Will this switch work with LED light bulbs?

I believe they will work on LED's ....I installed one on some high efficiency outdoor bulbs I believe they are of the "LED" type. The problems I have had is at times the remote switch does not work...one day it justs decides not to work reliably but most of the time it works fine. (The failure times do not have any rhyme or reason...could be close to the reciever or a couple hundred feet)

I had the switch installed by an electrician. It worked at first. That evening it did not work. It still does not work. I have to replace the switch with the original switch. Do not buy the switch. It does not work.

I am using the switch to successfully control an LED pool light powered by 110VAC..

Yes. The switch is relay-driven, so it will work with any kind of light bulb or lamp. It makes an audible click when it operates. In fact, you can use it with any appliance that can handle being on a light switch. Just don't exceed the switch's power rating (stated on the product page).

Yes that is what I got it for and it works perfectly! I love this light switch it works first time every time...The farthest I have used it is 30ft so not sure about the distance but works everytime from 30ft away.

Yes it will. Any light fixture will work with a dimmer, it's the bulb that matters. Some bulbs you can't use with dimmers. Some of the LED bulbs use different dimmers than incandescent bulbs, just ask the person in the store what kind you need for the bulb you have.

It should work with dimmable led bulbs since any dimmer switch works by reducing the voltage to the bulb reguardless of the type of bulb. You can turn off the bulb with a press of the button but dimming the bulb requires you to hold the button in.

Yes. I hooked my led strip to it and it works like it should. The switch is very well built...I like it a lot.

It works with my LED light, but I have noticed odd behavior when the dimmer is on lower settings. There is a momentary delay before the bulb emits light, and once the bulb is lit, it has a tendency to vary in brightness. I don't notice this with incandescent bulbs on the same switch. Full disclosure: I live in an old house so this may be a result of older wiring.

Yes. It acts as an on/off switch so even non-dimmable bulbs will work. I have two controlling CFLs non problem, and will eventually replace them with LEDs when the time comes.

The switch itself does not no. I have dimmable LED bulbs that will buzz below 30%

yes.....as long as it is a regular on/off switch. Dimmer switches are tricky. They must be approved to use with a specific type of LED approved by the LED's manufacturer

Be very aware of your light bulb type before purchasing. I cannot say if it will do what you want. We use CFL (compact florescent) bulbs and those will not work at all with this switch. As another answer said, the LED bulbs might, but unless the description has changed nothing is mentioned online even about CFL bulbs, though it does appear in the very tiny print on the packaging once you receive it. Good luck though.

I'm using it with florescent lighting but the instructions say it will work with any current bulb. I'm sure the LED's will be fine.

As long as you old switch has the same number of leads on each side it should work. My lamp is an antique with three bulbs. The switch worked great for me.

Depends what kind. There are many different LED bulbs these days. Some it will for sure but I don't use many different kind go I can't guarantee it will work with all. But generally does the job.

(assuming 12v bulbs & power supply) yes if they don't total more than 8 amps. I think 8 amps is the switch load.

It does work with LED's and CFL's. The problem is longevity. Mine only lasted 1.5 years.

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

I use this switch on a pair of 150 watt halogen flood lights, see the switch specs below - 50 watt will work just fine. Halogen comes under the official designation of incandescent.Wall Switch (WE-001); On/Off function on devices up to 1000WWorks with incandescent, fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps

Yes it will work very well with both LED and CFL lights.......I've had both but currently using LEDs.
