Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. is this Dimmable?

A: The simple answer is no, these are not dimmable. I don't know of any fluorescent bulbs that can be dimmed, but I did hook these bulbs up to a professional dimmer switch just to make sure. Turning the switch all the way to zero resulted in a one-stop difference from 100%. I'm sure that's not good for the bulb, not reliable, and of no practicable value, although in an absolute sense, they did dim a slight amount. I hope this answer helps.
