Review on 💡 LEDERA Dimmable Candelabra LED Bulb - Filament Equivalent by Eric Broad

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Try this if you can't dim these LED bulbs in your multi-bulb fixture

I have these LED candelabra bulbs in a 12-light chandelier and a 3-light kitchen light Installed. Both lights are dimmer controlled, but when I replaced my existing incandescent (non-LED) bulbs with these LEDs, the light no longer dimmed. The wall switch could turn the LEDs on and off, but when they were on, they stayed at a very low, anemic level, and the dimmer was unable to brighten them or lower their intensity. On a whim I removed one of the new LED bulbs. pulled out of the fixture and put back one of the original bulbs (not LED) which I had just removed and surprisingly all the bulbs in the fixture glowed beautifully and could be controlled with a dimmer over the full range of intensities. This worked for both the 12-light chandelier and the 3-light kitchen lamp. I don't think this is a defect in the LED bulbs, just an unexpected result of dimming the LED bulbs with a standard wall dimmer. Letting a single bulb shine in goes unnoticed and works like a champ to solve the problem. hope this helps you
