I'm not talking about the bulbs that try to mimic incandescent, but the ones marked "cool white" or similar. Tomsic |

I'm not sure about dimming. I did decide I don't like the blue light. I took
one of the blue ones out, and put a CF back in. Going from 7 watt bulb to 11 isn't going to hurt me. Now, trying the other LED bulb in another location. Christopher A.
