are these switches available for use with led bulbs?

I tested with normal led bulb but it damaged the bulb, however there are some Dimmable led bulbs and it works with them, I bought these and works perfect.7.5 Watt Dimmable LED Bulb, Neutral White By Ledwholesalers, 1012nw

I actually wondered the same thing when I purchased this item. I was not able to find one. I ended up getting a "Lutron TTCL-100H-BR Credenza Dimmable CFL/LED Dimmer" to control my LED lamp. Purchased from amazon as well.

I used it with a LED for a few weeks but it did not function well. I often had to tap the lamp base multiple times to get it to turn on or change setting. It now works well with an incandescent bulb.

If you find out please let me know. Thanks to our all knowing government, we are all going to need them

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)

Yes, but sourcing the same exact switch might be tricky. You might not be able to duplicate the rubber boot installation, and you will have to do some soldering to make the LED work with the new switch.

Should be able to. Only problem with the automatic switches sometimes is if the bulb were fluorescent, and these aren't fluorescent.

I think you can use with dimmable led bulbs just with Lutron C.L dimmers. Take a look: http://www.lutron.com/Education-Training/LCE/Pages/DimmingCFLsandLEDs.aspx

Yes. However you have to use the compact florescent bulb (CFB) type for this switch. They are the twirly ones.

I don't think these bulbs would work for that application. These are full-sized light bulbs for regular lamps. Someone might make LED bulbs for that purpose, but not these.

Yes, but LEDs are more energy efficient and are safer (because it doesn't heat up) so I'd suggest you try them with this fixture Triangle Bulbs T90020 (Pack of 2) G16 Decorative Globe Light Bulbs 300 Lumen 5-watt LED Light Bulb with E26 Base, Color 3000K, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

I'm not sure you can try direct wiring them with a toggle switch but i needed mine to flash but i have seen brighter led lights than these

Yes you can use led light bulbs with this provided they are standard light bulb sockets. I use led as well.

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

Yes, assuming you use lamps which are dimmable. some LED's and CFL's are not dimmable. Check the package.

Yes, these work just fine with regular switches. I have 30 of these lights and 13 of them are on regular switches while the rest are on dimmers.

Julia P., this switch should work with any lights that are on the circuit. I did not have LED light bulbs attached, but this switch simply turns an existing circuit on and off. So whatever you had attached to the circuit before will work the same. Hope that helps.

If these were 12 V halogen bulbs, yes. Please make sure of that otherwise your LED lights will be destroyed.

Not necessarily. I used this with 4 LED spotlight bulbs that I found on eBay for a few bucks a piece.The switch did not know how to handle the bulbs. The scenes wouldnt work. I was able to schedule the bulbs to turn on, but not turn off.I called SmartHome and they said LEDs are not compatible with this switch unless, of course, they are Insteon LED bulbs

I got these thinking they'd work with my LED bulbs - they did for a few months and then stopped. I researched it and you're supposed to use special dimmers for CFL/LED lights. I bought these instead (says LED in the title) and they work well with my LED recessed lights. I have 5 11w (65w equivalent) lights on one switch. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008X3CHM0/ref=pe_385040_30332200_pe_309540_26725410_item DaveH46 is correct, your LED bulbs need to be listed as dimmable also.
