So I took the plunge and started upgrading the light fixtures in my house with LED units, however I've come up against an issue. A few rooms have dimmers installed and the first one I installed the new fixture started flickering. The dimmer is a Levitron unit designed for LED/CFL (
Leviton - Decora | Decora SureSlide Universal Dimmer with Preset Switch for for Dimmable LED, CFL and Incandescent Lamps, in White | Home Depot Canada) and the fixture itself is also designed to be dimmed (
Commercial Electric | 11 Inch Brushed Nickel LED Ceiling Light with Frosted Glass | Home Depot Canada). It's less noticeable when it's at about halfway, but at full power it's quite annoying.
Doing some reading online indicates a resistor might be useful, but I was also under the impression that one isn't necessary when using units designed for one another.
Thoughts? I don't want to install anymore if I'm going to come across this issue with the rest of the rooms.
