Does this work with the new LED or Cree bulbs?

I don't know. I've never tried to use it for anything other than an incandescent bulb.

My guess is the LED will work provided the LED unit is 110 volts and does not exceed the voltage or amperage of unit. I will say with confidence the unit has worked flawlessly since purchase with Flourescent bulbs. To be safe I would check with the mfg.

I purchased Cree LED light bulbs at Home Depot which seemed to solve the problem. Apparently these bulbs are more efficient (lumens per watt), which implies to me less heat is being generated. These bulbs are also cast a more diffused light that other LED bulbs. Note that LED can lights are designed for the can enclosure, which is not true for LED light bulbs. Someone mentioned dimmers not working. I have found out that the dimmer needs to specify that it will work with LED lights to work properly.

If you are looking to replace the LED bulb I would recommend contacting a Minka dealer. We can accommodate your request since we are a Minka dealer.

It's working great for me with 3 9.5-watt Cree dimmable LEDs. It definitely won't work with CFL's unless they are specifically dimmable CFL's, and probably not even then.

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

I don't know. The problem I have with them is that the terminals on the led bulb are spaced to wide to work with my plug in!

I have used it with a CFL, but I don't know if it will work with a LED bulb.

According to the instructions it uses a normal incandescent bulb. However, I've never tried an LED bulb though. It might...

I can't specifically answer the question on the Cree bulb; however, I do have another 75-watt, LED bulb, similar to the Cree, connected to a Leviton in-wall timer & switch and that works just fine.

This LED light is designed to replace and standard bulb. If you have a different type of bulb such as a slot for a florescent tube shaped like a "U", this replacement light will not work. You'll have to replace the entire with a standard socket, although it would likely be better to just replace the can with a LED light in the first place.

I found the switch worked fine with two Cree 9.5 watt bulbs. And to my surprise it also worked with a set of these Triangle Bulbs (Pack of 3) G16.5 Decorative Globe Light Bulbs 380 Lumen 5-watt LED Light Bulb E12 Base 5 watt, non dimmable bulbs. I assume the 40 watt incandescent minimum is for provide a sufficiently low resistance ground return to keep the timer powered up. It would appear the internal power supply for most LEDs will do the job.

they use a standard light bulb base. So I believe the new LED lights that have that type of base should work fine.

It depends on the LED, but I have four of them installed and all are dimming Cree LED bulbs fine.

Good news, bad news. Bad news: sorry, I can't tell you which dimmer we use. Because good news: it was just the standard dimmer installed by a previous owner years ago for a halogen can, so I assume most standard dimmers work with this bulb.

This is H11 compatible type bulb.Amazon matching isn't perfect all the times. This is generic brand and one year standard warranty is provided. Yes, It is cree LEDs. Thanks

Yes, all LED bulbs are sensitive to orientation. If mounted in a ceiling fixture (especially a fully inclosed one), the expected lifetime will be reduced. However, Cree bulbs theoretically have well-designed thermal management, so if you're choosing an LED light to install in a ceiling fixture, this is the one I'd go with.
