Will this work with an incandescent bulb?

This is the trim piece only and is made to fit a 4 in. recessed lighting can with par/r 16-20 size bulbs including halogen, incandescent, led, etc.

This is simply trim for a 4-inch can. If the bulb is appropriate for the light fixture, then the trim will work fine. It is nice trim. I love it in my home, and the price is right.

Yes it will work with an incandescent bulb since it is only a trim piece to cover up the recessed can light that holds the bulb. The only thing is that the trim piece does not have a reflector so you need to get a floodlight bulb that will direct all the light down. A regular incandescent bulb will throw light also to the side but it will be wasted light since most of it will not be reflected down.

Yes it should, the interior of the baffle is actually removable to accommodate different size/shape bulbs. I hope this helps. =)

I have used it with a CFL, but I don't know if it will work with a LED bulb.

It will work with halogen bulbs, will save you money and the bulbs won't heat up that much and last longer.

Yes. I use it in a lamp that is for 40 watt incandescent bulbs and it works perfect!

I say for sure but my experience is the timer works the electrical side of it all and therefore the bulbs should work as long as the electricity is flowing..., the be short and simple..., YES it should work with any bulb

I'm not sure but I don't see why not. We used ours with the existing switch so assuming is is a dimmer with appropriate bulb I would imagine it would work.

I don't know. The directions say to use an incandescent. I use mine with a 3 way bulb on high. sorry not going to be much help with that question l.

Yes it will. I had to purchase this when I installed LED bulbs into my fixtures controlled by a timer that would not support them. This works perfect.

Yes. The CFL bulb will fit. That is the type I use and it works quite well.

I don't see why not. It's basically an on-off switch. I'm using mine with a CFL with no problem (except I don't like the CFL's brightness or warm-up time). But the fixture works just fine in turning the lights on and off. I'm sure it will work equally well with an LED bulb (which is what I'm gong to do myself next time a bulb needs to be changed).

I'm not sure, but don't see why not. Is there a reason you don't want an incandescent bulb used? If you use the squiggley bulb, it may not fit.

If it's a dimmable led it will work. Check with your led manufacturer. I'm using this with a cfl and it works fine. You may get some flicker at low levels.

No! It will not work with CFL bulbs.It only works with incandescent light bulbs.

It works with my LED light, but I have noticed odd behavior when the dimmer is on lower settings. There is a momentary delay before the bulb emits light, and once the bulb is lit, it has a tendency to vary in brightness. I don't notice this with incandescent bulbs on the same switch. Full disclosure: I live in an old house so this may be a result of older wiring.

Yes this is designed for incandescent lights & halogen lights are a high efficiency incandescent light. Will not work properly with CFL but may work with LED depending on the particular bulb.

It should, but I cannot get mine to work. I tried new batteries and a bulb. I would go with something more substantial. This thing is cheap!

Most any dimmer will "work" with a dimmable bulb, but the low priced dimmers don't dim as well. Not a smooth transition, flickering, etc.
