Re: Dimmable CFL


 

Try adding a resistor to the output of the Crestron dimmer, or more CFLs.

I seem to recall a "minimum load" specification from somewhere. 25 watts is a number I seem to remember.

I've had to use things like this:

with other manufacturer's dimmers when controlling fluorescent and LED loads. I've never worked with anything Creston other than InfiNET lighting.

I having an issue with dimmable compact fluorescent bulbs, if I use
the CFL with an infinet dimmer it dims fine and works stable all the
way down to 10%. If I hook it to a CLX-DIM8 it does not dim in
responses to changes in level. An incandescent works fine, the only
difference is I unscrewed the incandescent and screwed in the CFL. If
I wire an incandescent bulb in parallel with the CFL both the
incandescent and CFL work fine.
I am testing using a GE Energy Smart Flood Light part # 21710. CLX-
DIM8.
