WHY CAN’T ENERGY SAVING LIGHT BULBS DIM, WHEN USED ON A DIMMER SWITCH?
May 15th
Question by Jordan L:
Why cannot energy saving light bulbs dim, when used on a dimmer switch?
We have recently installed some new light fixtures and did not realize that energy saving light bulbs will not dim, they will only work on maximum power, when the dimmer switch is turned down, they just flicker.
Also does anyone know if you can purchase energy saving light bulbs that will work on a dimmer switch?

Q&A: DO THE NEW ENERGY SAVING LIGHTBULBS WORK WITH DIMMER SWITCHES?
Aug 26th
Question by Anne:
Do the new energy saving lightbulbs work with dimmer switches?
I’d like to switch but most of my light switches have dimmer switches on them.
Will this make the bulb buzz? Do they make these bulbs in a 3 way style since I have many 3 way lights as well?
Also I have quite a few IKEA ceiling light fixures that use bulbs with narrow stems, do they make energy savers like that?
Do you have a brand of bulb to advocate over any others?
I watched Al Gore’s “Live Earth” concert and went on line and promised I’d switch some of my bulbs now I need help inplementing the plan!
