Are these incandescent bulbs, or, if not, of what type? Somewhat puzzled by the Q&A saying they are not dimmable ...

As noted in my August 20, 2013 review of this product, they are incandescent bulbs.

As far as I know all incandescents are dimmable, as long as you don't brighten them beyond their wattage.

I'm not sure if they are dimmable. I just have them plugged in. They work great, really easy to use.

i don't recall seeing anything on the package saying that is was dimmable. That would make me think it was not. Dimmable bulbs usually advertise themselves as such.

Lights are not dimmable. You can turn them on and off at night but they will only come on at night.

Hi Greg --They're incandescents, actually the same bulb as in most nightlights. They are a bit of pain to replace, especially for the more hamfisted of us. Overall, however, it's an excellent unit.Ted Q.

I don't know if they are dimmable. The light was much brighter than I thought it would be, so I used it in a bedroom ceiling light.

Bulbs do not dim. They are bright. Sometimes we just light every other socket. Hope that helps, I don't know how many lumens , sorry.

Are they CFL light bulbs? I heard, but don't know for sure, that they may not be able to be dimmed. I'm probably all wet. My Lutron works GREAT and I love it. So sorry for your woes.

No it's not dimmable! Apparently... I've burned through 2 of these over just a few months. I suspect it's because I had them at dimmed. The description says they aren't dimmable, and that seems to be the case.

These bulbs definitely are bright enough. But they are not dimmable. You also need to make sure you don't have space constraints since these bulbs are slightly larger than the incandescent bulbs they replace.

I use mine in outside fixtures on a timer. So, they aren't actually dimmed, but the non-dimmable one's I used first failed after not much use. The dimmable ones have been working great, but I don't really dim them. I haven't experienced a buzzing sound on either the non-dimmable or dimmable bulbs, sorry.

Yes, these bulbs are dimmable. We use them in our dining room chandelier with a dimmer. I'm not sure about the lumen output.

Despite conflicting answers, these bulbs are dimmable. One can be sure of this because 1) Every halogen bulb is an incandescent bulb 2) Every incandescent bulb is dimmable.

No these and most cfl bulbs are not dimmable. You want to look for 3-way cfl bulbs

Mine are bright white but can be dimmed. I have found though that dimming these shortens the life of the bulbs. Amazon has by far the best price on these bulbs (120 volt). Must be very careful not to get fingerprints on bulbs when installing or replacing. Suggest use of rubber glove for this. Have never seen these in cool white but dimmer is excellent for ambiance and effect.

Yes, these are incandescent halogen bulbs, and they work fine on a dimmer.If you are installing a new high voltage (120v) *dimmer*, you may need to ensure the dimmer is compatible with the power supply/transformer for the low-voltage fixture. If everything is already in place and working and all you're doing is replacing bulbs, you are good-to-go.
