can you use led bulbs with a dimmer for this chandalier?

As long as the LED bulb is dimmer-compatible, this will work fine. The chandelier is just an ordinary light-bulb socket with an attachment wire.

Not according to my electrician, at least not with the LED fixtures that I purchased to use with these switches. I had to use 'conventional' dimmer switches, which worked fine.

You don't have to install the CFL bulbs that come with the unit. You can install LED types which ARE able to be dimmed.

I know several people that have L-Prize bulbs on dimmers. Any modern LED rated dimmer should be fine.

Yes - of course it depends what kind of light bulb you put in it. I have 3 LED bulbs that work great on a dimmer. CFLs will not work as we'll.

There is nothing from the manufacturer that states that these CANNOT be used with a dimmer, but I would ask a professional before installing.

No. You must use a decent dimmer that's led capable. The old dimmers are hard on the electronics in the led

I only use chandelier bulbs, the old kind. Besides we have that light on a dimmer switch and CFL bulbs don't work on dimmers. The shades have two wire loops inside that slide onto the bulbs. I doubt they would fit CFLs.

I have LED bulbs in the fan now. I do not have them set up on a dimmer but that should not be a problem either.

It is the bulb not the fixture that makes it dimmer compatible. So if you use standard bulbs this is fixture can be used with a dimmer. The low energy florescent bulbs are usually the problem with dimmers. What is great about this fixture is you can use high wattage bulbs. I use phillips low energy standard bulbs that are about 50 watts but output about 2500 lumens which is about a 100 watt bulb. Multiply that by three and you have one very bright fixture if needed. Good luck

I have used led bulbs in fixtures with dimmers and did change anything with the hardware. I DID HOWEVER make sure that the bulbs were listed as dimmable before i installed them and i have had no problems at all.

Yes, a standard dimmer can be used with this fixture. We have 2 of these fixtures and both are on dimmers.

To my knowledge, I don't think so. There are cfl bulbs that are specifically designed for dimmer operation.

Only use CFL (curly Q bulbs) that are designated as "dimmable". LED and standard incandescent bulbs should work fine.

I am not sure but the wise thing to do is buy the remote switch without the dimmer capability. I'm sorry but I still use them on spot bulbs. But it shouldn't work with LED. My advise is to get the on/off remote switch to be on the safe side.

I would not do that, but a licensed electrician would be abke to verify that. Most flourescent bulbs will NOT dim. It is the way they are built!

You will have to install your own dimmer switch. The sets use standard bulbs, so they are dim able.
