    Ahh, dimmers and switch mode power supplies - not all a 'dimmable' LED drivers work with all dimmers even the ones that say LED compatible.


    Have the dimmers been approved for use on  that make sort of light, or triid out in advance ? At the very least are the dimmers set to be trailing edge cut, rather than leading edge cut as you would for a filament lamp.


    edit. The Vtech dimmers (and some others) can be configured for either type of dimming with flicking on and off to get into the programming mode  - has someone been playing with the settings?
