"No, unlike incandescent bulbs that work with almost any dimmer, LED and
CFL bulbs perform differently depending on the dimmer you install. You
will need to select a dimmer designed specifically for dimmable LED/CFL
bulbs."
Not if you use Phillips bulbs.

And exactly what are the qualifications of the author? A "text-based
adventure connoisseur"?
I'll believe the engineers who design dimmers, not the funny pages.
Of course you won't believe it, but Philips (one l, a Dutch company)
know how to design lighting systems.
I never said they didn't. But that doesn't mean their LED bulbs work
with legacy dimmers.
Independant reviews by people not selling someone else's product like
you are say they do.
