Dimming an LED

Until they can make the colour temperature of LEDs drop as they dim, Ive
decided Im going to just avoid using dimmers with LEDs as the just look
ghastly as the dim IMO.
I only have two on dimmers, all the way from full on to out. The colour
remains the same irrespective of brightness setting, but I don't have
any issue with that at all. Contrast that with tungsten, which becomes
more yellow/red as it is dimmed.
Which is exactly the effect I want when I dim a light. It creates a
€śwarmer€ť or €ścosier€ť atmosphere. Straight dimming of an ordinary LED just
make a room look cold and dingy.
