Can Arcon JC10W LED Disc Bulb be Used with Dimmer
Published 04/27/2018
Question:
Purposefully deceptive? Im looking for a dimmable LED to fit my RV puck lights. These will fit and your wording is that it fits dimmable fixtures. There is no such thing as a dimmable fixture and non-dimmable fixture. Im assuming this is NOT a dimmable LED, but you want people to buy it thinking it is. Am I correct?

The Arcon JC10W LED Disc Bulb # AR50552 referenced in your question is compatible with dimmable fixtures, meaning that if your existing light uses a switch/knob that can dim the assemblies, these LED lights will function just like the incandescents they are replacing. This specification in the product description is just to note that the lights can be used with a dimming switch, as not all LED lights are compatible with this type of feature.
Dimmer controls are generally designed to work with incandescent bulbs, and the technology they utilize simply isn't always compatible with LEDs, so we try to make a note of those we have available that can be used with a dimmer.
