RE: Led lights



Can you actually dimm any of these LED GU10's? My local electrical
wholesaler said not. He also discouraged me from buying them due to the
poor
light output compared to a standard GU10 halogen?

On a related note I tried out some of the LED GU10 240v Lamps recently from
TLC http://tinyurl.com/278ob

The idea being to power them off a LD11 dimmer unit.  The result was a
quick brighting and dimming off the lamps followed by one going pop.  The
electronics in them obviously doesn't agree with a LD11 dimmer unit.
