Can this be used with a dimmer?

Yes, best to use a DC/DC dimmer after the power supply. Such as https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IYXGEEQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.

Yes, you can. I have 3 in a lamp over my pool table on a dimmer switch and they do dim just fine.

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

Yes it can be used with a dimmer switch I just installed one. You must separately purchase a GU24 Dim-able bulb (Lowes sells them) and make sure your dimmer switch is CFL compatible. If you've ever installed in house lighting fixtures before this one is no different, its very easy.

No - the packaging specifically states that they can't be used with a dimmer.

I do not have mine hooked up to a dimmer, but I don' see why you couldn't. With a dimmer, the bulbs are more important than the lighting hardware.

Hey Big Hank. To be honest I don't know the answer to that question. I'd "assume" you cant as I haven't had experience with many smart bulbs that work with dimmers. Well not unless you spend a good amount of money on them. These are fairly in-expensive in the grand scheme of bulbs. If you give it a whirl please let me know.

It did not work on a dimmer swItch. The installer trIed but it did not work. Not sure what kind of dimmer he used. The light is gorgeous!

If you use an incandescent bulb, I don't see why you couldn't use a dimmer switch. I don't know how a CFL or LED bulb would work with a dimmer. We really have enjoyed our light. Very pleased with it.

Yes, assuming the "electric wire" is low voltage and the same as the dimmer.

The dimmer switch won't work because the light have an inline convertor that controls the dimming. At least I don't think it would be recommended to use the dimmer switch with them.

Probably not a good idea. The transformer that controls the LED's requires a steady voltage input to work correctly. If you reduce it with a dimmer you most likely cause it to work outside its designed parameters. I'm not an electrician so this is just my speculation. Unless it says safe to use with a dimmer in the instructions I wouldn't.

Yes, you can use a dimmer switch with this item. We recommend the Zoo Med Rheostat.

No.. This transformer will work with a regular wall switch but not with a dimmer...You are able to use a dimmer switch but it will have to be on the load side of the transformer by adding a 12 volt dimmer switch.

Yes you can. LED lights may not work with this dimmer, but regular incandescent lights will. Just remember that if you want to fade the lights, to set dipswitch 11 and 12 to the ON position (off for switching mode)

I did not use the unit with a dimmer, but it is listed as dimmable with a standard dimmer. I would just be sure you meet the minimum load the unit requires and that the lamps are listed.

You do not want to use the dimmer type. The switch that does not have the dimmer should work fine.
