Default Dimmer vs savings

Hi Brains, a question is there any saving on energy by using a dimmer ?


Not in the grand scheme of things. You might save two bucks in a year.
Or there might not even be any savings at all if you frequently operate
the lights at 75% brightness, due to the dimmer's inefficiencies.
