I used the control as a replacement in a Torchiere. You may need to cut the wires of the non-functional switch to remove it. I used wire nuts to connect the replacement switch to the line cord inside the lamp stem. I found that I had a difficult time installing the control nut to the control stem which is pushed through the stem. The threaded part of the replacement switch is just a bit too short.

Yes, it works! It is a very easy install. Took me 10 min start to finish. Works like the origina.

The Dimmer will replace most types, with only 2 wires it is an easy connection. The mounting hole may need to be enlarged if the old dimmer was of the smaller size, but an easy job with a drill, if needed at all. L

Yes this dimmer switch will work well. Pay strict attention to how you remove and be sure you replace the same direction you took it out.

I have used this dimmer on regular lighting and low voltage lighting. Never on a dimmable LED fixture. Buy the switch from a store that has a liberal return policy and try it out. Then of course let us know... Good luck!

This does not dim my FEIT BR40 LED bulbs. I just wrote to Feit asking for an explanation since there website list this dimmer as being compatible.-Update,I still have not heard back from FEIT. I tried to send them another email today. I also wrote to Lutron today as well. I'll update if/when I get a response.

Hi SH, I just installed the fan this weekend. I ended up replacing my original dimmer switch with a Lutron Fan/Light dimmer combined switch. It is a little pricey but works wonderful and gives much more control over the fan and lighting then the remote. I highly recommend it. Although the switch does not mention compatibility with LEDs, it does in fact work flawlessly with the LED in the fan. Lutron MA-LFQHW-WH Maestro Fan Control and Dimmer Kit, White

I agree with Dylan. Just make sure you have purchased the connectors required to place the dimmer in the location you need it.

I just received the lamp, I have plugged it for 15 min but it doesn't work, I could see those orange colored LEDs for the dimmer and I could change them dragging right-left, however, the LED lamp itself doesn't work

put 6 in a chandelier and the incandescent dimmer worked fine. However, I have a track light in the kitchen that had 10 halogen bulbs at 12 volts and when I replaced these with led the lights flickered until one halogen was replaced. If you don't have an electronic voltage transformer you should be ok. they need load to work. i

The lamp needs to be powered up to be controlled by the dimmer...so if it is in full on mode, the dimmer will switch and control that..if the lamp is switched to medium then the dimmer will control that... It should work.

I've installed this ballast once before and it has worked for about 3 yr. I just received another one, and I noticed that it specifically states that it not for use with dimmers. Go figure. I don't know what else to use, though. Unfortunately, the new one doesn't appear to work at all.

I'm not sure. It won't work the 3-way bulb like the lamp is designed, but it should still work as a dimmer with whatever bulb is in the lamp.

http://www.lutron.com/en-US/Education-Training/Pages/LCE/DimmingBasics.aspx According to this, an incandescent dimmer should work with halogen as well, but your results may vary.

If you connect the dimmer control between the power source and the splitter or a single light bar it should work just fine. Try both setups to see if the splitter is the problem. If you get only an on/off response or nothing at all with that connection I am sure Lightwiki will quickly replace your dimmer control. Just so you know, my entire system worked great right out of the box and is still working fine. Mike

All should work. Driver is designed for Triac dimming which is worst case scenario for dimmers. CFL/LED might actually work better then ELV dimmer because it has a boost preset so the light always comes on at lowest dim.

Sorry, I don't know. I love the fixture but have it in the kitchen where I don't have a dimmer switch. I've had other fixtures hooked up to dimmers by an electrician and don't see any reason why this one couldn't be. Best to check with an electrician, though.

Work marginally with Lutron dimmer. Lamp only comes on with dimmer at 100%, then you can dim. When not at 100% light does not come on.

The dimmer switch won't work because the light have an inline convertor that controls the dimming. At least I don't think it would be recommended to use the dimmer switch with them.

I recently got this lamp so I don't have a replacement bulb. I guess I would get it from Amazon. The lamp has an on/off switch directly behind the bulb. I have no idea about a dimmer.
