What dimmer works with these lights with no buzzing?

I use LUTRON C.L Dimmers. They work for all types of bulbs. If there is buzzing with these dimmer switches then there is a problem with the bulb and you should return it.

I think I installed one of these: Lutron, Diva, C*L™ Dimmers for Dimmable CFL & LED Bulbs, DVCL-153P-WH. It is very quiet, but not completely silent.

I don't think this light is made for a dimmer . I saw some in home depot that are made for dimmer

I just bought six, hooked them up to a Lutron Maestro and all of them buzz when dimmed. If I turn them on all the way they do not buzz but then they are super bright.

I use them in a ceiling fan but I can't answer about the dimmer since I don't have one.

I have never tried these with a dimmer but I do know that LEDs don't work with Dimmers

Most any dimmer will "work" with a dimmable bulb, but the low priced dimmers don't dim as well. Not a smooth transition, flickering, etc.

I also use a dimmer and no buzzing sound for me .Make sure the hot and neutral aren't switched (black is hot white is neutral)and the fixcture is properly grounded(green).

It may be the dimmer, I bought 6 for the economy of energy, one has already burned out, they do not buzz though

Hello, I have a non ELV dimmer. The bulbs buzz very loud so I am returning them. They do however produce a nice warm, bright light. The product seems to be very high quality. I believe the issue is with my light switch and/or fixture. I hoped these were a perfect swap-out for incandescents on a 5-bulb light fixture. The buz was just plain too loud. Not worth the money / long term savings ... especially at the premium price.

I know several people that have L-Prize bulbs on dimmers. Any modern LED rated dimmer should be fine.

I've had two of these in my media room for over two years now dimming a number of ceiling and perimeter spot lights (conventional, not LED) and they have been totally silent...no buzz at all. If you have an unusual application then your experience may differ. But these units have performed flawlessly for me since I installed them.

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.

Not for me, if you are asking about the Phillips LED light bulb with the yellow "glass." I have six of them, none buzzes or vibrates when dimmed to any level of illumination. However, minimum illumination (maximum dimness) is not as dim as that given by a tungsten or halogen bulb.

No buzz, hum or any sound whatsoever on mine. I think it would depend on the dimmer used, not the bulb. Some dimmers are ok for LED's. Some are not. Excellent bulb and light.

All of these mini florescent bulbs have small ballasts in the base that control the lighting. They can and often do make a buzzing noise. I have 20 of the 45W lamps and only a few buzz slightly after warming up. I usually have music on when I use them, so it's not noticable for me. If the buzzing is really loud to you, then you might have received a defective batch, in which case I would contact the manufacturer.

I have had my lamp for one month now, and I have not heard any buzzing noises. Hope this helped, you might want to get a return.

I am not sure as I have not tried to add a dimmer yet. I would like to. Let me know if it works for you & let me know what dimmer you use
