Can this light fixture be used with a dimmer?

Yes. Mine is hooked to a dimmer switch. If using compact fluorescent bulbs, you will need to have a CFL rated dimmer switch installed also, as well as using dimable CFL bulbs.

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.

Per the LED Wholesalers website, these are equivalent to 45-50 watt light bulbs so it would be the same as using a lower watt light bulb in your fixture so it will be alright. Per the product specification it states these are not dimmable and from my experience I would not use on a dimmer circuit since it will drastically shorten the life of the bulb since the circuitry is not designed for this application, also will void the warranty of the bulb.

Yes, as long as the box is not full of wires. The switch is the same size as a normal dimmer.

I'm sure you could. Mine is mounted over my sink where my previous light was. It looks great! The switch is on the wall and I think it could easily go on a dimmer...like a regular light. I don't see why not. Hope this was helpful. ;-)

I did not use the unit with a dimmer, but it is listed as dimmable with a standard dimmer. I would just be sure you meet the minimum load the unit requires and that the lamps are listed.

Yes, just install a dimmer in the switch box (electrician or experienced handy person). You will need to use regular light bulbs (non flourescent) for any light on a dimmer. I hope this helps.

Yes it can be used with a dimmer switch I just installed one. You must separately purchase a GU24 Dim-able bulb (Lowes sells them) and make sure your dimmer switch is CFL compatible. If you've ever installed in house lighting fixtures before this one is no different, its very easy.

I am not sure. I would think possibly not well because it is not recommended for a dimmer switch, which has different electronic configuration than a regular switch.

Yes it can be used with a dimmer However I have found it to have a high pitched him as opposed to others

Yes, it can be used with a dimmer, but you can't control dimmer with this. All it does is power on and power off at set times.

To my knowledge, I don't think so.There are cfl bulbs that are specifically designed for dimmer operation.

No problem working with a dimmer. I love the light but will caution they have a disappointingly short life for the price.

Yes they can be used on a dimmer. I use them on a dimmer in my dinning room and they work great. They really shine when turned down about half way. That's when the filament is at its best

As far as I know that would be based on the bulbs you use, instead of the light fixture. I will read the box, but I'm almost certain you could put a dimmer switch on the light. Hope that is helpful. Thank you -Matt

Yes. I installed one with mine and it works great. Make sure dimmer switch is compatible with LED lamps.

Yes - of course it depends what kind of light bulb you put in it. I have 3 LED bulbs that work great on a dimmer. CFLs will not work as we'll.

No. You must use a decent dimmer that's led capable. The old dimmers are hard on the electronics in the led
