Part of a house re-furb that I've just finished ..... in one room I've fitted five 4watt LED downlighters on a standard one way switch.
They'd prefer a dimmer. Even the elec suppliers (CEF) could only come up with one with a minimum load of 40W.
Still get poor dimming control and flickering.
I might have read somewhere about fitting some kind of shunt resistor to increase the load.
Any ideas?
As flob says or buy a dedicated led dimmer...these use trailing edge technology and give the lamps a soft start.If you try to use a standard dimmer it will soon burn out.Pop into Eddys..City or Neweys...but they aint cheap.

Good point Flobbers. I should have done that in the first place. :o(
Brightness ......... so there is such a thing as a dedicated LED dimmer? I thought there would be. It was City where I asked. I guess the lad on the counter didn't know about them. While I was enquiring, there was a "proper" electrician in the store. He didn't know either :o(
