Will this product support CFL bulbs?

This remote definitely works as an on/off remote control for any bulb. The question remains if the dimmer portion would work with the CFL. I've had issues with LED bulbs not working but CFL bulbs are different than either LED or incandescent. I would check with the manufacturer's package info for restrictions.

I do not think so. The controller's instructions state that the lamp control should be used with incandescent lamps only. CFL lamps have an electronic ballast, all of them I have seen aren't dimable, but this doesn't mean they don't exist. The controller has a lamp dimming function which might cause the CFL to respond poorly, if at all to the chopped up waveform put out by the controller.

I've used it with CFL bulbs. It only turns them off and on. There is no longer a dimmer function though.

It will not support normal cfl bulbs. It will support the more expensive "dimmable" cfl bulbs.

Yes. I have used both the 60 and 100 watt version of a CFL since I first bought this product.

It will work woith both CFL and LED ... Presently is turning on 5 23 watt CFL and 1 18 watt LED. It's been a great product and keeps setting with power outages.

Yes it will, no problem. LEDs are better though. Cfls have a very poor power factor and are less efficient.

the device has a relay so yes it can handel most any CFL or LED bulb. I use one of these to control several CFL lamp fixtures at once, no problem if you can do the wiring. Look for the PDF file on the Heath/Zenith web page, just keep your wattage well below the 500 watt max limit and your good to go. (Ten 30 watt CFL bulbs is 300 watts so one CFL light is an easy day for this unit).

It doesn't work on my CFL. I either need to find a CFl that fits these or return them.

I think it should, I have it working with both cfl and LEDs. No problem so far.

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.

Looks like it's rated for 1000 watts so I think it will work. It's not like the CFL bulbs need starters.

This latern supports CFL bulbs. I use a very bright one to light up the night and it has been working great.

Yes, it works with CFL, LEDs, fluorescent, etc. I have 2 of these, one hooked to CFLs and the other hooked to LEDs, and it works perfectly fine.

Yes this fixture will accept CFL bulbs with a medium base, but you may not like how it looks since the glass is clear. I would suggest using a clear incandescent bulb and put a dimmer on the switch to saving electricity.

Yes. Works with up to 150 Watts of most dimmable CFL/LED bulbs or 600 Watts of Incandescent/Halogen bulbs.

The model you specified (Lutron TTCL-100H-WH) will handle 250 W incandescent or 100 W CFL/LED bulbs as shown on the back of the unit.

Yes it will work on CFL and I use two 7 watts candelabra lightbulbs. The 40 watt load doesn't seem to come in play. The great part about the switch, it keeps the time and does not need to be reset if the electricity goes out.
