"We called DMF and they gave us an approved list of dimmers and oddly enough the Lutron dimmer listed is the one for incandescent bulbs, not CL. So we switched it and that helped a teeeeeeeeeny bit. Still not great. We should've gone with the Cree! " The power supply design to work with ANY type of dimming is more expensive to design and manufacture. It takes extra circuitry and parts to convert the width of the AC wave into a dimming control signal, while still tolerating the distorted voltage and current available from the dimmers The 'magnetic' dimmers use a different device to control the AC waveform, but the power supply (CFL, florescent ballasts, LV, LED) needs to be specially designed for one type of dimmer or the other.

Don't mind the missing door, I'm in the process of adding trim to the cabinets and plan on painting them a cream color with some pinstripe glazing. If anyone has any idea as to why this would happen, or if you have experienced the same thing I would appreciate to hear your thoughts. I've searched all over the web and only found issues from flickering LEDs used with a dimmer which isn't the case with mine. I really don't want to run the halogen bulbs.

2 possibilities 1. The lamp installed is not dimmable for example the Feit BPLVBAB/LED Feit MR16 led 2. If you have 12V low voltage lighting, it is possible that the transformer is really a 12V low voltage power supply. There are 2 different types of low voltage power supplies -Magnetic Low Voltage ( MLV) or Electronic Low Voltage (ELV). The dimmer type has to be matched to the type of the power supply for operational safety reasons. Check the power supply (transformer).

LEDs are fundamentally low voltage devices. If you get the LED bulbs that screw into a conventional 110V socket, then the LV power supply is built into the bulb. I have had similar problems, but have had no problems if I use low voltage lamps (such as under cabinet lights or pendants) with an external power supply with a magnetic transformer.
