Doesn't the government require testing of electrical products?
I become frightened when I have a conversation like that.

If it explicitly says it should work with LED bulbs, buy it. Try it out and if it doesn't work, return the cheap china-crap piece of **** to McLowesDepot and get your money back.

At some point the china-junk manufacturers and retailers will become tired of product returns and stop screwing consumers with this mal-engineered mal-advertised china-crap.

And if it says it works with LEDs, it probably does.


But not necessarily with every kind of LED.
