Does the dimmer work for LED lights? I have 6 x 65 w LED that use 11w each

I got these thinking they'd work with my LED bulbs - they did for a few months and then stopped. I researched it and you're supposed to use special dimmers for CFL/LED lights. I bought these instead (says LED in the title) and they work well with my LED recessed lights. I have 5 11w (65w equivalent) lights on one switch. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008X3CHM0/ref=pe_385040_30332200_pe_309540_26725410_item DaveH46 is correct, your LED bulbs need to be listed as dimmable also.

I tested with normal led bulb but it damaged the bulb, however there are some Dimmable led bulbs and it works with them, I bought these and works perfect.7.5 Watt Dimmable LED Bulb, Neutral White By Ledwholesalers, 1012nw

I have several LED type bulbs in my house, and the only ones I can get this to work with are the CREE Daylight White 40 watt equivalent (6 watt) the others I have are either not rated for DIMMER use or when in the "Off" setting the 60 watt or 100 watt version of the CREE bulbs stay on dimly.

No It's strictly for 1000 watt lights. the dimmable is to run the light at 75% and 50% of it's power. but it has to be 1000 watts.

They work with incandescent recessed fixtures and bulbs fine, but they don't work well with most LED recessed fixtures or bulbs. Use the non-dimmer ones instead. Works on LED if there are 3 or 4 LED lights on one switch. I think a minimum load of 40 watts is required for the switch to work correctly. Most LED lights are around 10 watts each.

Yes. I believe this dimmer is suitable for led bulbs and should definitely allow the brightness of those bulbs to be adjusted lower.

I am using the previously installed dimmers meant to work with incandescent bulbs. The dimming range of LED bulbs is not as extensive as when using incandescent bulbs.

Yes, however the dimmer must be made for Led's one of the old cheapy may not work. Also they will not fully dim before they go off so the brightness will only dim about halfway before they go out. The more of these you have on one circuit the more they will dim. Some dimmers switches will do better than others about how well they will dim also. But when you buy a dimmer it must say for LED lights on the box. The dimmers usaully will cost around 20 bucks. Hope that helps...

I don't know because it was never my intention to dim them. However all incandescent bulbs will work on a dimmer switch but at 7 watts I don't know how much control you would have. BTW this is a very nice product.

I'm using a Leviton 6674-P0W SureSlide Universal 150-Watt LED and CFL/600-Watt Incandescent Dimmer. It works great with this bulb.

I know that Marco has already answered the question so you are good to go. The issue with LED dimming is the power module that steps down the AC 120 AC voltage, not typically the LED. PWM stands for pulse with modulation which dims the LED by lighting the LED at various duty cycle percentages instead of changing the voltage comming out of the dimmer like incandescent dimmers. Know that you can call LEDwholesalers directly and they are very helpful. I have gone to their location in Hayward, CA and they powered up several items so that I could compare the quality of the different LED strips. They are actually excited about what they sell! - Brad

It works fine with my recessed LEDs. Perhaps your LEDs are not dimmable or not wired correctly. I have multiple circuits controlled by LRM-AS120 mostly with Lithonia Lighting 6 in. Recessed White LED Baffle Downlight Model # 6BPMW M4. Very smooth dimming.

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.

We used the Lutron Maestro dimmer for LEDs. Works perfectly. I would imagine there are other options, too. Lutron MACL-153M-WH Maestro 150-Watt Multi-Location CFL/LED Digital Dimmer

I have only once tried to dim them using a Lutron dimmer that successfully dimmed six 50w halogen bulbs in a single fixture. This particular dimmer did not work with these LED bulbs. Perhaps another dimmer might but I don't have an installation to test them.

It could possibly be your dimmer. Not all dimmers are compatible with LEDs. Quite often you will need an electronic dimmer that is capable of dimming LEDs.
