I'm trying to replace the 5 incandescent candle bulbs in a chandelier
with
LEDs. The only problem seems to be the dimmer switch. A switch suitable
for LEDs is deeper than the current dimmer and I don't want to start
chiseling the wall for a new back box. Does anyone know of a switch
shallower than this one?

or, alternatively, is there such a thing as a standoff?


Makes more sense to scrap the chandelier and replace
it with a single Philips Hue bulb in a new fitting.


Those phillips hues aren't very good for real lighting


BULL****.

OK to set a mood but try reading by their light and they are useless.


BULL****.
