

they have a off and on switch located on cord and I used 40 bulbs there are 3, and does not have dimmer or 3way light option just one setting. these lamps are designed for bedroom use and are very nice

The unit controls the power to the bulb. The dimming function will operate the same, albeit over the range selected by the lamp switch for the 3-way bulbs. For convenience, up to the power level of the dimmer (300 watts), it's more convenient to select the brightest light range of the bulb with the lamp switch, and then use the hand-held dimmer slide to set the illumination level desired over the whole range of the bulb. It is in fact a waste of money to use a three way bulb with the dimmer. Insted of a 50-100-150 watt bulb, for example, it is far more cost-effective to use a ('one-way') 150 watt bulb, that would then make available via the dimmer a semi-infinite number of light levels between zero (off) and 150 watts (full on) with one simple control.

Hi! Mine has 2 bulbs, and I LOVE it! Plenty bright enough for breakfast nook. We connected ours to a dimmer switch in an informal dining room and it is perfect!

No. As with most compact fluorescent bulbs you can't use on a dimmer or 3-way fixture

I purchased two kits approximately 2.5 years ago that did not include a dimmer. Since I'm using this for under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, I'm not sure I would have used a dimmer anyway.

If you are talking about these lamps, just tap the lamp and it has a 3-way bulb. If you are talking about a different light, you will need a dimmer switch in the wall like for a light hanging over your table.All I can tell you. These lamps worked great for me.

Correct, no Dimmer just on/off and a dimmer will not work with incandescent light, but with this it will!

You could use a three way bulb but I wouldn't or in other words u don't have to.Any watt u decide to use it will give u great lighting

I am not sure what a "mogul bulb" is- but a three way bulb offers several different wattages when the lamp switch is turned.The dimmer will dim the bulb in what ever wattage it is set at by the switch but it will not change the bulb wattage like the switch.With the dimmer there really is no need for a three way bulb. You can just buy the highest wattage bulb and dim that to your liking.So yes- it can be used with a three way bulb but it is not necessary to use a three way bulb.

You can put it in a 3-way light socket. However, it will only show one brightness level instead of three. When you turn the light switch, the LED bulb will go ON / ON / OFF / OFF, insteaed of LOW / MID / HIGH / OFF (like when you use a 3-way incandescent bulb).

It depends on the type of bulb you put in it.If you put an LED or incandescent bulb in it, it is dimmable.

I have bought two sets of these - my mother borrowed the first set and will not give them up. They were purchased years ago and had a 3-way switch and were a little better quality. They also cost twice as much. The newer set has a "twist" style switch that I thought was just on/off until i actually installed them. It is a dimmer! No 3-way bulbs, just a 100 watt. I bought a dimmable 100 watt LED bulb for it and it works fine.

There is no dimmer function but I am using to with 3 LED bulbs and it works just fine.

I am sure, its not possible to install a dimmer, it uses a fluorescent circular bulb, it won't dim.

Yes. A dimmer adjusts the voltage going to the bulb, so not dimmer, full power.

We use a three-way Bulb you would have to ask the manufacturer of the lamp about your other questions as I would not know that.
