Do these work with a dimmer? Is the light clear and white? (no tint)

GU 10 is the base style it is the socket and two pin contact style of light socket systems. the bulbs come in halogen which can be dimmed and led which I do not know if they can be dimmed or not...mainly because led's take a certain current to keep them on. I do not think the cheaper led bulbs will dim. The light can b e bright white or bright yellow.

I found they won't work with this dimmer. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000JJYJMM

Most any dimmer will "work" with a dimmable bulb, but the low priced dimmers don't dim as well. Not a smooth transition, flickering, etc.

Don't know. Sorry - just bought as a replacement set and my guess would be no - not dimming.

No they are not. The only one I have seen with a dimmer at a reasonable price came from overstock.com

These are not dimmable. Make sure the ones you buy say dimmable as a feature. If used with a dimming switch then they will flicker when turned on.

Yes, and the dimmer works really well, smooth transition and very low to bright. Love this light, have bought two for the house, may buy another.

They are dimmable, but they are of a substandard quality to the ones that came originally with my fixtures. They have burnt out in an eighth of the time the originals did.

I am using these with LEDs. Did you hook up neutral and are the lights known to be dimmable? Not all LEDs are...

These say dimmable. I had an electrician tell me that I needed LED compatible dimmers, but they work on my old dimmers.

I am sure they will dim. they are just a regular incandescent bulb. you will likely not want them dimmed tho. They do work very well.

No they are not dimmable it must be something they have installed. They are very nice though but make sure you check the bulbs carefully if you order them. One of mine had a small crack in one of the bulbs. I contacted the manufacture and they sent me a replacement right away. Hope that helps.

Yes, they are dimmable. The dimmer knob is just a variable resistor. It lowers the voltage "seen" by the bulbs, so less current flows through. Lower current means a dimmer light. The beauty of an analog device.

No these do not work well with lights on a dimmer switch. I swapped out my dimmer switch for a regular switch in order to use these bulbs.

I don't have a dimmer on these bulbs as they are used for landscaping lighting. However, I have a dimmer on some inside LED's and when I bought the dimmer, I noticed that some dimmers said "not" for LED's and some said they were for LED's. I think the digital dimmers are for LED's. It's been awhile since I bought the dimmer, but seems like the ones for LED's were also for dimmable florescent bulbs.

I am using LED bulbs and am dimming them with the switch. So far, no problems and is working fine...make sure the bulbs state they are, in fact, dimmable.

Yes and no. Limited levels of dimming at low levels. At a certain point they just shut off. It's decent though. Though if you have any halogen bulbs in the track, they will be much dimmer at the same level.
