Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use any dimmer switch with LED bulbs?
Can I use any dimmer switch with LED bulbs?
No. You must use a dedicated LED dimmer switch. Older dimmers designed for incandescent bulbs have high minimum load requirements that LEDs cannot meet, often resulting in flickering or "ghosting."
What is a TRIAC dimmer?
What is a TRIAC dimmer?
A Triac dimmer (or forward-phase dimmer) is the standard residential control. It works by "chopping" the front part of the AC sine wave to reduce power. Most dimmer switches for LED lights are advanced versions of TRIAC technology.
Why do I need an MLV dimmer?
Why do I need an MLV dimmer?
You need an MLV dimmer if your lighting fixture uses a magnetic transformer. Using a standard LED dimmer on a magnetic load can cause the transformer to overheat and eventually fail.
What is the difference between a slide and touch dimmer?
What is the difference between a slide and touch dimmer?
A slide dimmer uses a physical moving part to set the light level. A touch dimmer, like the Lutron Sunnata, uses a digital interface with no moving parts, offering a sleeker look and often a "soft" fade-on/fade-off effect.
Do I need a neutral wire for a dimmer switch?
Do I need a neutral wire for a dimmer switch?
Many modern smart dimmer models require a neutral wire (white) to power their internal electronics. However, many standard mechanical dimmers do not. Always check the wiring in your wall box before purchasing.
