can you use LED bulbs with or near this opener?

Yes. Good idea for unheated garage where CFL is dim when cold. Otherwise old incandescent bulbs are OK since usage is very low.

I am using CFL bulbs inside the opener. I don't see why LED bulbs wouldn't work as long as they fit inside physically.

I do not own any LED bulbs yet so I am unable to answer this question. I do use an have put in a spiral CFL bulb with no problems. Thanks.

Sure, but the lights are not on that long so it probably will never pay for itself.

Yes, it suggests using LED, but we are using the older type incandescent bulb.

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: LED bulbs can be used whereever incandescents can be used, including with dimming. It's CFLs you have to worry about. (CFLs do work in this fixture, by the way)

I am not sure. JMK's review of Nov. 25, 2013 mentions using led's. I use cfl's.

you can use a screw in LED bulb in the center (socket) but the perimeter bulb is florescent

Yes, you can use an LED bulb as long as it fits within the parameters. The info lists: E26; Watt - 25W (60W Max). That means the LED must use less than 60W (which is very easy, the are almost always very low wattage), and it must have a standard base. It won't look at pretty, but will still be functional.

Hello! I have to try to use LED bulbs.. but did not worked! Burned LED soon as I've installed... You must use with halogen bulbs.If you looking for LED.. do not buy this product! Thanks!

No :( It's a very specific, small halogon. It's not a normal size socket so you could not put an LED.

An LED bulb should be fine. But I am doubtful that it will work to reduce power to the Heath fixture.

Unfortunatly it's not possible because of the led lamp. Even My electrician couldn't find a work around

Yes,make sure the LED bulbs are dimmable. I use LED bulbs and dimmers with these all the time.

You cannot. It says so on the box, and I believe it. Although the LEDs themselves do not get hot and you can always grab the bulb part, the base gets very hot.

Of course you can since I've been using this bulb and it works just fine. http://www.amazon.com/Philips-431650-Personal-Wireless-Frustration/dp/B00BSN8DLG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395339249&sr=8-1&keywords=philips+hue+LED+bulbs

yes you can use the current bulbs. Please let me know if there is anything else i can do for you or if you have any questions. Sincerely, Shannon

I think that's going to depend on your circuit. The LED connections are separate from the switch connections, so you could just not use if if that were an issue. If you do need the indicator, it will be lit as long as there is power going to it.

You can but because if the fluctuation of the dynamo it will cause a shortness in the lifespan of the bulb the installation instruction advises NOT TO turn light on and off in short period of times so I would advise not to you'd be wasting your money

You can use LED BULBS however I'm not sure that there are 75w or 100w LED's on the market. You can definitely use the 60w LED's that are readily available but they might not provide enough light.
