Frequently Asked Questions

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?

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?

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?

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?

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.

We are installing LED recessed down lights and multi-switch electric boxes and so far only have 1 live circuit. The switch does go dim to bright smoothly. We are going to try replacing some other of our switches on LED's because those lights hum and do not smoothly go up & down in brightlness. We will better know how the switchs are when we replace the existing LED sitches with these reverse phase switches. Glen 8-29-25
