Does the dimmer keepp LED lights at a costant output, or does the light intensity oscillale?

I've used three different Led bulbs on this dimmer, and they all dim well, but for some bulbs, they can only get so dim before the flicker. In addition to the dimmer slider, there is a slider you set to determine how dim you will allow the bulbs to get (at the dimmest setting). So you set that to avoid the flicker. How low you can go will vary by LED bulb.

It probably depends on the LEDs. I'm using EcoSmart 6 in. 9.5-Watt (65W) Soft White (2700K) LED Downlights with the CREE LEDs, and they're great; extremely dimmable and very steady output.

It kept the Led retrofit lights in the recessed cans in the ceiling at a constant output. However when I connected a lamp with LED bulbs into an outlet feed by this switch the lamp bulbs oscillated.

Mine do fine until you get to very low levels. Also seems to be sensitive to how quickly you move the dimmer- slower is better for avoiding a flicker.

Don't know. Sorry - just bought as a replacement set and my guess would be no - not dimming.

I am having no problems with my led bulbs. I have been told that some of the less expensive dimmers don't work with led bulbs.

I'm using the switch to control two sets of florescent lights with no trouble. It simply switches them on and off, there is no dimming function with the switch.

No, but it is a fantastic and reliable dimmable LED. I am using it connected to a Lutron dimmer.

I believe it depends on the LED lights themselves. I used this dimmer with incandescent lights but some under counter LED lights I'm looking at show this same dimmer as a dimmer option for them.

The lights buzz when they are at a medium level of light. I don't think this is uncommon with LEDs. The buzzing is virtually gone when it is on full power, and very faint when using at the lowest setting (we use it for a night light). I am using the lutron DIVA dimmer the package says it works with.

Yes it does, my light dimmer, too. But doesn't do dimm, only on/ off. They work good, good luck.

Yes, when motion turns it on. When at rest, it is dim. They work very well.

They will turn them on and off, but dimming is not really an option. You do have to read the instructions and set the "local on level" to full on/full off, otherwise they will flicker.

No, it does not. When switched off it turns on to normal brightness and needs re-dimmed to the previous level.

Yes, but there are two details. 1) the dimming will most likely be a stepping dim, not a smooth dim, and 2) when off the LED will still glow very dimly

In my original review I pointed out that these flicker when dimmed, could also be associated with buzzing since the load is on and off. Mine are still going strong after considerable use, however, I rarely dim since the flickering is irritating.

Electrician here... this is most likely an issue with the switch you are using. Modern electronic style dimmers do not completely turn off the power when in the lowest (off) position. If you have an electronic dimmer switch look at it very closely and you should see a small pull tap (usually pretty inconspicuous), this is a "maintenance" off switch. Pull it out and see if your flickering goes away, if so then you will need to install a different switch.

With my LED set up which is 9 FEIT candelabra style 4w LED's, the bulbs flicker at lower dimming. Basically, they would flicker except at high or maximum. The LED's were rated for dimming.

The LED will stay lit for whatever selection you make, but no there is no indicator for time remaining.

Please be aware that there are special dimmers for LED arrays, if you use incorrect dimmer or voltage you will have delay, flickering or non function
