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 (http://www.homedepot.ca/product/decora-sureslide-universal-dimmer-with-preset-switch-for-for-dimmable-led-c/813567)) 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 (http://www.homedepot.ca/product/11-inch-brushed-nickel-led-ceiling-light-with-frosted-glass/825558)). 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.

I've used that same dimmer with a dimmable LED fixture (similar to this one: Hampton Bay | 3 Light Semi-Flushmount Track Bar Fixture Matte White Finish Etched Glass Shades | Home Depot Canada (http://www.homedepot.ca/product/3-light-semi-flushmount-track-bar-fixture-matte-white-finish-etched-glass-s/959920)), it all works fine together.

My first thought would be that you might have wired something wrong - some dimmers, especially LED/CFL compatible ones, it DOES matter which lead is source and which goes to the light.

I actually pulled the fixture down and reseated the ground wire. Seems to work much better now. :fullofwin:

All the wires are done correctly. I don't feel like using the fire portion of my insurance on my house. Car, whatever. House... no. :lol

NVM, just read your second post.
