Does this light work with a dimmer switch?

Yes it does. I have two of them focused on a wall painting and they work great.

First this comes in two sizes;make sure the R20 is the bulb you want. Next, I do not have this on a dimmer but if the recessed can you have is on a dimmer I see no reason why this wont work with a dimmer as it acts just an extension.

Yes. the socket is standar. Any dimmable bulb like incandescent or the dimmable high efficiency bulbs will work perfectly Sam Gendler, MD (also Electrical Engineer)

Yes, this product works well with a dimmer. We use it to highlight some wall art and have it tied to a dimmer switch. PM

I have not used bulb with dimmer, but I am almost certain this incandescent bulb will work with a standard incandescent dimmer. Worth trying.

Not according to my electrician, at least not with the LED fixtures that I purchased to use with these switches. I had to use 'conventional' dimmer switches, which worked fine.

In the end, it's jus a light socket, and wouldn't care about the dimmer switch. It's the bulb you screw in that might care. Som compact flourescent bulbs are not dimmable, and some LED bulbs sound like the have "compatible" dimmer switches, but I have not dealt with those.

If you use an incandescent bulb, I don't see why you couldn't use a dimmer switch. I don't know how a CFL or LED bulb would work with a dimmer. We really have enjoyed our light. Very pleased with it.

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.

Only with a 12v dimmer switch. The better the quality of the dimmer switch, the lower it will dim down. Most cheap dimmers only dim to about 30%. A good one -+- $100 will dim down to zero

If as you say, your light switch controls the outlet, YES, the dimmer switch should dim the lamps plugged into that outlet.

I have used this dimmer on regular lighting and low voltage lighting. Never on a dimmable LED fixture. Buy the switch from a store that has a liberal return policy and try it out. Then of course let us know... Good luck!

I am not sure if this one does but I also own chandelier and I know for certain the chandelier works on dimmer

No. You should not install a dimmer switch on the z-wave dimmer (dimmer on dimmer). Instead install a regular toggle switch or a momentary (push button) switch to operate the dimmer.

Sorry, I don't know. I love the fixture but have it in the kitchen where I don't have a dimmer switch. I've had other fixtures hooked up to dimmers by an electrician and don't see any reason why this one couldn't be. Best to check with an electrician, though.

Yes, but you have to have a low voltage dimmer switch. Very hard to find>have not found one.

No these do not work well with lights on a dimmer switch. I swapped out my dimmer switch for a regular switch in order to use these bulbs.

Yes. Mine is on a dimmer and it works just fine. I love this light and strongly recommend it.

Most any dimmer will "work" with a dimmable bulb, but the low priced dimmers don't dim as well. Not a smooth transition, flickering, etc.

This does not have a dimmer switch but it can be wired to dim. A very attractive light. We are enjoying a pair of them.
