    Dimmable LED lightbulbs - worth it?

    I've read lots of conflicting information on the internet about dimmable LED lightbulbs. Some people have said that even if a supplier claims that a LED lightbulb is dimmable using it with a dimmer can cause issues, such as it emitting a buzzing noise, flickering and it shortens the life of the...
