PAstrachan Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I've had this issue from time to time with LED bulbs. I just replaced a bulb with a 100 watt bulb in a fixture with a couple other bulbs. I hadn't noticed flickering before. Now the new bulb flickers, alot. I suspect that the Triac in the dimmer is probably not always turning on. I'll try to get a scope on the socket and see if this is the issue. There are bulbs that are called flicker-free. Has anyone used these bulbs and seen any improvement? I have two switches that exhibit flickering (different circuits) one is a v4.5 and the other is v4.1. Are any of these switches known to have issues with LED flickering?

lilyoyo1 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 What dimmers are you using? Led behavior varies with different makes and models so it is possible. I use Phillip warm glow bulbs without any issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian H Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 We have seen this brought up before. Not all dimmable LED bulbs work 100% with the Insteon dimmers. With flicker being one of the problems. Different brand and model bulbs maybe better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
