Dimmers are a great way to set a nice ambiance and save money on your electrical bill.
Replace a regular light switch with a dimmer switch and enjoy the benefits right away.
However, if you've tried to replace a lightbulb anytime recently, you may have entered the bulb aisle and been confronted with a tough decision - there are so many bulb choices these days! It's downright overwhelming!
And, not all dimmer switches will dim all types of bulbs.
You must purchase the right dimmer for your bulb type.
Until recently, dimmers were made to dim incandescent and halogen bulbs. Replacing those types of bulbs with LED's or CFL bulbs, and your old dimmer may not function.
On top of that, keep in mind that the LED bulb itself must be a dimmable bulb.
So, if you have a dimmable LED or CFL bulb, keep reading for the styles of dimmers available.
