davyboy   19 #1 Posted March 7, 2018 We have some 240V 2W LED down lighters in our ceiling which are a bit too bright. Does any one know if the on/off switch can be replaced by a dimmable one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

tommythecat   10 #6 Posted March 8, 2018 Also, you'll probably want to get 'trailing-edge' dimmers (rather than 'leading-edge' dimmers, which most are if they've not been installed specifically for LEDs) .  Recently replaced all our halogens with LEDs, and the old (leading edge) ones did work, but made some of the bulbs buzz and flicker a bit.  Screwfix was cheapest I found locally for dimmable bulbs and the new dimmers.
