Has anyone used this with LED bulbs? If so, any issues to speak of?

I have 20 of them in my house, they all have LED bulbs in them and they are working perfectly.

I am useing the flat lightbulb shaped LED bulbs in mine and have had no issues. They are cooler and brighter and it is noticable. The other bulbs were very hot, expensive and delicate.

Works fine with LED bulbs but it increases the length of the bulb by a good bit so you need to make sure both the bulb and the adapter will fit. I didn't realize that and it would not work for my light fixture so I actually replaced the fixture for one that accepts regular screw on bulbs so I don't have to bother with the adapter or buying bulbs with the odd connector pins.

I have this connected to incandescent pot lights. When you push the on switch there is a slight pause from when the light comes on to when the light is fully bright. Because of that, I would use them with dimmable LEDs. Leviton's own documentation warns that using incandescent DIMMER switches with LED bulbs may result in inconsistent performance, and that they are not UL safety rated for use with LED bulbs. But this isn't really a dimmer switch, it's either on or off. Most of what I have read regarding using standard wall switches (incandescent) for LED bulbs only talk about performance loss at low power, not about safety issues. To be safe, though, I would ask an electrician, or consult the manufacturer's (lighting fixture) documentation.

I have never tried LED bulbs, but why shouldn't they work. This is just a simple A/C screw socket.

I've been using flourescent bulbs in mine without any problem. Hope that helps!

There is no reason why this lamp wouldn't be compatible with an LED bulb. Like Wesley said, the major drawback with LED bulbs is that they will not cast light uniformly like a traditional style bulb. Although, I recently purchased a few 9.5 watt "Cree" brand LED bulbs and have been extremely pleased with them. You're looking at $9 a bulb, but I was amazed by the output. I read 3-4 non-amazon reviews before buying and Cree was the closest thing to incandescent bulbs as you can get.

I looked at the .pdf manual. It says "Incandescent" at the top of the page, so it will not work well with LEDs. As someone said, that's why the low price.

Haven't tried them with LED lights. I couldn't get them to work with compact fluorescent lamps,

I used regular bulbs......led dimmers were too expensive; therefore, I haven't tried.

I have used it for over a year with 4 of the Cree 60 watt equiv daylight 5000K led bulbs with no problems. Very pleased with this socket adapter. I just got a 2nd one and 4 more cree led bulbs for the other socket in the garage.

Yes you can use led light bulbs with this provided they are standard light bulb sockets. I use led as well.

I used it with a LED for a few weeks but it did not function well. I often had to tap the lamp base multiple times to get it to turn on or change setting. It now works well with an incandescent bulb.

I haven't used it with an LED bulb so I don't know about that. The light turns on and off with a single push. To dim or brighten it, you hold the button in until you get to your desired dimness or brightness.

It will work with led light bulbs although certain ones will not dim correctly. They will go low and then turn off instead of staying slightly dim. I use mines with normal can lights works awesome. Hope it helps.

Yes, it works well with low wattage lights including incandescent and LED bulbs. There is a relay built-in that "clicks" when the lights change state (OFF to ON or ON to OFF). In wiring the light, there is a connection to neutral (white) and hot (black) although the color of the wires may differ depending on whether it is a 3-way or single pole.

I do not own any LED bulbs yet so I am unable to answer this question. I do use an have put in a spiral CFL bulb with no problems. Thanks.

Yes, I'm using it with a CFL right now. I would assume it would be fine with an LED as well.

yes, it works fine, I have installed 4 of these and all with LED bulbs - very satisfied
