    Hello. I'm planning the lighting for my new hardscaped patio. In past projects, including my front porch, I've included a dimmer on my LED lights. I saw a post here that said VOLT doesn't recommend dimming their LED lights. Can anyone tell me why? Or are there options for dimmable lights?
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Hey Joe,

    Our LED bulbs & fixtures can in theory be dimmed given the wide input voltage operating ranges, but you are correct that it is not something we recommend as we have not tested the effects of this in regards to longevity. Doing so could lead to unpredictable results and could also void warranties.

    Depending on what you're looking for, we do offer a wide range of wattages for both integrated fixtures and our LED bulbs to allow for flexibility with light outputs.
