What's going on when you put a "non-dimmable" bulb in a socket with an incandescent in another socket (same lamp/chanderlier)? I noticed this works. Not only does it work, it works BETTER than bulbs specifically labeled "dimmable". Talk about irony!
Usually all the LEDs I've tried on my dimmers go down about 40% then up to 100%, and the transition is rough. With the non-dimmable + incandescent combo, it's pretty much 0-100% and a smooth transition.
Very strange! Too bad all LEDs can't do this by themselves. I really like the dimmer switches I have but they're not the fancy ones designed for LEDs.
