will this dim halogen lights?

I am sorry, but I do not know. I installed LED lights and they dim those. However on a low setting, I do experience some flickering. You can call the help line at Lutron (it's on their web site) and they can answer the question. Good Luck.

yes it will work as a dimmer, and yes you also have to have a bulb that CAN be dimmed, such as an incandescent bulb, or a flourescent bulb that is rated for dimming. Most flourescent bulbs are not rated for dimming.

Yes. As long as it is a regular incandescent three way bulb (not CFL or LED) the dimmer will "see" it as an ordinary bulb. For example if you have a 50-100-150 three way on the highest setting it will behave exactly the same as a regular 150 watt bulb.

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.

No, I never tried it. My experience with Halogen bulbs in the past tells me they don't respond well to dimming.

http://www.lutron.com/en-US/Education-Training/Pages/LCE/DimmingBasics.aspxAccording to this, an incandescent dimmer should work with halogen as well, but your results may vary.

definitely not. this has an internal circuit board that changes the voltage from 120VAC to 12Volt. This means the light won't dim it will simply turn off.

Yes, this dimmer dims the lights. However, you need to know that whenever you turn on the lights, they initially come on bright regardless of the setting when lasst turnrd off.

Any attempt to dim this bulb will kill it. You need to buy a dimmable LED. This fits standard sockets.

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.

Yes thus will dim a 3 way bulb. Just turn the lamp on to the brightness you want and then use the Insteon controller to control on-off and brightness

It does have the capability to dim the overhead lights, but I am not sure about LED bulbs.

Yes, assuming the "electric wire" is low voltage and the same as the dimmer.

It depends on the type of bulb you put in it.If you put an LED or incandescent bulb in it, it is dimmable.

I'm sorry, I do not know! The switch I have it on is not a dimmer switch. I'm sure it does as long as you have a dimmer switch and bulbs that are dimmable...not all LEDs are dimmable. Hope this helps:)

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