Does this work with CFL and Halogen bulbs?

541A does not work with CFL. 741B model works with all bulbs but it is single pole.

It will work with Halogen, I don't know about CFL as I refuse to use them for a number of reasons, one their blue color and the other is their toxicity. Just remember that with this unit you need to have at least 40 watts for a load. If you are going to use them with LED lighting which typically will be less than 40 watts, then you need to get the other Honeywell model RPLS740B (in the color you want, as this one is white). I hope this answers your question.

Works with Incandescent and halogen lighting http://www.honeywellstore.com/store/products/honeywell-econoswitch-programmable-light-switch-timer-almond.htm

Yes, I have 5 units that control inside and outside CFL and Incandescent. No issues at all. NOTE: look at the minimum wattage specification if using it with low wattage CFLs. Some of these type of units require a 40watt total minimum !

Yes they should have no problem with the bulbs its actually the power source u need to worry about.....my house front door light switch is connected to the garage so when i install mine it did not last very long the switch died in about 3 months..... just make sure whatever switch you want to change with the honeywell make sure it is not sharing power source otherwise it works wonderful... my sister has the older version and it has been working for her 2yrs in counting.... gook luck

Yes. I only use the CFL bulbs in my house and I have 3 of these timer switches. With no issues.

This switch works with a fluorescent overhead light fixture that uses a balast (i.e. four ft fluorescent ceiling fixture in a garage or laundry room)I expect it will not work for CFL bulb that is not designed for use with dimmers.

It's working great for me with 3 9.5-watt Cree dimmable LEDs. It definitely won't work with CFL's unless they are specifically dimmable CFL's, and probably not even then.

Yes, I have 10 cfl's hooked up on one of these. It also works with the 3 individual exterior wall lights with LED's bulbs. It doesn't matter what bulb you use as long as the voltage is the same.

Yes. I have been running CFLs off three of these timers for more than a year. Works fine.

These aren't designed to work with CFLs or LEDs. Only incandescents. I would think that they will make some in the future that will.

I've used it with CFL bulbs. It only turns them off and on. There is no longer a dimmer function though.

Yes, the CFL bulbs won't make any difference however mine didn't work at all so I'd be a bit hesitant to make the purchase if I were you. Had nothing to do with the type of bulbs it just wouldn't work.

I have used it with a CFL, but I don't know if it will work with a LED bulb.

I'm pretty sure this in only intended for incandescent and halogen bulbs - remember something like that on the instructions, which I didn't keep, unfortunately.

Yes. I have used this switch with both Philips and Cree LED bulbs. No issues.

If the light is a plug in, yes. I don't know if it works with fluorescent or LED bulbs though.

Yes it will work very well with both LED and CFL lights.......I've had both but currently using LEDs.

I would assume so. It just provides power to your fixture, so if your fixture can do CFL, then you should be fine.

Yes, CFL works, but I don't like the "warm up" time it takes them to hit their stated lumen output. The unit clearly states the maximum watts the unit can handle - which is pretty high.Like a previous responder, I switched over to led's. More expensive, of course.

This is simply a photovotaic switch, so all it does is turn on a circuit and has nothing to do with the type of bulb in the circuit. I use it with my frontyard lantern, which uses a 100W HP Sodium bulb, so it will work with a low wattage CFL.
