Some LED bulbs are switch mode, usually flyback AFAICT. They are pretty much

We use Cree lamps where we need dimming, and in general if replacements. We still have some few legacy LED lamps in place (stuff that came-with other stuff), but we do not intend to dim those.
NOTE: some cheap LED lamps are very noisy in the RF range. VERY noisy, approaching that of an unshielded ignition transformer (oil burner).
