Can these be dimmed? I have my landscape lights on a TRIAC dimmable transformer.

The dimmable range is for LEDs is very small and close to nominal light output. LEDs require a minimum amount of power to generate light. That minimum power produces a brightness that is near peak level. Applying more power produces a brighter light and decreases life expectancy. For the layman, the answer is mostly no.

If it isn't specifically stated that they can be, in my experience, most LED's can't successfully be dimmed. Not sure if a triac would work better than a regular dimmer, though.

My lighting designer told me that it would not work with low voltage transformers. They suggested the Lutron Diva for that purpose, which is what I am using. I used these everywhere else in my house, though, and they work well. They're a little strange to wire, especially in 3-way and 4-way applications, so you need to have the wiring instructions handy when you're installing them. We also did use these with LED bulbs, and the dimming works funky with dimmable Cree LEDs. One light fixture had two Cree dimmable LED bulbs in it, and the light would not come on when set to a dimming position, when when "turned up" it would flash one of the bulbs on, and then finally the other one. We did not experience this problem with TCP LED halogen replacements, only with Cree standard dimmable LEDs.

They are not dimmable but I bought a $10 high voltage outdoor dimmer and it works great with the bulbs

i don't know. I put these bulbs into standard 110V fixtures wired with 24VAC low voltage landscape lighting. I didn't try using a dimmer.

If don't know if they are dimmable, I've only used them for outdoor landscaping floodlights.

I don't think so. They have a dc transformer. You can wire them into a non dim-able light switch. I bought a remote dimmer I can use to dim them.

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

I don't know if they are dimmable. The light was much brighter than I thought it would be, so I used it in a bedroom ceiling light.

Not dimmable as far as I know. I haven't tried using dimmers on them. My guess would be that they don't work like that. I'm sure you an find LEDs that do however. Good luck.

They are not made to be dimmable. They do dim but then burn out as a result of multiple dimming events.

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.

Hi, you could dim them if you hard wired them to a dimmer switch. You could also wire a dimmer switch on the line side of a receptacle and dim the lights through the receptacle that you plug your lights into. They are incandescent light bulbs so a dimmer will not damage them and they will work fine.

Hi there, out of the box they are not dimable. I bought a cord with a dimmer switch and pluged the lights into it. Now it works like a charm, I can dim them down really low at night now or really bright depending on the mood.

Honestly - I don't know. Thses are the only lights we do not have dimmers with. That question needs to go to the seller. Good luck

I do not know, I do not use them that way. Mine are hanging outside and I do not have a dimmer attached. But I will tell you this, they are absolutely beautiful just like they are!

Yes, you can install a standard AC dimmer switch. That is what we installed. No need for a transformer dimmer.

I don't have mine on a dimmer but remember they are only 7 watts which is a very low light.
