Does this work with CFL bulbs?

I actually also bought a dimming socket and use the Cree LED light 60w that dims. works great for that.

Yes, but I found that it works better with LEDs. This is just the control panel, but the opener that it pairs with holds two bulbs and one of them would keep turning off when I used CFL's. When I changed them to LED's the problem stopped. The problem might have just been a loose connection, don't know, but it works great with LED's.

I see no reason why you cannot use a cfl bulb. Just make sure the wattage is no more than 40.

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.

It doesn't work on my CFL. I either need to find a CFl that fits these or return them.

The spec sheet shows it works with "all types of lighting" so I'd say yes to LEDs. I use it on CFLs with no problem. Follow the link in the product listing to the user's manual for more details.

This remote definitely works as an on/off remote control for any bulb. The question remains if the dimmer portion would work with the CFL. I've had issues with LED bulbs not working but CFL bulbs are different than either LED or incandescent. I would check with the manufacturer's package info for restrictions.

Yes, it works with CFL, LEDs, fluorescent, etc. I have 2 of these, one hooked to CFLs and the other hooked to LEDs, and it works perfectly fine.

I use a cfl and it works fine. I think the "traditional" bulb for this lamp is more indirect, but the socket is a standard size, so you should be able to screw anything into it.

Yes, works great with CFL, which are what I'm using. I believe it shouldn't be a problem with LEDs as well. This switch is not a dimmer, it is 100% on or 100% off on a timer. My understanding is that some CFL and LED bulbs can not be dimmed which would be a problem if one were to use them on a dimmer switch.

I haven't tried it on a CFL bulb but you should be able to use the fitting for floodlights to change out a CFL bulb. Be sure to wear eye protection in case the bulb fractures. You don't want the powder inside the tube to get in them.

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.

I have this working with CFLs in multiple locations. They work great. Also works flawlessly with LEDs.

It will work and dim with any bulb but will not dim with CFL bulbs. They sell their own LED bulb that does not need a switch or module to control it.

No. I had it installed and noticed on the last line of the instructions it said it was NOT for CFL's.

yeah, I have a 60w incandescent in mine, so I wouldn't see why a CFL wouldn't work.

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